Skydiving is a powerful sport. A man jumped from a high altitude with a parachute on his back, then opened the umbrella bag and landed safely, which made the viewer feel the thrill and enjoy it. But if someone jumps from a height of 39,000 kilometers, it will be very scary. Because the plane we usually take only flies in the air of 1 10,000 meters, and 39,000 meters is almost three to four times the flying height of the plane.

1969, a man named Felix baumgartner was born in Salzburg, Austria. He served in the army and mastered skydiving technology, and later became an extreme athlete. Until today, he has participated in more than 2,500 related performances and landed in many places such as airplanes and skyscrapers. With these performances, Felix has also become a world-famous extreme athlete and is very popular. After that, he constantly challenged new extreme goals, set new records and achieved success.

Before that, he tried the 10 1 tall building in Taipei, conquered the Mexican Merta building and experienced it in the crypt in Mamet. But all these seemed to be "ground activities", so he later decided to give a "fresh performance" at an altitude of 65438+100000 meters.

On March 12 and 15, Felix specially gave a special aerial performance. He came to New Mexico, put on all the equipment, and then took a balloon to an altitude of 2180,000 meters. Later, he landed successfully and became the third big man in the world to complete this kind of high-altitude landing.

The Austrian seems to have a natural willingness to challenge, so he set his sights on the goal of 39,000 meters above sea level. This height is almost to the ozone layer, almost to outer space. At the same time, there is no oxygen at an altitude of 39,000 meters, and the temperature is MINUS 57 degrees. If ordinary people run to such a high altitude, they may not be able to jump, but Felix spent $202,000 on a spacesuit and prepared it for five years, just waiting to become famous in one fell swoop.

Later, with the attention of the whole world, Felix wore a valuable spacesuit and sat in a balloon. Two and a half hours later, he reached an altitude of 39,000 meters, almost in the ozone layer. He jumped up at once and stayed in the air for 4 minutes and 22 seconds. So what happened later?

The data shows that when he was falling, the speed of his free fall reached an astonishing 1 173km/h, but Felix also landed successfully. But not long after, Alan eustace, a Google tycoon, jumped from 465,438+0.4 million meters and landed safely, setting Felix's record in one fell swoop.

However, skydiving is not suitable for ordinary people, because the process of skydiving is divided into free fall and slow landing. In these processes, people will stay in the sky with very bad air environment for a short time. Once the equipment breaks down, hypoxia, low temperature and landing accidents will cause unnecessary casualties. So, if you are really interested in this sport, you need to be careful. After all, life is precious, and this time it is worth cherishing. Of course, skydiving can better reflect the Excellence of extreme athletes like Felix.
