I hope we're right.
Felix has one key piece
of safety equipment
that he has to learn to trust -
his pressurised space suit.
Joe takes him to be fitted
at the same company that made
It's a piece of art.
It's all hand done.
She just assembled these two pieces,
you can not see where
she just sewed that together.
It's impossible.
Where? No, I don't think so!
THEY LAUGH:
Cos I can't find it either.
It will take a team of people
more than a year
to build the customised suit.
A single flaw could be deadly.
You have to be very exact
about everything.
If you did do something wrong,
it could be someone's life,
you know, so...
But they check us much too much.
protection, not for free-falling.
This is a whole new world for Felix.
Ready to do this?
Screw it in, clockwise. Screw it in.
Run it up to 3 PSI.
FELIX SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY
The suit is inflated with air,
creating a protective cocoon
around the body.
Can I jump?
This pressurised air
keeps you alive at altitude
Three, two, one.
Get full flex. All the way back.
Good.
Do that again.
'It's hard to describe how it feels.
'Your movements are totally limited.'
Is that hard? Is that OK?
'You can't breathe
that easy any more.
'It's difficult, you know?'
You don't feel a damn thing
in that suit.
When I go for a skydive,
I want the air
floating around my body.
I want to feel it,
I want to feel the speed,
I want to feel the temperature.
Work with the air, use it,
so you can move your body
while falling down.
'So first time wearing
the pressure suit,
'pumped up like this,'
it was like,
"Where's my freedom? It's gone!"
Felix will have to learn how to
freefall in a rigid pressure suit.
The first person
ever to do that was Joe.
Hey, Joe. Remember this?
Yeah. Looks familiar.
It's a picture of Joe
going out of the gondola.
To me it was a lot simpler,
a lot easier.
I'd worn pressure suits a long time.
I'd flown aeroplanes
in pressure suits
so I was used to flying
with a pressure suit.
I'd got used to how uncomfortable
it is.
Yeah, and I'm not a fighter pilot.
I didn't spend much time
in a pressure suit
so that's the big thing.
You are an attitude.
Back in '55, '56, '57,
space was something that no-one
When Joe began his mission,
NASA was just being formed
and space travel
was still a thing of the future.
His jump was part of a research
programme called Project Excelsior.
I wasn't interested in skydiving,
I wasn't interested
in setting records.
