Sir David Attenborough, "And here we see two male Typhoons performing the mating dance in an attempt to win over the female Hercules and impregnate her"
This is one of the best videos I've ever seen. Seeing typhoons flying close up is stunning enough but there's something truly artistic and mesmerising about how they seem to be living things being filmed in their natural environment. It's the music but also that you seem to be watching them interact with the film crew on the tail ramp. Great stuff.
EinkOLED. I was just being facetious, but may I ask your source on that? My data has C-130 stall at 185km/h and Typhoon at 203 km/h...I have been known to be wrong on occasion, actually just once but I was 3 at the time ;)
John O correct but wrong, while these stall speeds reffer to sea level, at this altitude the stall speed of the typhoon is nearly 300knots due to thin air and small wings
You can get this kind of footage of wild Typhoons in autumn and winter, but spring is nesting season for delta canards and the Typhoon will defend its nest aggressively to protect its chicks. Then it's safer to get footage of the Rafale, which is a brood parasite and lays its eggs in unattended Gripen nests.
Nice to see the fighter pilot so close, so exposed, and think about the role of that canopy and his gear in sustaining life at such conditions up to supersonic speeds. Impressive machines!
Wow! I wouldn't think the fighter jet would be so stable being that close to the cargo plane. Everyone did a great job making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Michael Toth We see the fighter jets midair refuelling out over the North Sea on a regular basis. They are trained to fly close and steady. This is epic though.
I was the C130 ground engineer on that flight. What you don’t see is the mirages of the French Air Force that were also part of the exercise now that was the best day at work ever.
M James shit it pretty much is up there against any f22 or f35 after the new upgrades and newer long distance capability the typhoon will decimate both even easier!
Has anyone else noticed that the typhoon has a passing resemblance to an angel interceptor from captain scarlet?, or is it just me?. Great vid by the way!
Yes, I noticed. The Angel Interceptor had a very high tail plane, though... but for a fictional fighter jet it was strangely very close to our later reality. Did you also notice that they launched from basically a flying aircraft carrier (Skybase One, I think). Decades before SHEILD had one!
@@scottmacdonald2302 have you noticed the uncanny remblance of Captain Black, and Mikel Arteta, The Arsenal football club Manager? now that is uncanny lol
For the people saying it's digital (cgi or whatever) this is how they get the shots you see on things like recruitment adverts. Did you think they filmed them from a very high and very fast scissor lift?
I’ve just been sent this. This is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen. The skill level of all concerned is off the charts. To be so close to the typhoon’s, is just mind blowing.
I’ve come back to this so many times throughout the year since I posted. It gives me goosebumps to watch and listen to the doors and fatboy slims music. A match made in heaven.
`It really does seem like a curious animal taking a peek at the cargo plane. It would haunt my dreams if I was a russian fighter pilot. I love combination with the music.
Beautiful airplanes in there element those big engine intakes and the nose look really smart for such a small aircraft these things are monsters incredibly loud in the flesh and unbelievabley agile
Those Typhoons...looks like living creatures...dragons.Pilots...looks like...sitting on them...like horse riders...ore similar.Never saw, such aperiance of this beautifull plain...realy impresive....nice👍☺
When they're up that close, it feels like they are lions staring at the safari truck full of tourists, just waiting for one of them to fall out the vehicle as their camera falls to the ground and gulping the tourist in one of their intakes!
I had the pleasure of working for Desault Falcon Jet at their completion center. One of my best jobs I had. Very friendly folks at that company, extremely professional. They are so much further along imho than that of Cessna or Beechcraft in the private production, much cleaner, much more organized in production atmosphere. I could only imagine being able to work over seas in their government production would be only that much more exciting. True engineering and skilled laborers work of talent any time you see a Desault aircraft.
That's awesome footage.... with the perfect music! It's like dolphins playing with a ship... impressive. Fly on Typhoons, rule the skies like true birds of prey!
I know nothing about military fighters.....but I'd think twice before engaging with one of these deadly machines, maneuvered by highly skilled pilots. Just awesome to watch.
Why do all the americans commenting on here take it for granted that the camera plane is a Hercules? Strangely enough there a lots of cargo aircraft with rear opening ramps. The one featured her is actually an Airbus A400M, an aircraft developed and built in Europe, which thank goodness is not part of the usa.
Beautiful! Presumably the Typhoons come from below the herc to avoid the slipsteam. More than birds it reminds me of dolphins playing and surfacing in the wake of a boat. Still, excellent choice of music to accompany the stunning footage. Can you tell us what your brother was filming for and when and where we might see the end result?
Epic, epic video!! My aviation geekdom is on overdrive!!!! Typhoons be like "'sup buddies!?" Close enough to blow a kiss ;) Mind you, those air intakes.... :o Awesome soundtrack :) One of my faves... Big thumbs up from me B-)
0:53 claustrophobic fOOks please don't apply. Thanks to whoever was behind making this whole thing happen, loved the video and thanks for the upload Dave Foster.
Wife - Hi honey what did you get up to at work today? Husband - I opened the rear door of a transport aircraft and had some fun filming a couple of typhoons performing a rather expensive private air show. Quality (Un pc presumptions for brevity!)
This video gives me shivers... love the edit and music... This would be my dream come true flying with a pilot in a typhoon..reaching sonic boom!! any offers??? I wish
The last time a saw a fighter jet spewing so much black smoke was coming out of an F4 Phantom engine! Why these relatively new, modern jets spew so much smoke?
Clearly this is not the official video but having said that, its better in one way because this unofficial video not only captures those Typhoons really well but manages to do so with scale.
Sir David Attenborough, "And here we see two male Typhoons performing the mating dance in an attempt to win over the female Hercules and impregnate her"
Lmfao
Awsome...lol.
They neally got in there too and let's hope the camera crew isn't from the the Royal Navy because thed definitely be seaman inside lol
Here we see a group of men, all with much cooler jobs than me 🤔
can't agree more (not knowing what you job is, thinking about mine and theirs :D )
He Demo I think David was referring to the guys in the video
i was a C-130 crewmember for 20 yrs....the things we did.....i felt lucky
btw ..that was my MC-130 in the movie Air Force One....really fun ..and we really did that.
Hahahah. But you are funnier...!

Search for 'french air force promotional video'. Its like this but with mirages and epic!
Looks like a shark sticking its nose up to get a good look at you.
I agree 💯%
You have wrote what my mind is trying to say absolutely perfectly wrote my friend
Poor old Hercules straining at full speed while the Typhoons are about to stall!
John O The Hercules stall speed is higher than the typhoon. In other words the the typhoon can fly slower (when configured) than the Hercules.
EinkOLED. I was just being facetious, but may I ask your source on that?
My data has C-130 stall at 185km/h and Typhoon at 203 km/h...I have been known to be wrong on occasion, actually just once but I was 3 at the time ;)

I was about to say before I read this, that Tornado's practically standing on its tail lol
John O correct but wrong, while these stall speeds reffer to sea level, at this altitude the stall speed of the typhoon is nearly 300knots due to thin air and small wings
Damn! That thing looks menacing. Like a shark studying the menu card at lunch time.
paul weston The Eurofighter is a cool machine but still a copycat.
B Buse a copycat of what?? The typhoon is a beast without doubt the best jet in operation today!
Danny Griffiths Of JAS. Saab Viggen and so forth. Even the Rafael is a copycat.
B Buse it looks nothing like a Saab Viggen! It has delta wings and canards, that's about all that similar.
(Y) Like your comment!

David Attenborough in "Life of Fighters." 😄
Imagine your boss saying:
"Tomorow we gonna shoot some Typhoons in air from a military cargo plane."
Would you sleep that night?
I'd be up backing everything twice just to make sure nothing got forgotten!
I'd be constantly jumping up and down clapping my hands. I'd be referred to a mental asylum but what the hell: filming typhoons... worth it))
Paul Newson j
Nobody got that joke who replied
Or being told your filming the guys filming the planes................
Things like this really make me think about how incredible human beings are. Fantastic stuff!
Its crazy isn't it. We went from cave men rubbing stick together and discovering fire....to this.
Such an awsome aircraft the eurofighter saw it last year at Blackpool airshow the noise was breathtaking has to be one of my favourite aircraft
Nice to see the fighter pilot so close, so exposed, and think about the role of that canopy and his gear in sustaining life at such conditions up to supersonic speeds. Impressive machines!
Awww, the Eurofighter Jet looks SO CUTE at 0:48!!
They look so close that you almost want to pet the Typhon in the nose...
Awesome images!!
I always come back to find this video.
That is simply amazing. Its like a dolphin jumping out of the water. You can almost just touch the nose. Amazing flight abilities
That song made me want to jump out the back of the Herc.
That's not a song. It's a claw hammer gouge in the top of a Steinway. I hit mute so fast I broke the mouse.
Not A Herc FAR to NARROW from my memory of hercs even wrong engines
Me too and without a parachute 😂
It's an A400M atlas
Wow! I wouldn't think the fighter jet would be so stable being that close to the cargo plane. Everyone did a great job making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Discover Channel Narrator "And all of a sudden, an adult male of Typhoon apprears"
Those words rang out in true David Attenborough style 👌
I would've loved to see the pilot's perspective from this event!
me too
I was the C130 ground engineer on that flight. What you don’t see is the mirages of the French Air Force that were also part of the exercise now that was the best day at work ever.
They saw the video of Russians doing this with a Flanker and were like "hold my Guinness, lad..."
No, the Russians saw this video ...=))
Шикарно сделал! Respect! =))
Guinness? Maybe a Pint of Spitfire Ale .
just for a second, hanging there, it looked like the original Hawker Typhoon - that massive intake under the nose gives a good idea of engine power
What a beautiful bird. Really menacing looking. I actually like the look of it better than the F-22 or F-35.
I think it’s all in that beautiful delta wing
Absolutely agree. However, I don’t think the F35 is even in that league
In a league above both dynamically, F22 is older tech and F35 is sub shit
M James shit it pretty much is up there against any f22 or f35 after the new upgrades and newer long distance capability the typhoon will decimate both even easier!
Chad Thatcher And faster left 22🧐
here are explained the origins of lots of wallpapers
Indeed.
Just overtake me ffs !! Damn Euro fighter pilots nearly as bad as BMW drivers for tailgating lol 😹👌
Your comment make me laugh.
I also experience this about most BMW drivers and other fast German made cars. just slow down,it pisses them off👍
lol
And they don’t use their indicators either
Has anyone else noticed that the typhoon has a passing resemblance to an angel interceptor from captain scarlet?, or is it just me?. Great vid by the way!
Capt Scarlet ,well fuck me if that's not a blast from the past .It was a great show . Scarlet sticking it up the mystarons
Yes, I noticed. The Angel Interceptor had a very high tail plane, though... but for a fictional fighter jet it was strangely very close to our later reality. Did you also notice that they launched from basically a flying aircraft carrier (Skybase One, I think). Decades before SHEILD had one!
@@scottmacdonald2302 have you noticed the uncanny remblance of Captain Black, and Mikel Arteta, The Arsenal football club Manager? now that is uncanny lol
I always thought the Angel interceptor looked like the Bristol 188 'flaming pencil'.
@@chrismadge5472 Aarrrghh! Now I'll never unsee that. Thanks a bunch! 😅
For the people saying it's digital (cgi or whatever) this is how they get the shots you see on things like recruitment adverts. Did you think they filmed them from a very high and very fast scissor lift?
Just look at the attitude of the Typhoon it was flying so slow it must have been close to stalling!
Back in 1991 we took pics of Tornado F3...and the pilot touches the tail door harnesses with the nose test pitot probe...

looks like a shark @ the back of a boat waiting for someone to fall off ....nice video
I was watching fireworks called Typhoon something when I saw this.
Truly amazing. Typhoon Pilots are incredible. Well done to you all :-)
Came across this video while in Paris...right at a key moment in my life... thanks for posting this...just love everything about it x
This along with the track gave me heavy shivers.
I'd want to stand on the end of the ramp and touch the Typhoons nose 😄
`It really does seem like a curious animal taking a peek at the cargo plane. It would haunt my dreams if I was a russian fighter pilot. I love combination with the music.
Ken giggles at over-the-top rejection of viewpoint.

The epitome of death and destruction but beautiful at the same time.

Great video, thanks for posting. Any chance of another copy being posted without the overlay of music?
+Gogle Plus Sucks - easy, put it through keepvid and choose one of the video only options.
+Gogle Plus Sucks Turn off your speaker?
oh god that's funny . and with the question mark , lmfao rn
mute is your copilot
Yes you can mute it, but then you don't get the ambient sounds picked up while filming.
No FUCKING way. Beautiful. Question, how did you use this track without a strike?
Typhoon is beautiful
These fighter pilots are something else
One of the most beautiful and menacing aircraft ever produced, here's to the Tiffie...
What ever country you are from. You should support your military personnel. I love this video.
Favourite video ever, full stop.
Graceful yet deadly.
Top of the food chain yet beautiful
Cut through the air like sharks in the sky.
Thank you
Those Typhoons...looks like living creatures...dragons.Pilots...looks like...sitting on them...like horse riders...ore similar.Never saw, such aperiance of this beautifull plain...realy impresive....nice👍☺
Great recruitment video for future fighter pilots of GB.
I love the Typhoon
I was a USAF crew chief on F-4 Phantoms, the Typhoon is a beautiful aircraft, while the Phantom was just a beast :)
И ваш тайфун,и ваш фантом СУ30 обейх нагнет.
The great white shark of the skies
When they're up that close, it feels like they are lions staring at the safari truck full of tourists, just waiting for one of them to fall out the vehicle as their camera falls to the ground and gulping the tourist in one of their intakes!

Typhoon is the only plane that could probably have a chance out maneuvering the f-22 I think.
When you're doing 29mph in a 30mph zone!!!!!😂😂😂
That's awesome footage.... with the perfect music!
It's like dolphins playing with a ship... impressive.
Fly on Typhoons, rule the skies like true birds of prey!

Absolute a beautiful fighter aircraft with its elegance looks and menacing stance.
Was a T.V. commercial shot on an Arri 435 for the RAF
John Foster do you know where to find that footage?
Has to be the experience of a lifetime to be there filming this absolutely awesome 👌
0:48 this was so awesome, I did feel goosebump

Brilliant footage and a great track to accompany it!! Fatboy Slim - (Sunset) Bird Of Prey.. Very nice!!
Louis Hicks ..you may know , thats jim morrison singing
Obama's Purple Lips great fatboy song. Im just saying the voice is jim morrison . So no i am calm about it all :)
I thought it was Jim Morrison but I didn't recognize the tune as a Doors tune.
Absolutely fucking Incredible!! What an office view!! My absolute favorite video! Thanks for sharing!🇬🇧🇬🇪🇬🇧🇬🇪🇬🇧☠
Bloddy amazing Typhoons, they are just unbelievable sometimes, what a plane, like a dolphin in the sea! 👌🏻
i have forgotten how many times iv watched this now, FIFFYS are beautiful birds of prey pun intended
That was fantastic guys great music fitted well with the video :)
Its like a Sea Gull waiting for bread pieces.
... or a white shark that observes curious and annoyed in a cage full of scuba divers.
Milano Walter yes..except the cage is wide open.
Holy aerodynamics!!.....And INCREDIBLE human ingenuity!!!!
Epic, epic video!! My aviation geekdom is on overdrive!!!! Typhoons be like "'sup buddies!?" Close enough to blow a kiss ;) Mind you, those air intakes.... :o Awesome soundtrack :) One of my faves... Big thumbs up from me B-)
Such a beautiful bird with a sinister edge
thats a great piece of film.WHAT A BUZZ THAT MUST HAVE BEEN
spitfire for the 21st century
The Typhoon looks tough.
Camera man shows middle finger
Typhoon pilot: wanna seen the jets finger available below?
Seems that no one forgot to turn the radar off. Coulda been a cook-out for microprocessors, on the back of a C-130 lol.
Amazing footage! It looks like a hungry great white eyeing up it's next dinner!

Just as we observe animals in nature and photograph them and they come closer to look closer. Beautiful birds

so majestic
