People can withstand speeds of up to like Mach 6 or something. He just about hit Mach 1 so he wasnt exactly pushing the ultimate limit in speed here. Not that its not very impressive, just that it seems very possible

Also i believe those speeds are within an aircraft I just realized haha. What the human body can withstand outside of an aircraft I have no idea.

Keep in mind the atmospheric pressure at that altitude is just a tiny fraction of what it is at sea level. Terminal velocity changes with the shape of the object falling and air density. With almost no air molecules putting up any resistance he can easily fall faster than the speed of sound. It's all about air density. Pilots that have ejected from planes at near supersonic speeds have been killed or badly injured, but that's because the air density where planes fly is much higher.

HOAX

But once again how can you just fall when the platform is suspending unless it is holding itself up with thrust? and I feel like you would notice that or it would be mentioned...idk

The capsule was still hanging from the balloon. It had risen as high as the balloon could carry it.

They actually had valves that were able to allow helium to escape so that they could control the height of the balloon and capsule... to a degree

^^Ohhhh

Thought they did have cameras on him. They did tell him to turn them on, they calculated his top speed messuring his descent time, as well as accelerometers on himself.
