The Austrian extreme athlete survived many spectacular feats. He has now died in a paragliding accident in Italy. He was 56 years old.
Noise was his specialty. The noise of the aircraft, the roar of the wind. And also the media's roar whenever this man once again achieved something that seemed impossible to the people far below him on Earth. On October 14, 2012, the career of extreme skydiver Felix Baumgartner culminated in an attempted jump from the stratosphere. To be precise, from a height of 39,045 meters.
