Felix Baumgartner POV Video - Red Bull Stratos

GoPro has released some high def video of the Red Bull Stratus space jump from 2012 from the point of view of Felix Baumgartner.

This is like Gravity in real life. Just awesome stuff.

I feel so blessed to be around and witness this along with everyone on the Internet. Space has been around longer than all of us, but the technology and human determination has made it even closer for a lot more people. (Plus, it's creative marketing for Red Bull, so kudos to marketing team).

October 14, 2012, Felix Baumgartner ascended more than 24 miles above Earth's surface to the edge of space in a stratospheric balloon. Millions across the globe watched as he opened the door of the capsule, stepped off the platform, and broke the speed of sound while free falling safely back to Earth. Felix set three world records that day—and inspired us all to reach beyond the limits of our own realities, and reimagine our potential to achieve the incredible.

GoPro was honored to be a part of this epic achievement, with seven HERO2 cameras documenting every moment. From the airless freeze of outer space, to the record-breaking free fall and momentous return to ground—see it all through Felix's eyes as captured by GoPro, and experience this incredible mission like never before. No one gets you closer than this.
