Sometimes you have to go up really high to see how small you are.

Of course my life has changed because now everybody knows who Felix Baumgartner is.

I would've never dreamt that my skydive would trigger such gushing enthusiasm. I still don't really understand exactly what I've accomplished, although I always suspected it would be a truly spectacular moment.

I base jumped off the Jesus statue in Rio de Janeiro.

They call me Fearless Felix.

I'm more a competitive person.

I love a challenge, and trying to become the first person to break the speed of sound in freefall is a challenge like no other.
