Felix Baumgartner successfully leapt from an
altitude of more than 70,000 feet last week -- and that was just a trial. It's all part of Baumgartner's attempt to complete a record-breaking
120,000 foot "spacedive" later this year and, based on early returns,
he seems well on his way. The idea behind last week's run was to test out the balloon
and pressurized capsule, though Baumgartner is apparently hoping to
complete another jump from about 90,000 feet above ground, before
attempting the record breaker sometime this summer. For more details on this, check out Red Bull Stratos' video below:
