42,266 FEET WORLD RECORD HALO O2, 3-WAY SKYDIVE 

Thanks for the calculations, and no words about the testis 😮😅 shrinking..!!?

Terminal velocity would be considerably higher in thin air, at that altitude.

Buts also much thinner air so it doesn't feel the same

@@giespel68came to say the same thing

You forgot about air density and its role in terminal velocity as well as the “winds’” chilling effect

I found it kinda boring how they spent the whole free fall pretty much just holding hands. Especially with all that free fall time.

Awesome stuff! That was a great jump!! Thanks for the memories. 🙏🙏

How much does this sort of thing cost?

@@wf3363 If you're seriously interested, hit me up in my DM. I'm the Tandem Instructor for the jumps. We do: Regular Skydives, No O2 14,500ft -$355.00-(45sec freefall) (Includes pics and video from outside videographer) **Only Drop Zone in the world that goes to 41K** HALO O2 Skydives: 28,000ft- $5,000.00-(1min, 45sec) 36,000ft- $65,000.00 -(2min, 17sec) 41,000ft- $100,000.00 -(3min freefall) No Risk, No Reward No Risk, No Story Who Dares, Wins

@@onelifetoriskWow! Why the huge price jump between each level? Did I read that right? $2000 per extra second?

Cessna 441 Conquest II is good for low to mid 40's.

That was the oxygen jumpmaster, he did not jump, he took his gloves off to have maximum dexterity in turning the other jumpers oxygen valves on.

It is a Cheyenne 400LS, it is at a baro altitude of FL410 and a GPS altitude of 42,266'

In order to be HALO World Record....it's Not Only feet high jump...it's also feet at opening. For those who have not mentioned HALO means H= High A= Altitude L= Low O= opening . Everybody is excited about height...What altitude did they open at?? That is HALO. Otherwise it's just a high altitude jump.

I think they opened about 5,000 ft. as I recall, probably higher than necessary to set a "low" jump record. I heard over 25 years ago about a military team that would practice jumping at 25K ft and open at 1,500 ft. at night. It's the low altitude opening at night that takes the nads of special people. @@psgsurferm8202

Been there done that. Haze Gray and Underway.

No you didnt

@@oldmanandthesea3384 Not to mention getting any fillings in your teeth redone first!

Please explain this comment? Thank you​@@JelMain

Thank you!!🙏🙏🙏

That's the song they should have played. 😲

42k feet,8miles, thats medival?

And when you touch down, you’ll find that it’s stranger than known.

Bring it!!💪💪

Come see us at the USAF.

That's an SF Low-Opening jump. 300 feet.

Cheyenne 400LS

@@onelifetorisk Thank you for answering my question. In the light of it, I understand better the choice of this plane to accomplish your extraordinary record. This plane itself has extraordinary performances which were pushed by a legendary pilot . An extract from what I discovered on wikipedia: The 400LS made aviation history on 16 April 1985 by setting two new time-to-climb records for its class (C-1e Group 2, 3000m and 9,000m) and shattering two time-to-climb records for all turboprop classes (6,000m and 12,000m): with retired United States Air Force Brigadier General Chuck Yeager at the helm of N400PS (with co-pilot Renald "Dav" Davenport flying right-seat), the aircraft departed from Portland-Hillsboro Airport's Runway 31L, immediately reached a 5,959-foot-per-minute climbout and achieved its 3,000m record in 1 minute, 47.6 seconds; the 6,000m record in 3 minutes, 42.0 seconds; its 9,000m record at 6 minutes, 34.6 seconds; the 12,000m record at 11 minutes, 8.3 seconds (time-to-altitude records were captured by on-board video camera aimed at relevant panel gauges, timed with superimposed timer; also verified by Hillsboro Airport tower personnel via radar, using encoded altimeter data transmitted from aircraft to tower via transponder). Other records later set by the 400LS, again piloted by Yeager in 400LS N4118Y (later reregistered as N46HL) for the C-1e Group 2 class, were: Miami-to-Boston, Miami-to-New York City, San Francisco-to-Charleston, West Virginia, San Francisco-to-Cincinnati, San Francisco-to-Los Angeles, New York City-to-Paris, Washington, DC-to-Paris and Gander-Paris.

It is a Cheyenne 400LS, which is certified to a baro altitude of 41,000'. The GPS altitude is used for the record, in this case the GPS altitude was 42,255'. The Cheyenne 400 does not struggle to reach these altitudes, it has 1,675 HP per side. Chuck Yeager set the time to climb records for this class of turboprop, and all turboprops, in 1985, records still stand: 3k meters, 9842’, 1min, 45 sec, 5184 fpm 6k meters, 19685’, 3 min, 43 sec, 5320 fpm 9k meters, 29527’, 6 min, 34 sec, 4413 fpm 12k meters, 39370’, 11 min, 8 sec, 3546 fpm

And the contrail evaporated just like in the old days!

Great question! No, we didn't receive any kind of wind burn or frost bite to our exposed faces. We were heavily bundled up with multiple layers to include battery operated socks, gloves, and vest.

@@onelifetorisk Thank you and great skydive

That cord is a push to talk switch that runs to a radio for communication. I would not consider it a snag hazard, it would simply pull away. This was the highest 3 way on record, there are no higher claimed jumps in the USA except for the 100,000 + altitude jumps made from the helium balloons, and those were solo drougefall jumps.

Thanks Mike. I was thinking Johnney Florez's wingsuit jump was over 40k, but it was not. 9 minutes of flight though. My best was an 18,000 ft. six way wingsuit jump. Not much, but still a good time.@@michaelmullins8328

Lol!🤣

FlySight GPS attached to each jumper.

@@onelifetorisk Cool. I retired before GPS went mainstream. Yeah. I'm THAT OLD! 😁

Thank you, Ma'am!🙏🙏

He has to take it down slow on the extreme HALO O2 jumps, so he lands shortly after we land.

You have to break zero g. Our ozone skims the solar wind into a blue haze. At the point which you no longer free fall is the point the sunn doesn't turn the sky blue for you. That's a scientific and existential point to think upon

about a minute per thousand feet of altitude

Of course 😊

@@catherinewairimu2319 Sweet. It looks pretty chilly up there so I’ll pack a big woolly jumper. But can we jump from 80,000 feet?

You flat earth people are nuts

It has a great engine installation - Honeywell TPE331-14.

It won’t

After doing a little research I found that the technical specs for the Piper Cheyenne 400lS indicates it has a "service ceiling" of 41,000 ft. That's not it's absolute altitude capability, but the height at which it will climb at 100 ft/minute under standard conditions at gross weight. Thus, when it's loaded with less than gross weight, it can climb at 100 ft/min. to an even higher altitude. So 42,666 ft was likely the GPS altitude read on this particular day when the plane was loaded at less than gross weight. It likely had enough fuel to fly that high with sufficient reserves for a safe return to an airport directly below it. A very well planned mission. @@raymondherbst7126

It definitely will, it is certified to 41,000' baro altitude, I am the pilot and I have been to 41,000' numerous times. The altitude of 42,266' was the GPS altitude, and the GPS altitude is what is used for the record altitudes.

If you really are the pilot, I'm very impressed with what you did. If not, I'm still impressed with the true pilot. I tend to believe you. Nice video. @@michaelmullins8328

Yeah, Alan has an awesome story. Very impressive. This is about as high as we can go with the equipment and plane that we are using.

I jump out of planes all time. When they are on the ground.

You would die.

Infantry all the way! 11Bravo.

Thank you!! I greatly appreciate the support!! It means a lot.
