Alan Eustace Jumps From Stratosphere, Breaking Felix Baumgartner’s World Record
No idea that this jump was being planned or was going to take place! (www.nytimes.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
So, its Felixs turn again!
Felix said he was done jumping for a record, of course that was prior to Eustace's supposed record jump. I think Felix may be persuaded if Red Bull shows the big $$$$ again. Felix is a cool dude and the way he promoted the jump and on live TV was the best.
JMHO, a jump of this magnitude should not be kept to themselves. I'd like to see the full videos, and appreciate his not wanting to involve his company from a PR stand point.. but this is significant and mans a lot to the aviation community.
I'm looking forward to seeing his full descriptions and videos..

I just don't understand why a company that is always in the limelight and one of the largest tech companies in the world would have a senior executive make a historic jump without any fanfare and almost total secrecy.
In the article it states:
He carried modest GoPro cameras aloft, connected to his ground-control center by an off-the-shelf radio.
If he had modest(have no clue why that word was used)GoPro camera's with him then why just a video of him apparently way up in the stratosphere looking like something from the movie Galaxy, then video cuts away to landing from someone else's camera. Maybe Alan Eustace will show the complete video at the next Google Shareholders meeting.

That's how Google usually innovates - quietly. Then Samsung or Apple make their own version, advertise with fanfare, and take all credit. Let's now wait for a Tim Cook's keynote live from the Earth's stratosphere. ;)
Gee should have proof read my comment, the movie was Gravity not Galaxy
