The LEGO version of Felix Baumgarnter’s space jump by Zoomin_Canada

 

Baumgartner set the world record for skydiving yesterday. Plunging approximately 39km (128,000 feet) and reaching a speed of 1,342 km per hour (834 miles per hour) – that’s Mach 1.24.

He also set the altitude record for a manned balloon flight, parachute jump from the highest altitude and greatest free-fall velocity.
