    So they would have had 20 minutes to figure out an eloquent way of saying he's a bag of meat pudding that just exploded all over the desert floor

    I had the whole restaurant GLUED to the T.V. (discovery channel) ...the Grill was turned off, and I was not going to miss this for anything. It was INTENSE as he reached 120,000 ft+ It was VERY neat to watch this shit LIVE!

    Thank you to World Records, Red Bull Promotions, Felix for having the balls to skydive from space at 833MPH, score for science and private space programs, not one commercial about an energy drink, 5 hours of dedicated TV time in 50 countries and live feeds on 140 of the most visited websites, giving our children dreams to believe in for less than what "insert any beer company name here" will spend on their superbowl budget. Love it!

    I would definitely open the door and look down/soil myself, but I wouldn't jump. I would ride the capsule down.

    It's good to see a company promote being a badass and doing shit nobody else would do. The next space shuttle will probaly have Redbull all over it.

    I saw their HQ in Salzburg Austria. It's in probaly the most incredible location you could imagine having to go to work.

    I would open the door and maybe look out. As long as I am tethered with multiple straps. Hell no on the jump option
