He has something like a 4% chance of surviving the jump


True or Clarkie?

Its something ridiculous like that. Although he has a lot of modern advances the others who dies didn't have

I'm pretty sure this isn't true. He's already done test jumps from like 60,000ft and the other month he did the final test jump from 93,000ft. Joe Kittenger did it from 103,000ft in the 60s and was absolutely fine.
Can't wait to see it personally, especially if he breaks the sound barrier and becomes the first human to ever fall faster than the speed of sound. Pretty cool stuff. As said before, if I'd been given the chance to do this, I'd do it in an instant
