For now, it seems Felix and Red Bull are set on completing this task, regardless of the inherent dangers. Dangers that ABC reporters describe as having the ability to “cause potentially lethal bubbles to form in his bodily fluids, a condition known as ‘boiling blood.”

“It’s all about what we do now and accomplish now. We’ve made it so far, there’s no way turning back.” Felix Baumgartner
