You put unbelievable faith into your equipment there man, I mean Ive run off mountains with expired parachutes attached to homemade harnesses for fun with complete confidence but pushing a gyro like this is seriously next level - most amazing of all is the lifting ability of this gyro to carry such big cahoonas
Yes I think its a pretty powerful two stroke around 100hp. Carry some pretty big balls with a light high hp engine. I think he's wearing shorts to keep em cool, they must be that active they'd ignite or explode if kept in trousers. Brave man.
There's just something about going inverted in an open cockpit with a spinning blade just a foot away from your skull that makes the anus pucker. Never seen gryocopter acrobatics, cool shit dude.
I'm surprised he can get off the ground with balls that big. That's the most dangerous thing I've ever seen and he's doing it effortlessly . My hat is off for him!
I've seen countless flight videos, and the spectacular means humans have concocted to move through the air-from seeing suits to rockets. This video I randomly came across is the most epic video I have ever seen. I am blown away. You are one with your machine.
TRUE about being 110% in tune with his machine! First time I saw his "show" - I covered my eyes, many times believing "This would not end well"!! - after several conversations with him & looking over his highly modified gyro ...and watching many of his displays since ..I have utmost respect! Although I fear others with far less skills may try to emulate such advanced maneuvers WITH-OUT the proper aerobatic FEEL & knowledge!
Nice video. I hope Barry will be at Bensen Days 2023. I've done some gyro flying with my friend Greg Spicola over the years but just recently decided to get my gyro license. I'm the very lucky winner of the recent PRA raffle of the single seat Dominator. I'm also very lucky that I live in Tampa Florida and have a wealth of knowledgeable and experienced gyro guys at my fingertips. Can't wait for Bensen Days 2023.
Very impressive camera-view! Still gives me the willy's watching that ...but after in-depth conversation with the pilot at B-Days ...I'm not as scared for him as I was the first time I saw that routine!
That was an interesting view of Barry doing his stuff. As always a great routine to watch, seemingly effortless and way beyond what most gyro pilots will...or should attempt. Barry is certainly in a class of his own when it comes to this sort of a display. A few come close, Greg Spicola is one Roy Davis another, then that gent who was doing Lawn Dart impressions with the new ELA at Bensen Days...which I believe did catch Barry's attention when he went along for a ride.🙂. Great flying Barry. Unique view Gerald.
Greg is a good friend of mine. After seeing Barry at Bensen Days this year I asked Greg if he could do all of those stunts. He said yes but, why. Had me laughing for a few minutes.
@@GyroGerald Yes, there are a lot of gyrocopters in Russia, but mostly they are heavy. Because we use car engines more often. In Russia, a gyroplane is more often used for work and not for entertainment. Especially in winter, when all water bodies freeze and you can easily land or take off from any lake or river. You can catch one fish weighing 15-20 kg. And sometimes more. And also use the delivery and rest. But in our country, few people post their videos on RUclips because they fly almost illegally. In our country, no one controls and does not look after small aircraft, the main thing is not to fly in, not to fly over closed objects. Of all the American channels, yours is the most spectacular, but the only thing I would like is more comments From you.
@@user-ro5ev9zr5o what types of work are gyros used for in Russia? That's very interesting. Here in Australia they are sometimes used for mustering animals on large properties.
@@omeobandit9928 1. First of all used for elite fishing in winter. When lakes and rivers freeze in the distant wilderness. Ice is a comfortable flat airfield. They fly very far from settlements and catch very large fish. 2. Used to deliver fuel, medicine, products to hard-to-reach places. Gold Miners Hunters Foresters and many others. A few years ago, from the estate, a crocodile ran away from us, 2 gyroplane was looking for him. 3. And the third point is to fly from one place to another or just ride, have fun, relax. I also heard that smugglers use it, but I don’t know anything about it. There may be inaccuracies in my answer, but I'm sorry, I'm writing through a translator.
@@user-ro5ev9zr5o That is really cool. Where can I find more photos and contact russian gyrocopter pilots? I'm always interested in the commercial use of gyros.
!!!!Jooooder ¡¡¡¡¡ No sabía que los autogiros fueran tan maniobrables... Menudo control del piloto..., y menudo cálculo de distancias...a veces he creído que las aspas iban a dar en el suelo. Impresionante. Me ha encantado.
Very confusing thumbnail photo. Glad he figured out how to land that thing. Seemed like he was having a hard time keeping it straight and level in the air!😝 Thanks for posting.
Ps можно просматривать до бесконечности..блин..как же это круто..и приятно..пробовал на"дельте"- ( ultra lait baik)-- но это было очень давно..лишь остались неизгладимые впечатлентя в моей памяти о безбашенных годах молодости..)))
Some people are not gyro people so it does look intimidating or more dangerous than it really is. Etc. Also, this pilot can fly airplanes in a similar way.
I used to go to Jim's house before the (Sportcopter) shop was built at the airport. This was back in the late 80s. I can remember seeing his first 2-place tandem airframe hanging from the ceiling of his overly crowded garage. 🙂 Your flying skills look pretty damn good to my 70 year old eyes. :-) I also got to watch Molt Taylor fly his "Aerocar" back in the day. 🤪
I've built and flew gyrocopters back in the 1970s and early 1980s. This guy is really tempting fate. That's without a parachute too because it would do him no good. It would just get caught up in the rotor if still intact.
Hello Gerald, I am also a swiss gyroplane pilot for a few years, and watching your video is a wonderful piloting lesson, very precise and wonderfully informative, thank you! Can I ask you what is the model of this machine and what is its power? thanks again and soft landings
Enjoy your videos very much, Gerald. Any chance you might be able to interview pilot to explain how he does these maneuvers? I always thought it was too dangerous to loop/roll gyros as rotors may lose lift/airflow? Thanks again :-)
Shows what these things can do with a titanium rotor hub and the Jesus nut part !!! Apparently as long as you keep the rotors making some kinda wing there actually far more capable than any other aircraft ever invented .!!!! The pilot when becoming part of the thing can judge the perfect speed of the rotor and drop like a rock or climb incrediblely fast and because its kinda a flying Moto X motor cycle with upgraded push propeller and powerful engine ... I'm speechless !!!! Bloody speechless !!!! 😮 😁
I like the apparent inherent tendency of Gyrocopter pilots to decorate their machines with the apocalypse in mind - have you considered wearing homemade armor and a spiky helmet?
Anything that can be flown this way, hundreds of hours to 'get it right' in practice, and the operator is still alive to perform it seemingly effortlessly... Convinces me that these machines are not 'flimsy death traps'. Knowing the physics and being 'connected' with the machine may have something to do with it.. LOL. Awesome video Gerald.
Impressive, and an appealing concept. But I am a fixed wing guy. I can't help it, my nervous system immediately focuses on the flimsy construction keeping the rotor in place, carrying everything else. Has the concept ever been tested against a bird strike? Would a parachute be of any help above 50 meters (150 feet)?
Спорт
WOW! As a Gyro Plane student currently - I am amazed at that performance! BALLS OUT!!! Thank You!!
who is teaching you?
Don't get the impression that you can or should do anything similar... odds are you won't survive....
I don’t get how this gyro can stay in the air with this guys heavy big balls
Lol

Don't believe it. Must be CGI. Where is the camera?
So nice to watch! Most people do not realize what a gyro can do!
gyrocopter you mean is not
Yes until his rotor blades hit the ground.

Absolutely fantastic, Just brilliant. Thank you so much for sharing.
Very talented! The 360 cam really takes away from how great this routine actually is.
Need 2 POV's in same video ...this was a new one to me & as a gyro pilot ...a GREAT insight into the symphony he plays with throttle, stick& rudder!!!
I am a pilot, over 5000 skydives over 600 base jumps ( one of the originals that started the sport) and this is insane !!!😆
Gratuluję opanowania sprzętu i techniki lotu. Brawo.
I didn’t know you could that in a gyro plane, amazing
Heck, the pilot didn't know it either!!! Lol.........
OMG! Amazing performance. You really challenge the taboo of gyrocopter flying.
There are old pilots, there are bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots. Be careful out there.
My God best flight I've ever seen on a gyrocopter. Congratulations congratulations, congratulations.
Over the top!! We're sure going to miss him some day.
Very impressive camera-view! Still gives me the willy's watching that ...but after in-depth conversation with the pilot at B-Days ...I'm not as scared for him as I was the first time I saw that routine!
Fabulous! The best aviation video I've seen bar none! Love the shorts and track shoes too. Felix Baumgartner eat your heart out!
Вот это пилотаж!! Мастерство высочайшего уровня. Автор видео - профессионал, безо всяких сомнений :)
Есть такое.
Я раньше думал что если на нём резко ручку от себя дать, то лопасти сломаются. Удивлён прочности конструкции

Let's not compare this "performance" to Bob Hoover..
@@keirnbug8762 No, don't bring in Bob Hoover into this but the dynamics are the same.
You mad man first time I have ever seen copter flying like this bravo 👏
Dude is very comfortable with his gyro. Maybe too comfortable 😂. Awesome flying.
👍 great aerobatics. How the camera was fixed?
Fantastic...!
It is fantastic!!! Haven't seen anything like it!

Some MAD SKILLS
Mind... blown!
That's pretty awesome..... he's killing the game!
And hopefully not him.
i had no ideia a gyro could send that hard👏👏👏
it sure would be cool to see this from the ground as well. thanks for sharing awesome video.
The ground video is on here somewhere. Triple loop was in the title I believe.
What a wonderful flight ✈️ I am want it. So amazing I can't think it. So beautiful.
This is the most gob smacking best Video I have ever seen , what a talented pilot that man is. One so bold I just hope he is allowed to get old.🇳🇿😎
Very confusing thumbnail photo. Glad he figured out how to land that thing. Seemed like he was having a hard time keeping it straight and level in the air!😝 Thanks for posting.
Is that how you land a gyro with a cross wind?
i just witnessed a legendary flight. thanx for sharing
Please share with aviation enthusiasts

Está aí um dos caras que faz eu apaixonar ainda mais por aviação.
Morreu ontem.
Vc sim é Top Gun! 👏
The real skill comes from whoever or whatever is flying that camera man that is some excellent footage!!!
This is skill! Well done!
This is a skilled pilot and this shows what a gyro is capable of.
that p-40 face... SO COOL!
very nice green screen background there . . .must be a reitred weatherman
Will be reading the accident report someday
Beautiful maneuvers beautiful gyrocopter I love it 🎉 enjoy forget the comments
Some people are not gyro people so it does look intimidating or more dangerous than it really is. Etc.
Also, this pilot can fly airplanes in a similar way.
This is just insane
Nice! I think I'd liked to have seen video from the ground side by side to see exactly what you were doing. Very cool.
scary cool!
Incrible, Crazy 👏🏽🙌👍🏽🤝🏽
Impressive how sharp of a turn that makes
Whit this camera looks funny :D Otherways Grate skills :)
This looks fun...hold my beer 😃
Damn! You just made Jim Vaneks (of Sportcopter) flights look tame.
Lol, Jim Vanek is still the man though but nice of you to say.
I used to go to Jim's house before the (Sportcopter) shop was built at the airport. This was back in the late 80s.
I can remember seeing his first 2-place tandem airframe hanging from the ceiling of his overly crowded garage. 🙂

Yeah I saw my father lose his life in a gyro doing less violent maneuvers.

Dominator with beefed up rotax
See ya Barry at the Arden NC get together this may 18 -20th. You are ONE with the machine , you must ride a motorcycle !
This dude is insane 👏

as far as i was told the rotor won't lose rpm if you keep a positive g loading, so just keep up the speed and make sharp enough turns
Awesome!
I want to learn to fly gyros. Where should i start? Also where can i buy a bensen kit?
With which camera system you have filmed ? Thanks
Amazing . I don't know how you're accomplishing some of us without unloading the blades or bunting over.
Truely astonishing.
🤭🤭We need ground camera view please. What a show
amazing have a nice landing
What is the maximum flight speed and how long does it take to fly with a full tank? Thank you 🇩🇿🇩🇿
I can just hear all the other gyro jocks out there saying, "hold my beer..."
Даже акула на рисунке испугалась!!!🤣
Wow, thats some hot aviating!
You are crazy, bat very big pilot!🤩
I like the apparent inherent tendency of Gyrocopter pilots to decorate their machines with the apocalypse in mind - have you considered wearing homemade armor and a spiky helmet?

Is there a video taken from the ground
m.ruclips.net/video/kSRspU1bn4M/видео.html
Okay... all I can say is that I'm glad it isn't a two seater and I wasn't in it. Pretty damn impressive.
Talk about knowing your machine!
INCREIBLE, gyro and drone? outstanding pilots... wondering how was it filmed!!!
My question also.
I never tought that such things are possible with gyro !
Amazing skill,there is always a BUT,i wreck my bike a year age,i still have not recovered 100 % what MAKE an model is that bird ?
WOW........!!!!!!!
Any grass stains on thise rotor tips?
Wow That was some flying. How far from ground could those blades be in turns ? You are awesome and totally crazy. :-D

Amazing pilotage 😃
wicked talk about skill
Parabéns .👏👏👏👏
Perfec🧨
Супер пилот и автожир отличный.
I'm here trying to figure how and where the camera was mounted.
360 camera off the nose. You can see the pole in the shadow
How does he not lose rotor speed when he's tilted back close to the runway? Is he using the pre-rotator?
I don't understand how the camera is mounted. I can't see any connection to the airframe... and it keeps changing position
Check out 360 cams. They stitch together two extreme fish eye lenses and the pole the camera is on is in the blind spot
Wow... most impressive... be careful bud... flying like that will eventually bite... but you know that already.
Impressive, and an appealing concept. But I am a fixed wing guy. I can't help it, my nervous system immediately focuses on the flimsy construction keeping the rotor in place, carrying everything else. Has the concept ever been tested against a bird strike?

This guy will be in the news one day
Nunca imaginei que o Gyrocopter tivesse essa maneabilidade! Incrível!
ei por favor compartilhe meu vídeo no seu país isso vai me ajudar a fazer mais vídeos ok
@@GyroGerald Ok
Not sure if that is dumb or skillful? Maybe a little of both 😄
I can't hardly wait to see a rotor strike, he will F'up before to long...ouch..🙃
What's the rotor RPM at full speed?
Ballz of steel for sure 😳
Crazy cool
Amazing🎉🎉🎉
Trop trop trop fort.
