It took him four days to climb from the base camp to the jumping location. At precisely 2:30 p.m. local time he leaped despite adverse weather conditions with temperatures -18 Celsius. <\/p>\n<p>Because the cliff at the top was not very high, the initial moments of the leap in the rarified high altitude air were the most critical phase. Rozov needed more time than usual in the thin air to transition from freefall to flying. After that he flew for nearly a full minute at speeds of about 200 km\/h (125 mph) along the north face before he landed safely on the Rongbuk glacier &#8211; at an altitude of 5,950 meters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8222;Only when I got back home did I see how hard it was for me both physically and psychologically,&#8220; said Rozov after getting home to Moscow. &#8222;When you look at the videos you realize that it took a lot longer than usual to get from falling to flying.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/redbull.com<br \/>\n_____________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Experience the world of Red Bull like you have never seen it before.
