Just a technical detail, but he's not free-falling from "the edge of space" since space starts at more than twice the height of where he si jumping from.

Wow, wasn't sure where the video of the balloon and capsule is coming from, and it's from Mission Control. Damn... 40 miles away and 20+ miles up or whatever.
What kind of lenses and gear do you think they're using for that?

@mg33 they also have 2 trucks with NASA technology tracking the balloon from ground with infrared cameras.

This guy sure has a lot to talk about.
- Who's doing the talking? He sounds like a guy from NBC that often does political reports.mg33

What if he just kept going to pull a prank on everyone and had to be rescued by the space station?
- Rescued by the space station? Im sure they're set up for that.CygnusZero4

If he doesn't raise a Red Bull can to his visor and pretend to drink before jumping, this will all have been quite a waste of money.
