That site doesn't tell you that Brian (the test pilot) is 51. not bad for an old dude. Or that the highest free fall ever was from a bit over 100,000 feet - and the guy reached a top speed of over 1100kmh before slowing down to 200kmh when entering the atmosphere proper. He holds some recored for being the only person ever to go faster than the speed of sound without any mechanical assistance.
