They call me Fearless Felix.

I can't bear the thought of my mother having to push me around in a wheelchair. I'd rather die quickly.

Well, to me, my past accomplishments weren't crazy. They required a lot of skill and careful planning.

Let me tell you - when I was standing there on top of the world, you become so humble. You don't think about breaking records anymore, you don't think about gaining scientific data - the only thing that you want is to come back alive.

Normally, when I skydive, even in winter, I wear very thin gloves. I want to be flexible, with fast reactions.

I've done a lot of things in a business where you're lucky to stay alive, so when the time comes, I'll be happy to pass my knowledge along and help someone else.
