Rocket man aims to get record back
Amateur rocket engineer Ben Jarvis from Norfolk wants to break the European altitude record - currently 70,000ft - about 13 miles (21km).
The rocket he's building will be able to reach 2,000 mph (3,200 km/h) in one second.
In 2000 he broke the European altitude record, achieving a record height of 30,000ft (9,144m), but a team from the Netherlands recently broke that record and now he wants it back.
