Test jump from 21.8 km

Later this year Felix Baumgartner aims to jump from the edge of space
at 36.6 km. On March 15 he made a successful test jump from an
altitude of 21.8 km

The YouTube description reads:

On March 15, 2012, Austria's Felix Baumgartner jumped out of a space
capsule from an altitude of approximately 71,580 feet as the Red Bull
Stratos project moved forward into the manned flight stage in New
Mexico.

The 42-year-old rode the space capsule attached to a giant helium
balloon above the so-called "Armstrong Line." The goal of the Red Bull
Stratos project is to see Baumgartner attempt a record-breaking
freefall from 120,000 feet this summer where he'll potentially become
the first man to go supersonic without the support of a vehicle.
