90,000 foot sky dive? (17 miles)

[smokey the elder]

This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

"This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do

- David Bowie

I was thinking of this very song when I saw the report the other night!

[RICHARD]

A 4,000 foot stunt that was way more dangerous?
