Google Considered Sending Google Glass In Space With Felix Baumgartner

Finally the history is made. Skydiver Felix Baumgartner has successfully made the century’s biggest stunt – Free Fall from 128,000 feet above Earth on October 14. Where everyone is happy, on the other side, search engine giant Google might have been regretting now. Why? Because the company wanted to send a pair of Google Glass with Felix Baumgartner to the edge of the space for his jump. At least, a conversation on Twitter between SEO expert Danny Sullivan and a YouTube employee says so.


Conversation On Twitter

Google is very much optimistic with its Google Glass. Though Google hasn’t launched the product yet, obviously it has shown some prototypes. If Felix Baumgartner had been wearing a pair of Google Glass during his jump from the edge of the space, it would have been amazing for the viewers to be able to see the jump from Felix’s perspective. And, it would have been a huge marketing stunt from Google’s end. But, all the possibilities are gone now.
