    Felix Baumgartner at the Nordschleife

    I popped over to the the Nurburgring for the off chance that the Sunday might be good weather. It was open all day and the weather was fabulous. Traffic was 'medium' considering the weather.

    Anyway my wife and I sat near the bike parking area whilst cameras were filming and photographers took pictures wondering why. There was a 'Team Audi' van there and two Audi R8. Anyway once the car drove off, we spoke to the man with van and asked what all the fuss was about. It was Felix Bum Gardener.

    Well this is the best picture my wife could get a little later. I think she thought it would make a change if we drop in on him. He will be taking part in the Nurburgring 24 race and manage an unofficial 8 min 10 second lap when I clocked him BTG.

    Ps oh and my discs which I am still hanging on to (this is them before the eight laps I managed)

    Bum Gardener. No I am not jealous of his achievement :whistle: . By the way, he is very small.

        Bealo, perhaps not from the poor photograph but surely you followed the epic jump in 2012. Do you live off the grid??? Please see below. Unfortunately as I am on my wife's iPad I cannot link the YouTube footage:-

        New first person footage of Felix Baumgartner's jump from space
        New pictures of Felix Baumgartner's record breaking jump from the edge of space have been released
        In 2012 Felix Baumgartner, an Austrian daredevil, achieved one of the most remarkable feats of modern human endeavour as he became the first man to break the sound barrier without mechanical help after a 24-mile skydive from the edge of space.
