The Amazon boss successfully landed on Earth after a short trip to space today, along with three other passengers.

Today, Jeff Bezos' private space company Blue Origin launched its first-ever human flight.

The Amazon ex-CEO was on board the spaceflight, along with his brother Mark, 82-year-old aviation pioneer Wally Funk, and 18-year-old student, Oliver Daemen - Blue Origin's first paying customer.

They were propelled into space atop the New Shepard rocket, before being suspended for around four minutes, then returning to the Earth's atmosphere.
