It is on channel 5710 on Dish network and is a free channel.

I am going to wait a while before watching anymore as it is still a long time before he jumps.

Should break the sound barrier

Wings used to get ripped off planes when they did this; I wonder what will happen to him.

Reaching the two-hour mark - at about 110K feet. Few more and he’ll have the record.

I think this record will be broken in a few years. How?

Have the skydiver jump out of the Virgin Galactic spaceplane on one of its sub-orbital flights.

Imagine jumping out at 330K+ feet and sky diving all the way down!
