Oh. I thought he was going up in a plane. Maybe I should read an article.

Bump- they are going to attempt to jump this morning- Sunday Oct 14. Both Discovery and Velocity are saying that they are covering it- but are currently showing alternate shows.

At 40,000 ft right now, Discovery showing it here

When Joe Kittinger jumped way back when, his article in National Geographic (I still have it) said his glove came off on the way down and he had to be treated for frostbite after he landed. He also said "Lord, take care of me now," when he jumped. Hope everything works.

Did I just hear somebody say 20 second delay? Makes sense if something does not work and they can cut away before it goes "live".

What's the red button for next to the porch?
