The  Austrian adventurer Felix Baugmartner participated in the International Advertising Mena Cristal Conference in Kfardebian, where he spoke about his experience and the preparations which lasted five years for the historical jump.

Felix set the world record for skydiving an estimated 39 kilometers, reaching an estimated speed of 1300 km/h on the 14th of October 2012.

During his participation in the conference, Felix said that by setting this record, he achieved a dream which he has been dreaming of since he was 16 years old.

In this context, Felix told LBCI that the "biggest learning was the unlimited power of will", adding that "if you focus on something, if you have a goal and you do not let loose, you can achieve anything".

On the other hand, LBCI was able to make an exclusive interview during which he explained, in details, his experience in space. The interview is expected to be aired later.
