On Friday night, former and present curators of the citizen-powered @Sweden Twitter account met up and drank all the Absolut Vodka they could. Sonja (remember her?) and last week’s @Sweden voice, Christian, recorded an awesomely drunk—and very bizarre—video together.

Austrian daredevil “Fearless” Felix Baumgartner successfully jumped from space on Sunday. He rose to the edge of Earth’s atmosphere and jumped from a height of more than 128,000 feet—or 24 miles—and became the first person to break the sound barrier without mechanical assistance or shelter. The epic event was broadcast live on YouTube and Discovery channel, but if the three-hour event was too long for you, here’s a GIF of him jumping in just seconds.
