I just couldn’t resist doing an update to my Felix Baumgartner Completes Record-Setting Space Jump! post. Though I loved the content, if not the quality, of the “actual event” video included in that post, it occurs to me that it might not have been as much “fun” to watch for a lot of you as it was for me. With that in mind, I’m reblogging a couple of shorter, “prettier” videos from two of my fellow bloggers.
This first video is from The Friggin Loon, who may not have been as impressed with Baumgartner’s feat as I was but nevertheless posted a very nice video in honor of it:
Via So Felix Baumgartner Didn’t Explode
For piles of smiles, The Friggin Loon is always a good site to visit. 
This second video is from one of my very favorite sites for space-related stuff, Jason Major’s Lights in the Dark blog:
Via Man Falls to Earth From Space* and Lives!
Checking out the rest of Jason’s post is highly recommended!
I want ice water.

This was an Amazing journey! one 5 yrs in the making… Great to watch..
Hope you are still flying high also IzaakMak? 
Sue
It was really great to watch Sue, and inspirational too. I really hope it will get us thinking about space again!
I thought the original 10 minute video was awesome. I was sitting w a big grin on my face all the way down..
It was definitely the best of the “full jump” videos, but I would’ve preferred that it wasn’t of someone’s television screen. I posted these videos because they were much more polished. My big grin didn’t come until I saw him on the ground. Up til then, I was a stunned and drooling idiot sitting with his mouth hanging open!
This event was superb I watched it Live
and it was truly groundbreaking stuff, can
you imagine the view from the edge of our
atmosphere? Wow brilliant
I hope that your evening is going well Mak
Androgoth
I’ve dreamed my whole life of having such a view Androgoth. But I’d prefer mine with the door close thank you!
Oh shucks IzaakMak, thanks for the kind words. I just read that all the telecasts were delayed for 20 seconds just in case he did implode.
Thanks Loon, I wondered why the television and the live stream showed different altitude numbers on the way up!
It’s simply amazing It almost brought tears to my eyes, as he was about to land terra firma.
I had tears in my eyes from the moment he jumped until he touched down!
