Video: Felix Baumgartner’s Space Jump

Jumping from 128,100 feet above the Earth’s surface, GoPro’s HERO2 cameras documented every moment of the record breaking feat. Back in October of 2012, Felix Baumgartner broke the speed of sound while free-falling from the edge of space, setting three world records in the process.

Felix ascended in a stratospheric balloon, then made the insane plunge. Red Bull and GoPro published the glorious HD footage on January 31, 2014.
