A lot of people seem to be having problems streaming it

He's getting ready to jump now

It's better in Chrome and faster.

For those in the UK/Ireland, it's live on BBC news. Cool audio

Didn't watch the whole thing.

So did he really break the sound barrier? Must have felt awesome at that speed!

Last time I checked they were still analyzing whether he done it or not. That was last night though.

Been reading about this project for a while...this guy must need a wheelbarrow to hold his balls when he walks.
And yup..he did break the sound barrier...but quite a bit, hit mach 1.25 based on prelim info.

I streamed the whole jump in Chrome too. Worked beautiful...love it

He actually said he couldn't feel anything because of his suit. But I agree, Fearless Felix has balls of steel. That first step off the balloon's platform was amazing.

I watched it later on the news and it was really mind blowing..
