This French sky diver named Michel Fournier,almost made a record breaking parachute jump from the earths stratosphere on Tuesday but the balloon that was supposed to carry him slipped away from his crew. The ex-paratrooper had hoped to set some new records for the highest jump, fastest free fall, longest free fall and the highest altitude reached by a man in a balloon.Fournier planned his big jump at 25 miles above the earth surface and then land safely.
