The actual live feed...on 20 second delay so no Fox News shenanigans should happen if his suit rips and his blood boils.

I like how they don't realize that the mic is still on when he steps away. Lots of heavy breathing and throat clearing.

About that edge-of-space Jump: A coresponding fall to a schoolroom globe begins 1 millimeter above its surface. I'm just saying.

You can only go so high before jumping out would just result in you floating there.
