Announcement from airplane pilot after LOUD bang and bright flash
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2024
- This was the very good news from our pilot after a VERY loud bang and a bright flash of light occurred shortly after take off from the airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
I thought we had surely suffered some major mechanical failure and would have to turn around for an immediate emergency landing. Immediately after the flash and bang, I pointed my video camera out the window to capture whatever happened next.
There was about 60 seconds for us all to worry about the worst case scenario before our pilot came on the public address system and made this announcement about what had happened.
"Static discharge from clouds" also known as lightning?
Actually, no. If you walk across the carpet with socks on and get a shock when you touch something, were you struck by lightning? No. This is what happened to the plane. It created a static charge as it climbed through cirrus clouds. That static charge was discharged to the air. That's not lightning. Lightning is formed within clouds and would happen whether or not a plane came by. This particular static discharge happened only because the plane came by and created it. Which is why the pilot said what he said, rather than simply saying "folks, we just got hit by lightning, but we're fine".

Lightning is essentially a giant static electricity shock
@@brucesmith1544 👆truth. Everytime I land my plane on a carpet runway, it always builds up static lightning🤡
"This is your pilot speaking. Did you guys see and hear that shit? Scared the crap outta me."
Lol "welp, don't know what that was but our gauges look okay so we're gonna press on here folks!"

If only. 🤣
Nah, phone's data broadband doesn't affect the airplane, only the Wi-Fi connection does interfere the radar system
He should’ve said “who took their phone off airplane mode?”
Hahahahaha
God DAMMIT STEVE! Once again your stupidity has killed us all.
Camera still works on airplane mode.
Nice that the captain is communicating to the passengers. Most captains only say something like "brace for impact."
funny!
„This is your Pilot. Im working from home today and unfortunately I have some connection issues.“
That's funny! I enjoy reading these comments, but lots of them are based around the same humorous ideas. Yours is the first I saw that took it in that direction!
I almost choked on my drink.

This comment wins
Your comment made me laugh out loud (and there's no one else in this room). Thanks, Martin.
"This is your pilot, does anyone have an idea what that flash and loud bang was?"
That's all you need to hear- very reassuring.
Someone set a flash bang off on the plane LMAO
"This is your captain speaking ... yeah, we're fucked."
"By the way does anybody know how to fly a plane?"
Lmao
"This is your captain speaking, If you are hearing this it means I have already ejected. Good luck."
🤣🤣🤣 Too funny..

Let's not forget that obviously, the person who recorded this, was expecting to record a disaster..
When I heard the loud BANG and saw the bright flash of light from out the window, I figured that one of two things was about to happen: Either we were about to crash, or we were about to return to the airport that we had just taken off from. In either case, I wanted to get it on video.
If I died in the crash, the investigators might find the GoPro and retrieve the video off the memory card. If I survived the crash, I would have a heck of a video for RUclips and CNN. If we just returned to the airport, it would still probably make for an interesting video on RUclips.
From the extreme energy of the flash/bang, it seemed to me that there had been an explosion of some type. I figured one of the engines had exploded. All this went through my head in a few seconds after the flash/bang. Never did I think that we would simply continue on to our destination, which is exactly what we did. And because I did not capture the flash/bang on camera, and the plane was not damaged in any way, never did I think this video would go viral on RUclips. But I've had over twenty videos go viral on RUclips and quite a few of them I never would have expected to go viral... so I've learned that I am not a good judge of what has the potential to go viral on RUclips!

@@JimZim no offense but it's really surprising that this has THAT many views. And it's from 2016. The youtube algorithms are weird I guess.
@@Toxodos Nobody is more surprised than I am, I can assure you of that. My expectation when I uploaded this was that it would get a couple of thousand views. But I've definitely learned, after more than 20 of my videos have gotten over a million views, that a lot of times it's the videos I would not expect to go viral.

As the Captain of this aircraft let me say by way of a recording on the cockpit voice recorder "Good luck and good night, I'm out of here... You're on your own.. I ejected safely and that's all that matters to me. "

I never thought I’d be getting a science lesson from a pilot today.
He's not giving a science lesson, he's just explaining why because obviously some passengers expressed concern.
@@CrisisGuildWOW Very true. I too would be frightened by a loud bang accompanied by a flash of light.. Especially on an airplane.
@@CrisisGuildWOW lmaoooo, ok Literal Larry.... What is the actual purpose of your reply? Because pointing out the obvious only works in certain instances, and this isn't one of them, lol.
You never want your pilot to come on and say "No you see guys there is a completely normal explanation for that"

It's his life as well, so
My first flight in a plane was in 1985 out of San Jose, Ca. in a PSA 727 during a rain event. The plane took a lightning strike while we were still over the city and climbing. I was peering out the window at the right wing at the time, dazzled by the rain drops in the still-illuminated landing lights going by sideways at hundreds of miles per hour.
Being a long time aviation fan I knew what had happened and said out loud "Looks like we got hit by lightning". The lady passenger in front of me turned around and looked over the back of her seat at me with eyes as wide as can be and said "Is that what that was?"
Several seconds later the pilot came on the speaker and notified us that we did indeed take a strike on the nose of the craft. Then he added "If you think that was exciting, then you should have seen our view out through the front windshield."
Holy crap, and LOL what the pilot said 🤣🤣🤣👌
Flexx but also Xd
Haha the pilot was great, but he could've made it better with an electrifying pun.
Ay I’m from San Jose aswell
The pilot refrained from mentioning that he and the Navigator had been blinded ... 🤣
“Attention passengers - this is the captain speaking. I have safely ejected and deployed my parachute. Best of luck to you.”

@@Sashik angry birds?
I love pilots like that who explain when something out of the ordinary happens - as well as warn you that the plane is going to be in some rough air. Makes us nervous fliers feel a whole lot better!
Yeah it is nice . I'm no nervous flier but get kind of angry when people act like "that wasn't a hard landing.. " just because youve never yourself piloted a Cessna 172 and done a rough pancake landing onto the runway, and you're just a lowly passenger who doesn't fly or isn't super excited about aviation, somehow your concerns aren't valid... Pilots like this one are the best.
I had a pilot tell our plane to fasten our seatbelts since we were would go through some rough air while crossing the Pacific. We eventually did feel it for about a minute and the plane even dipped a little bit. At least that time we felt safe thatnks to the wonderful catain that day!
That is a scary feeling sometimes when the plane drops even say 5 or 10 feet suddenly. Even when it's controlled and the pilot is using the speedbrakes (spoilers basically brought up to 50 percent of max tilt). :)
Joshua Cueva A big enough dip, and those seatbelts are what keep you from smashing against the ceiling.
Officer Gregory Stevens I tend to judge validity of concern based on amount of danger rather than amount of fear. However, a pilot should try to reassure passengers and put them at ease.
Don't worry the other engine will get us all the way to the crash site.

IN YOUR LUCID DREAM OBVIOUSLY
Ladies and Gentlemen. This is the captain. Sorry about the loud bang but we have a brand new flight attendant and I asked her to pull my finger.
?
😂😂
Haha 😂
That is true. Aircraft have static wicks on the end of the trail edge to help transfer that electricity back into the atmosphere to prevent it from interfering with navigation and communication radios. - Your Friendly Aviation Tech.
I feel a lot a better now. Thanks
You also have a static-line that must be used when fueling an airplane. Avgas is very flammable and one little spark of static...💥
@@SixMiracles-uj1zp Jets use jet fuel, it's basically kerosene with the paraffin removed, NOT avgas...
Indeed. We deal with "static on vhf radios in clouds" gripes all the time. In most cases its some part of the aircraft, usually the radome in my experience, causing that flow to be interrupted and causing arcing between the unbonded panel and another part of the airframe. I have never heard of a discharge like this one, and believe me the pilots would gripe it if it happened. 35 years avionics mechanic I. So I am a bit surprised that this captain describes it as normal. Lightning strike inspections however are quite common and yes it does sometimes burn holes in the airplane. Often in antennas.
No reason to alarm, because there's nothing you can do about it anyways....

My god, this is the kind of comment i like to see. :D
I never reply to comments on random videos but LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL im done 😂😂 so true
If it weren’t for Ryanair. All of the carriers you actually like would be charging X3 more right now. Whether you fly with them or not they disrupted the industry and have saved you money

“That loud bang you heard and that bright flash you saw was just one of our engines exploding. Nothing to worry about. It happens all the time. We should be in… i mean, on the ground in 30 seconds.”
If I were the pilot... "Folks, that loud bang you heard is most likely a loose wing or something. That's all for now."
You may have noticed the slight reduction in the number of wings...
Which would make it “a wing challenged aircraft”
"We just teleported into the lost world"

Same thing happened to me in 1983. TWA flight out of Germany. We were still climbing about 30 minutes into a 6.5 hour flight. The 747 is big and when it had a huge white flash and loud bang we all started prayers. The engines shut off and it dropped like a rock. The engines finally restarted and went full throttle. It scared the he'll out of all of us. The pilot came on the intercom about ten minutes later saying all was fine. No one slept till we landed in New York.

That is correct, lol.
Would be funny if it was "Thank you for flying Concorde. We just crossed the Mach speed barrier and we're cruising faster that the speed of sound."
Yea but if you were traveling at the speed of sound, you wouldn’t hear the boom
CJ Bermudes he is correct you wouldnt be able to hear only the people watching the plane fly from the outside can hear it
Come on he knows this people! He was kidding!
Blake Kersey He thinks that the boom happens at the moment you cross the sound barrier. That is already a fundamental mistake in understanding.
I believe it is not heard as a boom, but I never flew supersonic planes. What actually happens inside supersonic when it breaks the speed of sound?
Copilot: You think they bought it?
