He would have broken the sound barrier in the first 30 - 60 seconds. He was up over 700 mph at that point.

Turboface · 10-14-2012, 11:35 AM

YouTube is down. I have a feeling it has something to do with this jump - lol.

Im not sure they did not say he did i will wait for the news conference

Lace · 10-14-2012, 11:41 AM

That was truly insane! They cut once when he was spinning out of control, but went right back.

Is it official that he didn't break the sound barrier, and missed the free fall record? It did look like he pulled the chute a little early.

Last I saw it went from 6.6 mil to 6.7 mil viewers in a few seconds, literally.

Freefall I'm pretty sure he missed. But the sound barrier stuff they said would be pretty early on in the decent, while he had the least resistance. So I would think he managed to get this one.

When is the press conference?

To break the speed barrier he had to go faster than 690mph. I saw on the screen at one point her was way over 700mph.

I think it's just not official yet, but it probably will be.

Ya, he did hit over 700mph.

I hope he did, I will be very disappointed if he did not.

Actually, there is no "the" sound barrier. In very high altitude or colder environments sound barrier can be broken faster than in lower altitudes or warmer environments.

In space, you could break the sound barrier easily if you traveled only with your cars speed at earth, but opposite it would be harder to reach the speed in space if you want to break the sound barrier undersea.

Sure, Mach 1 is what "the" is compared to here, but sound barrier is always relative to the environment you're in. Just like pressure, energy and your fluids boiling point

That said "Est Speed" if I recall correctly.

Thumbs up to the man who needs no parachute...Kinda.

Poppy · 10-14-2012, 12:45 PM

IMO it was more ballsy when Kittinger jumped, but with that said, Felix's jump was ballsy as well. Exciting to watch and cool to see Kittinger with him there on the mic.

Si · 10-14-2012, 01:34 PM

I'm sure I read 720mph maybe more at one point.

He didn't get the freefall record though, he done about 4:20 and think the record was 4:40 or more. But he reached much higher speed that's for sure!

I remember watching a program during the week about this and they said it might be more difficult because he would be travelling much faster than kittinger thus making the higher jump, shorter in effect.

If that was wrong then maybe he pulled it early because he couldn't see, he said his visor was fogging up. I would have pulled it aswell if I couldn't see lol (as if I'd ever do what this guy did! He's amazing!). I hate wearing sunglass or goggles with a bit of fog on them

Totally amazing to watch!

Joseph Kittinger's 4 minutes, 36 second record from 1960 still stands.

He pulled the chute early to maximize Redbull brand exposure for the cameras.

Figures delivered by Brian Utley, representative of the National Aeronautics Association, the US arm of the international organization of record, during the Red Bull Stratos press conference say Baumgartner hit 834mph (1,342kph) or mach 1.24 during his freefall.

It says this on redbull website

Mission Success! Felix makes historical jump. With preliminary data: 1st to break the speed of sound in freefall and several other records.

The guy who jumped today had a much better suit. We've come a long way.

Wow. He crushed it then! Wtg, Felix!

That's Joe Kittenger, the last record holder from the 1950s or 1960s... A vet.

mikesouth · 10-15-2012, 05:04 PM

come on guys yall are better at math and physics than that

first the sound barrier (Mach 1) is a function of many things, but mostly air density at his starting altitude the sound barrier would have been much lower than it is at sea level, BUT the lower his altitude the higher mach one goes and the SLOWER he goes...so deploying the chute when he did had NOTHING to do with it, my that time he had slowed to a terminal velocity of at most 150-200 MPH.

The question is did he reach a high enough speed in the thin air to to hit mach one at some point in the fall, remember as he goes down, mach one goes up AND he starts slowing down once he hits terminal velocity.

Most reports say that he did but he is likely NOT the first person to do it, Kittenger almost certainly did it back in 1959, though that has been argued for a long time.

it has been confirmed and the other guy was much slower

Yeah, I read that today. I take back my retarded comment. Clearly the man has much bigger balls than I do.

Much bigger.
