So the guy straps himself to balloon, rides straight up for 2 hours, 25 miles high.
So 12.5 mph, a little faster than the average bicycle pace. Straight up.
Works with other engineers in secret for 3 years to knock out a badass space survival suit.
And then, just for us kids, "cut himself loose from the balloon with the aid of a small explosive device . . ." and achieves 800mph+, setting off a "small sonic boom".
