So it seems Felix has lost his title. Happened with little fanfare or energy drinks!

I watched the documentary of redbull stratos and was pretty disappointed with Felix's behavior in the film. Hopefully Alan was a little more kind to his support crew.

hopefully youre kind to your war support crew. ive seen how you belittle people and laugh about it. and ive also seen some of your landings..........

I don't land, I strike.

I don't know what will be recognized by the FAI given that he used a drogue chute after some point. That changes a lot of things for records.

I don't think it does. The first record held by John used a drogue. It was still the record.

Who is John? Joe Kittinger´s records are not FAI as far as I know. It was military.
Take care,

Yeah, joe.
