i watched it online, to say his initial fall from the pod was spectacular is not doing it justice!

superb effort, balls of steel.

And in HD... I have been waiting for this for a very long time.

I still never full understand exactly how redbull has SOO much money it can sponsor everything... I mean how much of that crack juice can people really drink?

Its through sponsoring everything that they are so successful! Subtle marketing everywhere within extreme sports seemingly leads to huge brand loyalty. And less face it, its nearly 95% profit everytime they sell a can!

I know they sponsored the Stratos but in most other cases they actually own it e.g. their F1 team and the Red Bull Air Race. Pretty sure I read before that they make more money out of the others things than they do the drink now!
