MI:70K

It sounds like a sequel to the tom cruise's "Missiom Impossible" movies..but its something else....its "Mission Impossible:70,000 feet"
Industrialist and aviator Vijaypat Singhania on Saturday became the first man to fly at 69,852(almost 70,000) feet above sea level in a hot air balloon, thereby breaking the world record of 64,997 feet, set by Per Lindstrand, in June 1988, in Texas.




Its a brave effort..but an effort worth at least a salute..!!
we are proud of you Vijay.

surely a thing worth being proud of.......
Was listening to his interview the other day on Radio Mirchi just before setting out for this record... That time he had just broken the National record for high flying....... It seemed as if you set a target, put the necessary effort....and the world is at your feet.........
.......yet miles to go.............
