believe it or not the is some science behind this stunt
they're testing several theories as well as materials to be used in future launches with a human as the guinea pig
Energy drink company Red Bull is supporting the Stratos project with an undisclosed amount of money in the tens of millions of dollars. Project team members, however, insist that their effort isn't a mere publicity stunt.
"The objective is science. You don't go into a situation like this to set a record. You go in to get knowledge," said Joseph Kittinger, a key member of the Stratos team.
And if he safely parachutes to the ground he'll walk away with at least four new world records: the highest skydive, the longest free fall, the first to reach supersonic speeds in free fall, and the highest manned balloon ride.
