To the first man to jump from the edge of the space, who broke the sound barrier, who successfully managed to open a parachute and safely return to Earth… to the fearless Felix Baumgartner, who was not afraid to undertake the most daring of risks in order to achieve their dreams of doing what no one had done before… to the man who caught the attention of the entire world and who inspired people from all around the world to take a leap into the unknown… to the Austrian daredevil, skydiver, athlete, astronaut, hero who has now sadly broken the barrier between life and the world to come, you will always be an inspiration and example to many of what is possible and what can be achieved if we continue to chase the outer limits of our potential, reach beyond our grasp, and never stop being fearless.
