I think he said his goal was to ascend to well over 20,000' to a height where he disappears from sight.
meh, lots of his other stunts are things that very few people could do, or have even ever done. Getting a hot air balloons pilot license and doing 500 jumps isn't impressive enough to care about imo. Tens (hundreds?) of thousands of people have done that. The big barrier to that feat is time and money, not force of will.
