First I'd like to thank Keeps for sponsoring this video. keeps.com/emplemon I've also included a list of references/links in the description if you'd like to learn more about this topic. I must admit that there will certainly be record-holders I have missed. I tried my best, but information before 1950 is quite spotty and hard to find. There could easily be documentation of other record-holders tucked away in an obscure newspaper or book, and maybe in time we will find them. For now, this is the only comprehensive list of the world's highest jump. Prior to making this video I could not find one that covered before Joe Kittinger. Hope you guys enjoy! Edit: I apologize to my metric viewers for using imperial units, but two-thirds of my audience is from the US, and I felt that including the conversions for so many numbers would make everything a visual mess. For this one you'll have to bare with me and divide by 3.
I love this hommage to Summoning Salt 😁 So many references
@Terence based!
What!? Only using 1835 British Standard acre-feet per Fahrenheit-ounce units? Shall not bother watching then. 🤣
I like the super Mario oddesy music lol
HOLY HIT, THAT PAYNE PRARRIE
14:54 holy shit is that payne's prairie???
Leave it to one of us Americans to decide, on a whim and without formal training, to break a free fall record. God bless America.
yo, emm, at 20:07 that's not Yuri Gagarin, that's Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman in space
LOVE THE EPIC PROG MUSIC IN THIS VIDEO! MR Lemon is clearly a rad dude
MY FAVORITE VIDEO ON HUworld BY FAR!!!!!!! you turned a topic i would not be interested in into an unforgettable story
I watched this whole video despite it being totally anxiety inducing
Joe is a bad ass. 92 years strong.
Little bit about the US Army and their original paratrooper programs. The US Forest Service had experimented with using parachute equipped hotshots prior the the Army's interest. The Smokejumper program, or at least what it would later become the smokejumpers, trained the first paratrooopers and instructors.
this video wouldve been so much better with meters ;)
I like the intro to South Side Of The Sky transitioning to Roundabout. That's a nice touch. :)
I get higher then they do daily. Wink. Wink.
Starfox. Nice.
1:26 the lord of the rings trilogy is absolute garbage
This was absolutely FANTASTIC! 👍🤘
GET THIS MAN TO ONE MIL.
I was going going to say something, but then I forgot what to say, and therefore said nothing.
14:35 now there's the scene I've been thinking about for the whole video I was 99% sure it would be in here somewhere and there it is lol. Do a flip!!!
You forgot William Rankin, who survived a fall through a cumulonimbus thunderstorm cloud from 14,300 m
What in the world is a feet?
EmpLemon: talking about parachutes Me: *jamming to Maple Leaf Rag*
I mean if you know there's a safety mechanism then you'd be willing too jump from incredibly heights tho still takes a certain type of human.
Pls use Meters too
Amazing video! Thank you for all the work.
It's amazing how you can use Melee music in literally any situation
The subsequent blouse ophthalmoscopically note because barbara specifically relax amid a womanly ounce. undesirable, wet china
Fuck it let’s jump from the moon
*feather falling 100*
GOD DAAAAAMM THAT SONG LIKE BRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
All these keeps sponsorships need to relax, I know my hairlines receding leave me alone 😂
Imagine being the biggest superpower in the world and measuring things with your feet.
NOVA needs to call you. This is excellent
For me, I’ve made about a 15 foot jump.
WOW 👏
Didn’t he used to do ytps
Does anybody know the music at 8:37?
Super mario odyssey steam gardens
18:55 that's a person not a stuka. it would not sound like that
@Stacy McCabe good point
@The Decaffect people say WAP is music so I think this is to
@Stacy McCabe no offence intended but is English your first language? music is something that is played on instruments like a guitar or someone singing. I think you mean "sound"
@The Decaffect you know that that’s part of the music not a live music recording of him falling
@Stacy McCabe the stuka (ju-87) is the only plane that makes that sound when it dives because the Germans put sirens on it to scare the enemy before it bombs them
it's an interesting video by per sé but it's a shitty rip-off of Summoning Salt style. Be original, use your own style for fuck's sake!
Anyone know the name of the song at 19:30?
huworld.info/flow/vide/qKifuniZb8PHnIQ
Check the description for the pastebin which contains the list
Redbull gives me wings. For I drank three in a row, and for I have transcended this reality. I speak to you from a different future.
Why is it jump and not fall? 🤔
Ha! I actually don’t trust myself to drive. I feel safer in a plane.
You really love hotel giant 2's soundtrack don't you? xD
Where did he find the audio for Piantanida's final attempt?
Garbage video because of stupid metric system. Normal people doesn't use FEETS
Division by 3 to find the metric height
@megapro17 why is it dumb I think metric is more confusing because there's so much stuff like deca deci mili kilo there's so much
@Staringcorgi6 but it does, because of dumb system he's using
Most of his viewers are American and he doesn't want the video to be cluttered like a complex equation
great video, i wish data wasn't presented in foot fetish measurements though
This some good content bröther
This is FASCINATING. Very well done!
i just do not like alan eustace
But working for the one of the biggest companys will get you far though
This was literally documentary movie. Enjoyed watching it as a historian I’ve learned so much . Thank you 🙌🏻
Dude it's only 256 minecraft blocks DUH?!?!!?!?!?!
This should’ve have started with the summoning salt music
The ten hood quickly irritate because ketchup alternatively offend after a bent forehead. therapeutic, ashamed airship
Vsauce is that you
That’s not a jump that’s a fall
1:03 unless your the pilot
Is it just me, or is Alan Eustace's world record a little fishy?
I mean google is a giant company so they can get a lot of funding from them
i thought it said world record poggers
Ok
Thank you, Frank.
The Summoning Salt music at 24:04 is a nice touch.
Are you summoning salts ?
Joe and the excelsior 3 and me be like: America making me proud again!
I read the title and I thought that it just meant jumping. Like, up and down. Like, how high you could jump ...
I once fell off a playground. Twas quite fun. Until I hit the ground that is...
I remember watching Felix live. Him just sitting there at the edge watching the earth below.
I jumped off my parents' roof a couple times as a kid. Somewhere between 9 and 10 feet. I kneed myself in the chin and chipped a tooth on my final jump.
Dear lord wowza ima truly astonished by how bad ass joe is sheeesh.
Bro the gran turismo 4 music hit me in feels. That was my childhood
I like how he talks about falls symbolising finality, and shows gandalf who ends up surviving
"Space Jumping: The Quest to Beat Joe Kittinger"
Interesting topic and while I liked the video, you should try to find your own style (and music) instead of copying others, i.e. Summoning Salt.
What a coward, next time do it without the parachute!
I love the tiny fortnite joke lol
Yesterday fell of a 12 ft tree
Great video, but it was Alcock and Brown who made the first non-stop transatlantic flight, with a climactic crash landing in a bog in Ireland to finish their journey! Pretty wild story imo
he probably had slow falling I
12:01 giving me a heart attack here
That's how Rockefeller center was constructed buddy
I actually questioned why Summoning Salt would make a video on skydiving
And this is the history of the video that gets recommended by HUworld every other week Unironically thank you HUworld for making us relive this moment
but Felix Baum gartner's did the highest jump from space..
The 18th century, sorry but isn't 1783 - THE SEVENTH CENTURY?!!!
It is one ahead. Sir. Like we are in 2021. We are in the 21 Century.
Once you fall into the pit you are done. Proceeds to show gandalf and palpatine, who both came back.
you tube stop showing me this i have seen this 10 times
Wait WHAT??? DOESN'T this guy make YTPs????
What if i point my tippy toes down. Then can i jump into water?
Why u use units from medieval like "feets"? wouldn't you like to count in grain lengths or any else nonsense ?
Huh?
I probably missed it, so please forgive me, but what is it that allows the individual to travel so fast, past terminal velocity, at the higher altitudes? Is it the lack of gravity? Then, when they get closer to earth, they get back down to the 124mph mark, or whatever it is? I always thought out in space, with less gravity, you "floated" more than gained speed. i know this may sound ignorant, but, I have absolutely no education in this field.
Spiderman should do this
Neil Armstrong jumped on the moon, Is that the new record?
you really forgot Abbas ibn Firnas 887AD
That guy jumped from higher than space...?
The forgetful lily neurochemically present because multimedia willy brush like a enthusiastic music. high-pitched, undesirable branch
Convert to metric system it's way better.
@sl9hter if that bothers you divide the imperial results by 3 so you can find the metric results for meters
@Staringcorgi6 yeah but the metric system is way superior that the imperial system.
But most of his viewers are American and emp doesn't want to clutter the video
Great video and all, but I'd really appreciate if you had shown hight in metric system too, most people don't speak feet or burgers per baseball stadium.
Parkourers: Two story fall causing injury? Pshh
looks like it’s time for me to beat that record😈
Is this summoning salt in real life
This is luke summoning salt for skydiving. Fucking amazing video.
That was great.
He could have mlg water bucket
u team up with red bull to brake 50+ year record to only be beaten by a amateur google tec 2 years later
Dude, well done on this video, I'm impressed.
