Description
Stan Barrett (born 1943). US stuntman and former Air Force medical technician Stan Barrett standing next to the Budweiser Rocket rocket-powered vehicle, in which he attempted to break the Land Speed Record in 1979. His calculated speed of 739.666 mph would have made him the first man to break the sound barrier in a land vehicle. However, the attempt was controversial and the speed never officially recorded. Photographed at Rogers Dry Lake, Edwards Air Force Base, USA, in 1980.
