The jump itself was pretty cool... but... if it were me, I would have taken a moment to enjoy the view.

Red Bull and Felix are Austrian! I'm pro USA, but why should they have an American flag on the capsule?

However... when Apollo 8 went around the moon, when they saw earthrise for the first time, they stopped everything and looked at home...
I'm not minimizing the accomplishment at all.. I just thought it interesting that he is in a position that no other human will be in for a long long time.. and he didn't stop to smell the roses. The romantic in me would have.
