Skydiver lands safely after historic jump from edge of space
Skydiver Felix Baumgartner has made history by smashing the world record for highest skydive, after leaping from a height of nearly 40 kilometres.
The 43-year old Austrian daredevil ascended to the edge of space in a pressurised capsule suspended beneath a giant helium balloon. He then jumped back to earth, free-falling for four minutes and 19 seconds.
