Rocket man

Sequin | 12:04 UK time, Monday, 26 May 2008

Have you heard about Michel Fournier, the 64 year old parachutist who has been preparing to leap from a balloon on the outer reaches of the stratosphere and plunge 40 kilometres (25 miles) to earth on Canada's western plains. He says it's his life's dream to
make the record jump, which will begin at a point four times higher than the cruising altitude of a commercial jet.

Possibly one of the more extreme life ambitions I've heard........ unless you can better it???
