I remember watching an interview of him talking about having to rotate to make sure he was falling. That'd be a scaring feeling at first.
I really hate that Kittinger never really got that much recognition. I believe him to be the first man in space. Almost everything about that altitude screams space except there is gravity to pull him down. If he took off his suit at that height his blood would boil instantly. That's space to me.
