Felix Baumgartner: A Record-Breaking Daredevil

Felix Baumgartner, born in 1969 in Salzburg, Austria, fulfilled his childhood dream of becoming a daredevil and going skydiving. He spent time in the Austrian military, where he practiced parachute jumping and training to land on small target zones, which helped hone his skills for what would be a record-breaking life to come.

In 1999, Felix claimed the world record for the highest parachute jump from a building when he leapt from the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He became the first person to skydive across the English Channel using a custom-made carbon fiber wing in 2003. Baumgartner also set the world record for the lowest BASE jump ever by jumping 95 feet from the hand of the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. He was the first person to BASE jump from the completed Millau Viaduct in France in 2004.

In December of 2007, Felix Baumgartner became the first person to jump from the 91st floor observation deck of the (at the time) tallest building in the world, Taipei 101 in Taiwan.
