In October of 2012, we were all mesmerized by Felix Baumgartner’s amazing skydive from the edge of space. At the time, it was amazing to watch the entire event unfold in real time, with footage being streamed back to Earth. It is still just as compelling to watch the jump unfold today. But now, we have a new video that shows us that record setting skydive as we’ve never it before. This footage was captured by several GoPro cameras that were affixed directly to Felix as he fell through the atmosphere, giving us his perspective for the first time. It is amazing stuff to be sure.
