parachute jump from a height of 41.4 kilometers performed 57-year-old Alan Eustace, one of Google’s deputy, breaking records set two years ago by Felix Baumgartner. At the height from which it sprang was helium balloon.
In the first phase, during free fall, daredevil propelled itself to 1322 km / h, thus exceeding the speed of sound. He landed 100 kilometers from Roswell, where there was a start of the balloon.
In contrast to the widely commented in media stunt Baumgartner, Alan Eustace set his record without fanfare. Jump from such a height was his dream life and the whole three years of preparations financed from its own resources. Patronage and support wanted to ensure Google, but Alan refused, explaining that he does not want to change the fulfillment of a life dream in event marketing.
