It's raining men

Well im gonna laugh because in all honesty I have a warped sense of humour and don't really care about 1 more person dying in a world of billions.

So that being said...

Has anyone ever actually survived such a high altitude, long duration stunt? I would imagine that without a proper regulated oxygen supply and a thermal suit you are looking at a traumatic suicide mission myself. You'd also need some knowledge of how the undercarriage folds inwards as the hydraulics are going to be pretty unforgiving against a human body. From all angles it sounds like a fool's errand by an ignorant man. Some here or on the Speaker's Corner might suggest he was likely a Brexit supporter...

It's sad for sure, although perhaps he just wanted to do it "for the lols" and wasn't desperate at all. We don't know at this stage.

However somebody thinking they can do the equivalent of surviving at the peak of Everest for 6hrs, followed by a parachute-less descent to earth from 40,000ft is undoubtably a few sandwiches short of a picnic.
 
Them being desperate enough to try this is one reason why they could have ended up there.

Another would be not knowing what they are getting themselves into, or the extent of danger involved and taking an opportunity that people in the know wouldn't even consider.
