How come the guy in the control room is giving him different readings for the height?

Someone should have thought about more internet bandwidth, cant watch it due to stop start all the time.

It's fine here. Quite exciting. Are you using the YT link?

Im using the official Red Bull Startos link / youtube.

Its been pretty poor here.

I really must look in to a quicker internet connection - O2 take the hint!

That was good! Came down a lot quicker than he went up

The descent was a bit of an an anti-climax, good mission though and at least he came back in one piece.

Over 700MPH in freefall - scary!
