BALLONIST--MAKES JUMP

[Templar]

WELL THE BALLOONIST MADE HIS JUMP AND FROM 25 MILES UP HE DID BREAK THE SOUND BARRIER----NOW THAT IS QUITE A JUMP

[Goose]

When he jumped, he yelled, "Geronimo!" and didn't hear himself until he landed. He hit 729 MPH but had to really slow down because a woman was below him. (Being jocular).

[Hansenhome]

Yes that was a big step!!

Figures. I forgot all about it yesterday. I  also fell
asleep  waiting for Neil Armstrong  to walk on
walk on the moon.

[Templar]

I HERD THAT THE MOON WALK WAS IN A HOLLYWOOD SET--ANY TRUTH TO THAT?


WHAT DO YOU TINK HIS SPACE SUIT  SMELLED LIKE AFTER DOING OVER 700 MILES PER HOUR

HOW LONG BEFORE DISNEY HAS A RIDE LIKE THAT BALLOON JUMP?

Well I think the Russians would have noticed us orbiting
the earth while they showed the movie. Since they hated
Nixon's guts I'm sure they would have narcked on him.

Did you see the  flash of light before he pulled the rip cord?
Maybe that was sound barrier?

They used do bungee jumping all the time down here
but I think they banned it when a few bungee cords stretched
a yard too hard. "And he ain't gonner jump no more."

[Pocketcoins]

What a ride !!!!         Now how will they get the guy down that made him jump? 

[Paint Your Wagon]

Turns out he is Austrian
Got three world records in one go
Highest balloon ever
Highest jump ever
Breaking the sound barrier

[longnine009]

He also has the highest speed for a skydiver-833 MPH. Since
he jumped from edge of space it's going to be hard for
anyone to do much more than tie him. He also broke
the sound barrier on the same  date that Chuck Yeager did
 Oct. 14, 1947 over New Mexico.
