Thanks.

Is this recorded or live? I have no idea?

[Jorg]

[glennv]

8:34 no record ;-(

 

[Waterysmile]

Oooh. 8:34. I wonder what happened.

Thanks Jorg

 

[glennv]

Looked like he could have done more, but the local medic was a bit afraid and ordered him to get out.
Will put it on line later (takes about an hour to convert and upload)

Update : Here you can watch the recording online

8:34 meh, but holding breath while listening to people talking german is still an amazing feat : )

 

[Jorg]

So that is it.... nothing more to tell.
Interview of 15 seconds where he tells that he is okay after 10 seconds after coming up... program over..

 

[sanso]

Tom came up at 8:34 - All OK, but no cigar.
5 seconds interview, show over..

 

[rbsub]

So, no new record. But anyway, having millions of spectators and then 8.34! Respect!

(I wish to do the 1/2 time in such a relaxed manner:t).
