SETTING THE RECORDS STRAIGHT

Captain Kittinger recorded the highest skydive from a height of almost 102,800 feet, in 1960. Kittinger descended for almost 85,000 feet freefalling at a speed of 715 mph, before deploying his parachute. Update: In the desert surrounding Roswell, N.M., on Sunday, Baumgartner broke Kittinger’s world record for the highest and fastest free fall. UPDATE: Felix Baumgartner broke this record on 14 October, 2012. He jumped from a height of 128,100 feet or 39 km for the highest skydive – more than four miles higher than Kittinger’s jump in 1960, which was from 102,800 feet or 19.5 miles. He achieved Mach 1.24 and thus also broke the sound barrier.
