I have no privacy anymore.

I like to challenge myself.

I always feel the danger because you might always be subject to an unexpected or emergency event.

I'm more a competitive person.

Extreme sport has only ever been about goals and the ways to achieve these goals. Adrenaline plays a part, but it's never in the foreground.

You have seen on TV how hard it is to go up 129,000 feet and how hard it is to come down.

That spin became so violent, it was hard to know how to get out of it. I was able to get it under control and break the speed of sound...I could feel myself break the speed of sound. I could feel the air building up and then I hit it.
