Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

According to the papers this morning he hit 833.9 mph!

I thought I saw 730+ on the video yesterday while he was falling so I don't know where they got that number from.

The capsule parachuted back to earth, I think the balloon itself is either cut away or deflates and comes back down with the capsule.
