    No I know, hopefully not swimming relevant, but I’m watching this crazy Swiss guy jumping from the stratosphere today, to freefall at the speed of sound after only 30 seconds. Live on YouTube, he is entering the capsule at this moment, jumping in about 2 hours.

    UPDATE: The launch has been aborted for today, due to gusty winds.
