jamespruden 0 #28 October 24, 2006 As far as i know this is the highest balloon jump / skydive recorded, however i could quite easily be wrong. Not sure it counts as a regular skydive but it would be one hell of a ride. http://www.aerospaceweb.org/question/aerodynamics/q0243.shtml Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kingbunky 3 #34 November 18, 2006 QuoteDoes a baloon take a long time to get to altitude? okay, it's a late reply, but it's a reply. no, they don't take long at all. i did my balloon jump last year, about this time and by the time i finished farting around with my helmet (trying to fiugre outif i could get my toque on under it) , we were at jump altitude. missed the whole damn ride."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."
