Man travels at 614mph without any vehicle
For those of you that haven't heard about this before, have a read of this thread.

The chap is called Joseph Kittinger who did it freefalling from a balloon almost in space, and I mention him in my reply.
His collegue John Stapp was equally brave, travelling at 632mph on a sled.
These events were in the 1950's.
'Brave' doesn't encompass what they did.
