GoPro’s Incredible Footage of Baumgartner’s Skydive

GoPro has put together an incredible short film documenting Felix Baumgartner’s historic and record breaking supersonic skydive from space beginning with the history of these daredevils with Joe Kittinger Jr. through Baumgartner’s dive.

If you’d like to see more of Baumgartner’s dive, check out the Red Bull video showing the jump from multiple angles or another full length documentary on Rdio.

Red Bull Stratos was a scientific flight test program that saw Austrian athlete Felix Baumgartner become the first man to break the speed of sound with his own body from over 128,000 feet, accelerating to 843.6 miles per hour on October 14, 2012. The announcement states, ”We’re taking an exciting leap with Red Bull to present Mission to the Edge of Space: The Inside Story Behind Red Bull Stratos, the documentary on the historic space dive project.” For the first time ever, Felix will walk viewers through a play-by-play of his 4 minute and 20 second freefall describing what he felt as he broke the sound barrier.
