    Did you catch the space jump yesterday? If not, a very brave Felix Baumgartner broke the record for the highest sky dive ever at 127,000 feet above Earth. (See the video of the drop.)

    See a rundown in the vid below of the camera system they set up to capture it all mid-air. Cameras were set up in the jump-off capsule, on Felix’s suit itself, and a helicopter.

    the cameras for the fall were incredible, here’s some of the first bit of footage i’ve seen.

    long-shot cameras (the ones on the bottom) were used by NASA to track spacecraft, a balloon was a piece of cake.
