This picture provided by www.redbullcontentpool.com shows, Pilot Felix Baumgartner of Austria sitting in his trailer during the final manned flight for Red Bull Stratos in Roswell, New Mexico, USA on October 14, 2012. Baumgartner lifted off from the New Mexico desert on Sunday, in his second attempt to make a record-breaking jump from the edge of space.Baumgartner was being transported up to 23 miles (37 kilometers) above the Earth by an enormous balloon, before launching himself into the void, aiming to become the first human to break the sound barrier in freefall.The capsule rose into the clear blue sky, with organizers holding their breath for the first few thousand feet of ascent, as Baumgartner would not have had enough time to escape had there been a problem. ++RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - MANDATORY CREDIT "AFP PHOTO / www.redbullcontentpool.com / Jorg MITTER" - NO MARKETING NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS - DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS = ONE-TIME PUBLICATION = IMAGE MUST NOT BE ALTERED OR MODIFIED++
