I hope he tries soon, so that American Cheryl Stearns can set her altitude in her planned StratoQuest Jump just over his and bring the title back to the US where it belongs. Kittinger's record has stood for 42 years.

btw -- Kittinger, after his famous jump served in Vietnam and was a POW. Big legacy.
