[Lie-in King]

[bibblebub]

[Mamyalynne]

Wow and blurghhhhhhhhhh

[dotty.]

[pastafreak]

aarrgghhhhh.............

I thought that the Earth was bigger than that. It does not look very large to me here.

[dotty.]

that's because he's in the stratosphere

[Barmaid]

I couldn't watch that - made me feel quite dizzy. However, I do find it a miracle that he had such a huge target yet he was able to land pretty much where he intended. He could have ended up anywhere!

[joggerjayne]

It's such a relief when he controls the spin !

If you have Google Earth you can see the earth from the jump height and follow him down.
