United States Air Force Captain Joe Kittinger meets Felix Baumgartner

Do yourself a favor and watch this fullscreen:

In strange way I hope it helps people realize how hard we (The United States of America) worked to achieve space flight and how hard it really still is. We made it look easy after a while. I assure it is not easy and maybe will never be easy, at least in my life time. I know at the end of the day this is really just an add for an energy drink, but even so, maybe it will inspire the next Joe Kittinger or Felix Baumgartner.

godspeed Felix Baumgartner
