The American skaydayver has set a surprising world record. The thrill-seeker Luke Eykins has jumped without parachute from height of 7,6 kilometers. The trick was broadcast on the air. The unique chance to land - to calculate a trajectory and to get precisely to the grid tense over the earth.
These two minutes, apparently, all America has concealed breath. What the jump from height more than 7 and a half kilometers without parachute and an other insurance will end with. Mad idea or world record.
It has landed closer to edge of a huge land parachute. Also I have set a new world record. Stands exult. Skaydayver Luke Eykins - the champion and a telestar.
Behind his shoulders - 18 thousand parachute jumps. Three world records and various tricks for the Hollywood movie. To decide on a jump and to become the person first in the history who without parachute and an insurance has jumped from height of 7 kilometers years were necessary.
On trainings, calculation of time of fall year has left. In process have counted that the jump will last slightly more than two minutes, the speed of fall will change.
"As soon as I will jump out of the plane, my speed will be about 150 miles an hour, air more dense therefore also the speed of fall will be lower - 120 miles an hour is lower. And before I will get here, I will turn over on a back and I will land in a grid", - Luke Eykins has told.
To turn over on a back not to suffer serious injuries. Therefore the skaydayver rehearsed all actions one seconds prior to a landing more than once.
"Here it, my parachute. The biggest with which someone jumped. But I am surprised by not the size of a parachute, but height at which it is established. It is height of two and a half thousand feet", - I explained Eykins.
It is height of the 20-storey house. The grid which area is equal to the third part of a football field is held by two construction cranes. To survive, Eykins's task to get to this square and to remain in a grid. Under it - only the earth and sand. But the most difficult - to calculate the place of a jump that flows of air have not taken down aside. That the skaydayver could be guided in flight, on perimeter of a network have established four powerful lamps. This world meant that it falls on the correct trajectory. Red - that it is necessary to adjust a rate.
