Now I'm singing Major Tom in German because I thought of that song.

Just watched that, after being made fun of at church today because SMU lost to Tulane.

What an amazing feat by Baumgartner and the Red Bull crew. I can't imagine the size of the 'nads required to take that step outside of the capsule and start the free fall.
