I'd have liked to have just sat up there on the ledge for a few minutes, enjoying the insane view, before jumping off.

It was interesting to watch the small threads and material on his suit to see when the air pressure was enough to start affecting him.

I'm thinking the next guy will just blast himself off in a rocket and then get dumped off like an ICBM warhead for re-entry. Much cooler, since you'd enjoy the ballistic arc over the top.

I saw the "jump" watch run a week or two ago at a shop in San Diego, it's fucking sick.

That's quite possible one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.

It's a nice watch but I wouldn't push it that far.
