Google’s Vice-President Alan Eustace is seen wearing a specially designed pressurised space suit as he prepares to make a record-breaking skydive from the stratosphere over New Mexico Friday. Eustace was lifted up 41,420 metres by an enormous balloon, the Paragon Space Development Corporation said, and remained in a free fall for approximately 4.5 minutes before landing safely nearly 43.4km from his launch point, setting a world record for the highest skydive and breaking the sound barrier in the process. Eustace landed safely on the ground just 15 minutes after he was lifted into the air.
