Saw a wonderful program about this program on PBS.
I think he reached the speed of sound on his descent but felt no sensation of falling. Said it was if he was suspended & the Heavens were retreating. How amazing would that be...

I believe the balloon gondolas for the high altitude flights are on display at Wright Patterson Air Force Museum. Well worth the trip to Dayton,OH.

Joe Kittinger also spent 11 months in the Hanoi Hilton during the Viet Nam War. A Florida native, Kittinger now lives in the Orlando area.

I've been absolutely fascinated with Operation Man High for years now. Here's a treat... one of my favorite music video with video heavy on the jump (.wmv format linked).
