After I gave this issue some more thought, it occurred to me that Felix proved you can jump from 24 miles up from a standing start. It's not going to be so easy if your vehicle is on its way to accelerating to the escape velocity of 25,000 miles per hour to head "out there." And if you're on your way home from "out there," you're re-entering the atmosphere at a pretty good rate.

I admire the man's courage, but the real benefits go to Red Bull as a result of the publicity.

.. but the real benefits go to Red Bull as a result of the publicity.

I guess that's reasonable as they're the sponsors and have ploughed more than a few quid into the project As has already been said, the project has little real value in terms of scientific advances. It's been done because it could be done

Well, I've never done anything like this before. But I'll give it a go.

What we'll do see, is put head cams on the bulls and then you wear my logo on your backside and,.. frontside and on either side as well.
We want as much "meteor" coverage as possible

Now for the logo uncovering ..

Can't help thinking of some poor old Andean Condor, peacefully gliding along around FL160, looking for a feed...
