This guy doesn’t look like he’s in the best of physical shape. He’s hyperventilating and extremely anxious. This guy is either going to have a panic attack, which could be extremely dangerous for both him and the pilot, or he’s going to black out from any number of reasons, or he is going to have a heart attack-literally. His response to the flight so far should alert the pilot to ease up on the speed and maneuvers he intends to perform with this rider.
@@jbarron4596 do you know anything about jets or piloting aircraft. The G force alone can make you pass out what do you think that thing is on his face it’s an oxygen supply
The voice is called “GCAS” Ground Collision Avoidance System. On C-130H’s and other Models you’d have to silence it during low level flight’s and every landing “Pull Up, Pull Up” then “Altitude Minimum, Altitude Warning, 300 Feet….” You get the just of it.
@@WAGNERONE1978 what you’re talking about is probably GPWS, ground proximity warning system, with the audible alerts. GCAS is a last resort system for when there is no other option to avoid ground collision and the flight computer will control the aircraft.
The pilot does this on a day to day basis so he's use to it, the guy in the back seat is on a VIP flight so he just got a crash course on how to handle G's

Regular Guy: Wow! You're a Jet Pilot? Must be awesome! Jet pilot: What are you kidding? I hate being a jet pilot. Flying is boring and all that speed is just like... stupid. And no one respects me neither! ..... said no jet pilot ever!
Imagine doing those maneuvers and more twisting and turning in the cockpit to keep your eyes on an enemy plane or a missile that is trying to kill you while you struggle to avoid it.
@@Galm02 there is missile approuch warning system it counters fox 2 if there wasn't then it would be very easy to destroy any thing with just manpads from ground xD
I nearly threw up once when I was riding a ride in the park. During the upside down flip, I looked at the people below me and said to myself "not now, not now." I breathed the same as this co-pilot :)). I restrained myself, but then I did it anyway when I went to the toilet. Then I realized that I had a weak vestibular apparatus. It seems that someone advised at such a moment to concentrate on the center of rotation or on some fixed point.
Amazing how these pilots just keep their calm in check while in the air. They are America's best of the best in aviation. Give them their props, America. They'll the ones that guard our Skies and Security of this great Nation..."God Bless America." Yeah Boyee!!!
I miss my days in the Navy as an aviation mechanic. The pilots were always cool and down to earth. Some of them didn't even want us saluting them. I still did out of respect
Reminds me of the time the Fleet pulled in before entering the Mediterranean. I was a young Naval Aircrewman stationed in Rota, Spain attached to a Recon Squadron and I happened to be walking through Maintenance Control after my shift had ended. There were a few F-14 pilots from the visiting Aircraft Carrier Wing talking it up with our P-3 & A-3 guys. As I was talking with a Senior Chief in M/C the Senior mentioned that one of the pilots was offering to take an enlisted guy up. All I can say is I appreciate the pilot explaining to me exactly what maneuvers he was going to pull while we were taxing on the flight line. As we took of and got airborne the pilot pulled the stick and we went straight up. Um did I almost faint? Yes!! Throw up? Maybe! It was the most memorable rides I’ve ever taken on an aircraft. From the ground my shipmates said as we climbed in altitude sparks shot out one of the engines like if a bird strike had happened. If so I never noticed as that F-14 and it’s thrust never missed a beat! Military Pilots, Fighter Pilots & if I may be more specific U.S. Navy Fighter Pilots are definitely a different breed and both mentally and physically tough. Especially the ones that land on aircraft carriers. ✌🏽🇺🇸🙏
It is remarkable how smooth these flights are. I am used to small craft being buffeted by updrafts and varying winds. These planes have so much power that it appears that they cut right through those forces.
People don't realize how hard this is as a passenger. The pilot knows exactly when and how much to brace himself before even performing the maneuver, meanwhile the passenger has to brace himself after he's already feeling the G's and has to struggle.
Someone said that before and it is true. You're moving in ways humans aren't built for, and training and timing make muscle memory for pilots, but leaves the backseater lagging.
@@koori3085 now imagine being the co pilot in a Cold War and Vietnam era 2 seater jet in combat? being able to prepare and stay conscious for that must take balls.

Must be nice to take a ride in the equipment you work on. Many AH64 mechanics never get a chance to enjoy a ride in the equipment they put so much love into.
My dad wrote in his journal how stoked he was to ride in a PBY he just worked on in the Solomon Islands ww2 he even got to fire the 50 cal He was a aviation machinist mate in the Navy
Why not setup a lottery system where periodically mechanics get chosen, at random, to take the first ride up in any aircraft they work on? This would use the Biblical principle of “Do not muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain” - I e. let the worker enjoy some fruits from his labor. Further, how much more motivated would you be¹ to ensure you did a repair *correctly* if you had a chance of going up in it the next time it flies? ____________ ¹ I don’t mean to imply any mechanics do anything but top notch work. I assume many (most?) take great pride in their work and would do no better with such motivation. But still… especially in peace time / when there’s not so much pressure that a mechanic can’t be spared for an occasional ride... why not? You can always adjust the lottery parameters to fit the bigger picture.
Closest I came to flying an AH64 was when I replaced a #2 NGB pressure switch. Pilot had to crank engine and get light on the wheels to verify correct operation. I was hanging out on top of the FAB.
You don’t know squat! Crew chiefs on choppers during the VN war flew almost every mission as a door gunner. Crew chiefs on the jets that fly in the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels fly in the back seat when traveling to their next location and many times they put on a little demonstration show for those stationed there upon arrival providing fuel remaining allows. Not all flying organizations are the same but there are some fighter outfits that offer incentive flights for ‘Crew Chief of the month or quarter’. There are other types of incentive flights offered by various other organizations as well.
I was lucky enough to get a ride in an F18, the pilot was awesome. Put me through 6gs for my first experience 🤣 and goddamn do you feel it, got a compliment on my breathing though, he said I was one of few that handled it well, was pretty proud of myself, thanks CPT Greene (RAAF)
I got my ride in the backseat of the F-15 and we did a max power, twin burner takeoff and did the same maneuver on take off, once wheels were 10’ of the ground, gear was retracted and the pilot popped that baby on its tail and straight to 40k feet we went and then we did the same backwards loop to level off at 40k. I was looking over my shoulder and watching the world get smaller and smaller by the millisecond, but I was stuck!! I could not turn my head back straight be cause of the G force!! I had the crook in my neck for close to two weeks, lol!! You have a million times more respect for these guys after seeing how these pilots can stand the physical strain while also focusing on and completing the mission!! These guys are damn machines!!!! I was stationed at Eglin AFB in Ft Walton Beach Fl when I flew. I was awarded an incentive flight for winning maintenance person of the year for the entire unit and I’ll never forget this. This is the video I need to show when I try to explain to folks what the acceleration and g’s is like. But this still makes it look easier than it really is!!
@@santinomireles3790 I had been in the USAF and had been chosen as Airman of the Month, Airman of the Quarter, and Maintenance Person of the Year and the Incentive Flight in the F-15 was the award for those. In other words, I worked my fricn ass off to get it but it was well worth it!!
Man, I can tell you from experience, that this is the ride of a lifetime!! I was a crew chief for the F-15 when I served and got a ride with my pilot. It was nothing short of amazing and I was even given the stick for a few minutes! The pilot will ensure you a great flight and a vertical takeoff if weather permits, but they also tried to make you tap out. All the G's and spinning can make you sick and have you pulling 100% oxygen..lol Loved it though!
First reaction to the "pull up and altitude" would be oh shit this is how I die then suddenly realizing I'll be fine as the pilot is probably one of the best there is.
As a former military avionics & flight systems tech, I can tell you that all those beeps and voice commands are signs of imminent danger. "Choo-choo" and "falcon turn" aren't your typical responses to those imminent danger alerts. Lol 😆
If I could live again this piloting these incredible machines would be my singular focus. It’s incredible that the limiting factor of capabilities is the human body. I was driving by from Montgomery towards Selma and had the opportunity to experience two jets(idk what they were specifically) take off with afterburners. It was so incredibly loud. It was a complete assault on the senses. Then you see them disappear through the cloud layer faster than your car can get to highway speed. Such an incredible chance experience.
I live right north of Luke AFB in arizona and i would always see that air training and education command symbol when passing near, i’ve seen their jets do crazy fast turns and spins like this and it always had me in awe at the beauty. i’m glad you posted this video so i can see what the pilots see, it’s beautiful.
I’d be crying with tears of joy!! We just had an air show at Randolph Brooks it was so awesome to see them thunderbirds with my kids.. Brought back my memories from my childhood when we would have air shows at Kelly AFB
The fact the guy in the back is fighting all his demons while the pilot is like “CHOO CHOO!! FALCON TURN!!!!” I’m crying lmao

Man, I can tell you from experience, that this is the ride of a lifetime!! I was a crew chief for the F-15 when I served and got a ride with my pilot. It was nothing short of amazing and I was even given the stick for a few minutes! The pilot will ensure you a great flight and a vertical takeoff if weather permits, but they also tried to make you tap out. All the G's and spinning can make you sick and have you pulling 100% oxygen..lol Loved it though!
Yet another “I know for sure, I was there...well not really, I worked on the ground, but I really wanna be a part of this dialogue...”
Stfu crewman
Can see those G’s taking away his air. Wicked
That never gets old. Fighters are cool.
I can’t stop hearing falcon turn in my head now
When the situation scares the crap out of you but you gotta look good for your boys watching. 😂😂
O preparo para não desmaiar é tremendo.
This pilot was born for this shit. He’s clearly feeling free. 😂
"dont listen to her" what a legendary AWACS
First reaction to the "pull up and altitude" would be oh shit this is how I die then suddenly realizing I'll be fine as the pilot is probably one of the best there is.
I passed out like 3 times and I swear I heard some one playing music with some kind of wind instrument. Pilot was like no you passed the hell out 😂
As a former military avionics & flight systems tech, I can tell you that all those beeps and voice commands are signs of imminent danger. "Choo-choo" and "falcon turn" aren't your typical responses to those imminent danger alerts. Lol 😆
Lol man this pilot is putting him through the ringer quick. No warm ups 😂
Holy shiiit!!!.. i thought he was the pilot... i was thinkin thats the best guy you could find to go up there😂😂
Right into the deep end😂
Choo choo....lmao
In his panic pulls injector seat on accident
Man.. that dude held tough
"Altitude, altitude" that's because the pilots gigantic balls drag the ground.
Those pilots are legends.
Dude got me breathing hard sheesh😅😅
That guy was fighting for his consciousness! Lol 🤣🤣 props tho! He hung in there!
"Pull up. Pull up."
"😒 Don't listen to her."
🤣🤣🤣
No roller coaster in the world can match this level of intensity 😳
How the hell did that man survive the G forces I would have passed away at the start
If I could live again this piloting these incredible machines would be my singular focus. It’s incredible that the limiting factor of capabilities is the human body. I was driving by from Montgomery towards Selma and had the opportunity to experience two jets(idk what they were specifically) take off with afterburners. It was so incredibly loud. It was a complete assault on the senses. Then you see them disappear through the cloud layer faster than your car can get to highway speed. Such an incredible chance experience.
What's it like down there in that ghetto shithole these days?
@@whiplash3kilo756 id never live there. I’m outside of auburn. I was just passing through. It is exactly as you described it
I live right north of Luke AFB in arizona and i would always see that air training and education command symbol when passing near, i’ve seen their jets do crazy fast turns and spins like this and it always had me in awe at the beauty. i’m glad you posted this video so i can see what the pilots see, it’s beautiful.
"I waved..."
"Ha ha!" *pushes stomach into boots*
After flying hang gliders for over 15 years I would almost sacrifice a body part to fly a fighter jet
"Don't listen to her" im dead☠️☠️☠️☠️
“Don’t listen to her” 💀🤣💀🤣💀🤣
I’d be crying with tears of joy!! We just had an air show at Randolph Brooks it was so awesome to see them thunderbirds with my kids.. Brought back my memories from my childhood when we would have air shows at Kelly AFB
I love this! EPIC pilot! Civi did alright, didn't pass out no vomiting! No crying and stayed chipper, lol. The pilot is funny as hell too!
