In case you were wondering, Felix Baumgartner, who was scheduled to jump out of a capsule floating at 120,000 feet, has cancelled his attempt for a second day in a row.
The BBC reports that like yesterday gusty winds in Roswell, New Mexico, halted Thursday's plans.
Baumgartner is trying to break the speed of sound using only his body.
The BBC adds:
"Baumgartner is trying to topple records that have stood for more than 50 years."The previous highest skydive was made by retired US Air Force Col Joe Kittinger, who leapt from a helium envelope in 1960. His altitude was 102,800ft.""What he is trying to do is extremely dangerous."
