Sky diver breaks sound barrier

From the site:
Austrian sky diver Felix Baumgartner and the Red Bull Stratos team will attempt to break the human free-fall record. If successful, Baumgartner will break four world records: highest manned balloon flight, free fall from the highest altitude, supersonic speed in free fall and longest free-fall time.



P.S.

He succeeded
