On October 14th, 2012, Felix Baumgartner broke the world record for highest skydiving altitude, jumping from space, with a free fall that enabled him to surpass the speed of sound. Just two days later, this hilarious Lego re-enactment highlighting the key moments of the jump was released. The video is to promote the Model Maker Fair which will take place in Vienna on October 25th-28th. It’s one small step for Lego man, one giant leap for mankind’s entertainment.
