Track 25
Austrian Felix Baumgartner is the world's best-known BASE*
jumper and an extreme sports legend. He holds the world
records for high and low parachute jumps from buildings,
bridges, and other structures. In 1999, he jumped off the
Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The towers are
452 meters (1,483 feet) high. In the same year, he also jumped
from the Corcovado statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The statue
is only 30 meters (98 feet) high! That's low!
There's more! In 2003, Baumgartner crossed the
English Channel between England and France in
freefall from an altitude of 10,000 meters 83,000
feet). For most ofthe journey, he flew at 220
kilometers (137 miles) an hour-with a carbon
fin, an oxygen tank, and a parachute on his back!
He made the 35-kilometer (22-mile) journey from
Dover, England to Calais, France in just 14 minutes!
"How did I prepare for the flight?" said Felix.
"I tied myself to the top of a speeding Porsche!"

Track34
Australia is home to some of the most dangerous creatures
on earth. lhe Australian taipan, for example, is the most
poisonous snake in the world. Its venom is strong enough to
killl00 adults with just one bite.
Certain sea creatures are as deadly as those on land. Great
white sharks are famous all over the world. Did Vou know they
have around 3,000 teeth? But sharks actually kill very few
people. In fact, Australian wild dogs kill more people each year
than great whites have killed in 100 years!
lhe most violent sea creatures are saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are 7 meters (23 feet)
long, extremely strong, and very ugly. Although human meat is not their favorite, they attack
anything- including sharks. lhey sleep and swim on the ocean f1oor, 50 they are difficult to
see until it's too late! lhey don't swallow people, but they can break them in half. Despite
this, saltwater crocodiles are a protected species in
Australia. If Vou kill one, Vou will be in trouble. On the
other hand, they can kill Vou without getting into any
trouble!
lhe most deadly Australian creature of all is the box
jellyfish. Its poisonous tentacles can be 3 meters
(10 feet) longo lheir fatal sting feels like a powerful
electric shock. Your heart stops beating after only
three minutes. Box jellyfish have killed more people
in Australia than snakes, sharks, and saltwater
crocodiles combined.
Enjoy Australia, but remember to be careful!
