    he's not using oxygen and no balloon basket and parachuting down

    As someone who did their only jumps solo as a learner, this doesn't look too scary for a first timer.

    Pushing yourself off the ledge and out of the plane first time is a bit of confusing experience. This would be a cake walk in comparison.

    Unless he passes out of course.

    Watching right now it seems like they didn’t practice this LOL. It’s like he’s being given instructions on what to do at 23,000 feet for the first time.

    He cut and dropped at 24,900 feet.

    That is 4000 feet short of Mt Everest.

    Imagine climbing that...

    while he was up there he placed 10,000 king of hearts cards with his face on it in random people's glove compartments in their cars all across america.

    go check and see if you were one of the beneficiaries

    they'll be worth hundreds of dollars on ebay

    Not impressed.. Couldn't he just go up in a single hot air balloon and jump out of the basket with a 2 man crew and achieve the same result?

    He went up not wearing a parachute.

    He didn't put the parachute on until he was up around 8K feet in the air.
