Re: Anyone think Felix Baumgartner might have been a little hypoxic there at the jump
I think the enormity of what he was about to do, coupled with the concern over the faceplate had his attention. Stress shuts your brain down as effectively as hypoxia. I am fairly sure they had PPO2 sensors wired on him, and just because they didn't display all the data on screen doesn't mean they didn't have it available.
I heard he is now going to attempt something that requires even more daring (IMHO)...... he wants to fly rescue helicopters.
