  3. kloetzchen says:

    An if you speak german … you can even read the better because longer Bio at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Baumgartner

    (including: “Am 7. Dezember 1999 morgens um 7:00 Uhr Ortszeit sprang er vom rechten Arm der Christusstatue auf dem Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro aus mit dem Fallschirm ab. Zuvor ließ er sich auf dem Gelände einschließen, dann kletterte er an einem mit einer Armbrust übergeschossenen Seil hinauf.”)

  4. Random Remarks says:

    The guy is Felix Baumgartner and this is one of his more known stunts.

    • Clara says:

      It’s still come major fail, if that’s what he calls a stunt.

      • kloetzchen says:

        Well, it’s a base jump, and he is one of _the_ base jumpers in the world.
        Also, this is not an original picture, it was clearly processed, because he jumped from th arm of the statue, not the hand.
        Clara – just read some background before you make up your mind about something. This actually was a big win, because it earned him the world record for lowest base jump.
        http://www.felixbaumgartner.com/site/index.html -> about felix -> about felix
        1999 “World record: lowest B.A.S.E. dive from the Christ Statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (95 feet).”

    Nope, it was not a fail, the way the picture was taken just suggests that. He did not get stuck and made the jump:

    teacher: who is the best?
    girl (boy pokes her): oh my God!
    teacher: who’s your Savior?
    girl (boy pokes her): Jesus Christ!
    teacher: what did eve say to adam after they’d had 28 children?
    girl (boy pokes her especially hard in the back): if you stick that in me one more time, i’ll break it in half!
