The earth from 85,945ft

[Slappie 9]

I know there is Google Earth and other satellite pictures. I just thought this one was cooler.

85,945ft from a balloon

Pictures 7 & 8 look like normal jump altitude of 14k I'm sure I'm wrong. Which one looks the closest to exit altitude to you?

WOW!!! Those are very cool. I found myself getting anxious though as the pics went on, picturing myself in the balloon. "No wait, I want to get off..." "Too late, you're going up up UP." Man, 85k is UP there!

wow. Is it dust, or are those stars on some of the very high altitude side shots?

I wonder if that is the red river in some of those shots? Kind of looks like it.

I'm not afraid of heights but damn that is way the hell up there!!!

Just for a second imagine jumping - without a rig. It makes my heart and stomach flip flop just thinking about the first step. !!

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

Very cool...its pretty amazing how the Earth looks like one big quilt from that far up!
