Dont even fly near high power-lines! there is no possible reason to ever get near them. One of the most horrific things I ever witnessed was a guy in a hang glider trying to do spot landings at the base of a tower. He misjudged his approach and got tangled in the lines. For an hour he screamed for help, for someone to get him down. While the fire department was trying to figure out how to get him down a gust of wind rolled his wing across two of the high power lines. In 15 seconds of white light and screaming he was turned into a molten smoking un recognizable black lump of aluminum, nylon, flesh and bones.
This is almost like an ASMR video, its so good, no talk, just RAW flight. I could watch this just before bed, for calm relaxing vibes. Cheers for posting
Hey Tucker, The Lakes at the bottom of Copper mines is H2SO4, highly concentrated sulfuric acid. Remember our children are emulating you.
You have a great channel keep it going.
Ricky and Stupid are two different things.
I LOVE THIS VIDEO TUCKER!! It makes you feel like you are flying the Paramotor.
Its insane how graceful and locked in you are. I've only been flying 8 months and can't wait to hone my skills this summer.
I love the video but miss the narration.
Yeah, I’m just kind of posting these as an after thought because I’m always rolling. Next time I’ll add some narration.
@@tuckergottuncut7180 Great. Your little story lines add a lot
@tuckergottuncut7180 what do you think about recording directly into an audio recorder? Sync with a hand slap. You could essentially use the same video for each channel and wouldn't miss a reaction or whatever. You could have a specific reason for the audio or just make it random thoughts. You do great narration but these uncuts really help me focus more on the flight. I catch more like your head on a swivel. I can alsmot see sometimes when you're calculating a maneuver. I would probably watch each video too lol. I kind of get lost in the raw audio. Would make for good VR too!
@@87bones87agree.
Must feel good having almost unlimited places to land. great video see you on the next one.
Dude on the dirt bike is thinking "Yeah, I need one of those!".
Love this uncut footage - I’d forgotten how fast paramotors are (since the hay bale slalom days) … one day …
Great video!! Ordered my Risky Biscuits Socks online!!
So epic!! Love these videos!!
those SATs are so sick!
Great vid Mr. T!!!!!!!!!
I have to wonder if I would grow tired of the flat terrain and dry desert landscape. I'm sure you can drive to the mountains and other outstanding sites but, still, I think I'd miss the green landscape, rivers, and the little unique spots dotted around that are all within flying distance of each other... 🤷♂
Flat terrain, probably. But the mountains out here are so insane.
You should come down to tucson and do some flying down here, we have the cool spots.
I live in Phoenix, you are living my dream. Thanks for moving to Arizona!
What a perfect place to launch from! Who in their right mind at an ORV park would complain about you? Saaaaweet!
Exactly. All of the motorcycle guys were stoked.
@@tuckergottuncut7180 Can you say, sales tactic?
What a cool sport for sure your living a dream Tucker!
The desert speaking to us... moreover, I'm highly interested in geocaching randomly out there in the future.
something about this video is really amazing. cant put my finger on it, but FUCK i need one of these. i wish cali wasnt bleeding me poor.
Really weird with no talking but still a great video!! You're definitely living the good life Tucker and it's well deserved. So, I'm sure I've seen at least 90% of your videos and can only recall you dropping 1 phone (or camera) if I'm correct ????
That Mav Max REALLY likes to climb!!
She barks hard. Even on the 14m.
Damn Tucker, you don’t even talk to yourself a little bit when flying? I can’t help it , sounds sometimes like I’m having a conversation with someone haha. Good luck out there bud
Nice
Beware of all the Cholla, they are very painful.
Nice, through the gate
Loved this. Nice to see uncut vids of you flying. I wish the weather in UK was as nice and smooth. I cant get out flying at all here! Seems like its either raining or windy at the moment.
I’m on East Coast US and it’s the same here. The wind speed won’t drop below 15mph most days, which has led me to flying in some air that I don’t 100% trust.
@drakeowen7860 You be careful out there Drake. Don't fly in unsuitable weather my friend.
In SWest London. On edge of Heathrow airspace. Bloody appalling weather. Managed only two short flights this year. Dust setting on Paramotor in shed.
@@reonvanwijk I’ve luckily gotten 3 flights this year. Two of them were nice and smooth but that first one rocked me around so much I didn’t make it back to the LZ and landed out in a field.
I'd be curious if a volt meter would pick up any charge going under those power lines. I have seen high voltage jump 10+ feet between objects.
I work for The Power Company that owns the 500kv lines he flew under. I work under those lines and the equipment they feed every day. Voltage is a comparison of two different potentials. In this case it is either phase to phase (500kv) or phase to ground (284kv). If two phases of those lines were brought closer to each other they probably wouldn't arc to each other until they were at least 10 to 12 feet apart I'd guess depending on humidity or other factors. Tucker flying under them could only create the possibility of bridging one of the phases to ground, so that distance would be even less than 10 feet at only 284kv potential difference (phase to ground voltage) and that would be added between his distance from his feet to the ground and the distance from the top of his wing up to each phase line as he passes under. If he could stop and float under the line he may feel a little static like his hair trying to stand up or something, but he passes each phase so quickly, there's no way he feels anything. His biggest hazard here is hitting the tower or the line itself but close to the tower they are suspended about 90 to 100 ft high (they sag lower between towers) that's why he crosses under them close to a tower every time. Much more clearance distance. From what I'm seeing, Tucker is being smart about it. I see no more hazard here than when he flys under bridges in other videos.
@@air-edge awesome, thanks.
How did i never know about this channel
I hope you will like your new home. Nice weather there most the time. But not much interesting to fly around. Can't wait to see what you come up with. Maybe fly to a fast food place??? Love your videos....
Can't wait to see more videos of you flying in Arizona.
Привет Такер! Здорово летаешь!
Enjoy the spaciousness
That will be all houses in 30 years
What camera are you using on your helmet?
Tucker, how many hours a year do you fly do you think? I really like these uncut videos. Thanks for uploading them! ❤
I used to average 100 a year but now I don't fly as often.
I would say dont forget the guy who started this channel. There are so many people getting into the sport, they still find your vids first
Great video!!!!
Is there any way of measuring the Gs you’re pulling in the rolls? Sounded like you were doing small shallow breaths like the fighter pilots do.
I ran an app one time and it was showing 6 Gs at peak.
How many phones have you dropped?
Don't try to straddle a Saguaro!
Patrolling the border with one of these things would probably get you shot down; but I was thinking about this kind of thing as I was watching this video...
I remember seeing your Glamis sand dune flying videos a while back. Maybe try flying from there to Phoenix?
Awesome video.
Was this the 14M wing? Seemed to have a pretty high sink rate.
Yup! The 14m Freeride 2.
Puckered up a few times on this one lol. Be safe.
South of apache junction?
Hey Tucker,
Whats your cruising Speed there?
Seems to be much higher than what i usually see with paramotors.
Is it only due to your small Wing?
Greets from Germany,
hope youre doing well in your new home:)
Hey Tucker, long time fan and local flyer. Where is this at? It looks like it’s near Gold Canyon on the south side of the road?
It's the Desert Wells OHV staging area just East of the Renaissance Festival.
@@air-edge thanks man. I’ll have to try that one out. I mostly fly Buckeye, lots of grass fields out there, and Maricopa.
When are you going to start a paramotor flight school?
Maybe soon. 😤 Tune into my next RUclips video, on the main channel.
Don't let the Cholla bite ya =)
Do your legs ever get numb?
Nope. Lower back hurts sometimes.
Dude where is that?
I want to know too; been there a few times, but want to know that LZ.
you roots...yes
This is really really dangerous. Electricity can arc - you don’t have to touch the lines to get shocked.
If Tucker hits a cactus, doctors are going to be playing how to get the toothpick out of the martini trick. Yikes. I'd rather hit power lines.
Do you guys kick your legs to acknowledge eachother?
Often 😀
Sats?
Ok just one SAT.
@tuckergottuncut7180 any chance you could make a video of doing a full sat, I do deep spirals and just haven't got the nerve yet to go full sat, would love you to show it
For me... I'd say "just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD" fly around high voltage power lines like that. Even if your not at risk getting caught up in the lines, there's definitely a health risk from the EMF and the disruption to the body.
How many viewers are thinking to themselves "Hey. that is cool. I'll do that too?"
How would TG feel if someone tried to do the same foolish stunt and died? Post what you want but you have a channel that people follow you take some responsibility for saying “do as I do”. I’m a huge fan - been following since the very infancy of the channel but this time I say NO. Fair warning - fly smart - have fun.
@@GrahamRiverProductio Yeah - very good point. I love Tucker's content... but sometimes he crosses a line and I worry a novice pilot will try to do that stuff and get hurt or worse.
I think he pry doesn't change his flying habits just because you guys tell him "dont". Who would?
@Tucker now you have gone west…and there’s less Population do you run an EPIRB eg PLB1
P. K. Ripper,
Tucker, Just imagine an arc from those hi tension lines to the ground and you in between.
Tucker because of your high profile in the public eye, people will try to emulate you.
DON’T DO STUPID SHIT
I think it’s fine. Almost everything I do shouldn’t be emulated without proper training and preparation.
First
Grouse!
