Yes, it looks well-planned; I hope he's able to carry it off and not have it go sour.

He's jumping from 120, 000 feet. An Air Force guy jumped from 102, 000 in 1960. It would be cool to watch, but nothing groundbreaking.

Balloon = 1/10th thickness of a Ziploc bag, yet weighs 3,000 lbs. and would take up to an acre if laid out flat.
