Ngl I don't think that last world record will ever be broken, it's just impressive from a what's humanly possible level, I don't see how anyone could possibly beat that
It's crazy people in chat were talking about the tightwalking one being unbeatable but not this. The last record seems way more likely to stand for years to come.
Unfortunately, the run had to be disqualified due to him standing and trying to do that cringe-ass yoga pose in the middle. Too bad, he was really on pace to set the most impressive record ever.
Of course, saving the best world record for last. That's VERY impressive. Really pushed human society to its limits. We've reached a new age. Nobody is as cringe as that, and nobody can become that much cringe in one sitting, it will never be beaten
That red bull jump from space record by Baumgartner stood for 2 years 10 days, it was broken in 2014 by Alan Eustace. Baumgartner jumped from 38,9km (127 000 feet) and Eustace from 41,4km (135 000 feet).
You know I kinda disagree with the tightrope take. Like the police had to arrest him for doing it, but at the same time rather than giving him some petty charges and giving him a minor criminal record let him use his talent for a public show. City looks good, he gets to show off his talent, win-win.
In terms of the jump from space, while maybe not as skillful as some other records, it still takes a lot of skill and is very dangerous. The main issue I believe is the lack of wind resistance, which could lead to out-of-control spinning and kill you with the g-forces. This actually occurred on this dive, but Felix was able to regain control and get steady.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but what would cause the spinning to accelerate? Obviously he won't jump out completely level so he's gonna spin a little bit, but after that there aren't any torques acting on his body--nothing to accelerate the rotational motion. So I'm having a hard time understanding how he might end up spinning dangerously fast when he starts with so little spin at the beginning.
@@LastStar007 I’m no physics student, but maybe the wind? Its strong enough at high altitudes to affect planes, so it’ll probably be able to push a single person around like paper.
@@skymyu Sure, it can push him north south east and west like nobody's business, but the only way it could cause the *spinning* to accelerate is if it pushed on different parts of his body with different strengths (torque). AFAIK, wind doesn't do that, it just comes at you straight. You can imagine it like getting hit straight-on by a car vs it just clipping your side. If the car clips you, it'll spin you around because one side of you is being pushed and the other isn't. Get hit straight-on, you just get pushed in that direction. And wind patterns are a lot bigger than cars.
Yo lud, Ik you won’t see this but your streams and videos are always much appreciated. They always put me in a better mood and just help forget about all the problems in life. Thanks fam.
They made a small town news channel story on a man running 350 miles none stop, but filled a stadium with cheering crowds and live commentary broadcast for a man eating 76 hotdogs. I love humans so much man.
That red bull parachute thing at the start is one of those things that WOULD be easy to do if fear wasn't a factor. You'd need to know how to do it, sure, but it wouldn't require a lot of effort if it wasn't scary as fuck to drop from that high.
That guy that runs marathons doesn't have lactic acid buildup like others do. He can go forever .... It's nuts. Check out Stan Lee's Super Humans sometime Ludwig. That show is pretty crazy
Kind of off topic, but when I recognised the place the stair climbing one was in, I almost cried. Girona is where my family live in Spain and I haven’t been in eight years. It’s my childhood. Bit emotional :’)
I like that people were like “oh, strong man helping woman” but immediately after, nobody said “there’s an entire village out of camera shot behind the car he’s allegedly pulling with only his shoulder blades”
Alex Honnold climbing El Capitan without a rope doesn't make it onto a list of greatest human achievements but an asian kid juggling Rubiks cubes on America's Got Talent does. What is this world coming to?
A good friend of mine has the hacky sack world record for most consecutive kicks in a row. He’s held the record for like 20 years now. 63,326 kicks in a row and took him 8 hours with no stops
