They have to check his suit's data to verify. By on-the-ground estimate, it looked like he did, but it's one of those things that they can't confirm immediately. Still, he made the highest manned balloon flight and the highest parachute jump.

I hope they put the capsule in the Smithsonian or some other air & space museum. I'd love to go & see it.

Not the same guy but

couldn't they have just done a low def stream with a high res recording?

We could see a very low def version live which would have been better than the infrared spec we got to see
and 2, we could have seen it from his perspective in HD after he landed and someone uploaded the recorded video.
