This is by far the most insane video I have ever had the opportunity to live through and make! what was literally the coldest I have ever been which is surprising considering I ice dive, and this is the highest I have ever been outside a plane! god is amazing and im sure heaven will be 10x this view! can't wait till the next wild adventure. and for everyone wondering this was all done in completely legal airspace!
Thankful for Susie my Beautiful Girlfriend and her Mom for coming out and supporting me!

I was nervous just watching. But if you think about it, he was up at 17.5k feet which is about 3.3 miles high.

If you take that distance and place it on a globe or map, it is nothing. The earth is actually quite smooth based on its scale.

The valley, ground, base, or bottom of Mount Everest is already at 17,600 feet above sea level - it’s almost like it sits on a plateau. From the ground, Everest goes up 11,400 feet. For a total of 29,000 feet. This is similar case with most other high mountains.

Technically Everest is the tallest above sea level. There is another mountain much taller in Hawaii. Mt. Mauna Kea stands (from base to tip) 33,496 feet tall. Incredibly Mauna Kea's bulk is 19,700 feet BELOW sea level, with only 13,796 of it above sea level.

@@ChuckyWright The first time I went skiing in California, it was at Mammoth mountain. 11,080 feet at the summit and you can see for days. I stood there just taking it all in and realized those mountains were there long before me and will be there long after I'm gone. It kind of put my daily worries in perspective as to exactly how insignificant they truly are in the scope of the world. It was a moment to remember. On a different note, the air is pretty thin at that altitude. Did it have any impact on the fuel air settings of the carb? Thin air can be a real problem for a normally aspirated engine.

My first jump in Vietnam was from 2200 feet. I was so scared that I couldn't even spit. My next jump seemed routine. My lowest jump was 850 feet, which kind of worried me if the chute would open, but it did without hesitation. My grandson knew that I had parachuted in the Marines and he wanted me to go with him to the classes at the local airfield, so I did. I never knew that he expected me to jump with him. I was 64 at the time and never jumped since the war, but I did it just for him. We jumped from 900 feet. I was kind of afraid, but I put my faith in God and whoever folded my chute.
