After a free-fall lasting about two minutes, Aikins at the last second flipped onto his back and hit the net, which Aclin said was suspended 200 feet (61 meters) above ground with a secondary net below it.

Aikins previously said the net system would subject him to a G-force of no more than five grams and break his fall for about one and a half seconds.
