He's going too high!

If he doesn't raise a Red Bull can to his visor and pretend to drink before jumping, this will all have been quite a waste of money.

@mg33 they also have 2 trucks with NASA technology tracking the balloon from ground with infrared cameras.

Wow, wasn't sure where the video of the balloon and capsule is coming from, and it's from Mission Control. Damn... 40 miles away and 20+ miles up or whatever.
What kind of lenses and gear do you think they're using for that?
