Take-off from Paro airport, Bhutan
The plane has to ascend quickly and take sharp turns, with the mountains all around. The passengers feel as though the wings are touching the mountain peaks.
Some of the world's most extreme takeoffs and landings occur here.
The airport is 6 km far from Paro, in a deep valley on the bank of the river Paro Chhu. With surrounding peaks as high as 5,500 m, it is considered one of the world's most challenging airports, and fewer than two dozen pilots are certified to land at the airport.
Flights to and from Paro are allowed under visual meteorological conditions only and are restricted to daylight hours from sunrise to sunset. Landing is allowed only during daylight, the
Landing is allowed only during the day- the runway is not even in clear vision of the pilot and requires the airplane to be maneuvered a steep 45 degrees before drastically dropping onto the runway 🌏 www.curlynomad.com 🌏

I have seen these mountain ranges while flying from Kolkata to Bagdogra route in India. Right around 20-30 minutes beofre landing on the left hand side you you get to see them. provided the sky is clear and Blue.
That view is far away view though..with good smartphone camera zoom it can be looked at properly ...You can see the Kanchenjunga, Everest and Lhotse.
However, in this route on your video, the Himalayas are far more closer in terms of visibility. A stunning footage indeed.
i can imagine what you are describing.I first saw this glorious view many years ago, flying from Kathmandu to Delhi, i think, but it was far. This one was an immersive experience, indeed! thank you for being so kind! may you always have great travels and magnificent views of our world!
Some people have actually been on the top. Imagine the plane flying closely and some climbers just reached the summit.. they can just wave and say Hi haha
😏😏😏Good one!!
They can’t wave their hands, it’s beyond freezing.
They would get blasted off the mountain of a plane came any closer
That's gotta be an absolutely surreal experience.
not that close actually .
Imagine flying over Everest and seeing how close it would be to the plane. Even if you are 35,000 feet above sea level, Mount Everest would still look large compared to everything else.
The fact that some people went on top of that mountain is absolutely surreal. The courage they have. WOW
something to respect and admire, yes!

I made it to Base Camp (about 17,500), and I was ready to be done! Ten days just to get that high safely. Imagine another two months to summit Everest! Amazing video!
It was great at the base camp, right? Thank you for the kind words! ☀️😊
It was an absolute honor to be at Base Camp and to see where people set up camp prior to climbing Everest. Such a beautiful and mentally and physically exhausting challenge.
@@al8652 Months to get to the peak 😳? How can climbing Everest peak take months ?
How can it take months to get to the peak 😳
@@omwu1307 It takes about 10 days just to get to Base Camp from Lukla as you constantly ascend and descend to adjust to the altitude. Climbers then usually wait a minimum of two weeks at Base Camp to adjust to the altitude.
There are four camps that climbers stay at along the route to the summit (Nepal side), and it requires climbers to climb up to the camps and descend back down to sleep and adjust to the altitude. Sometimes people have to wait in their tents at each camp due to traffic on the mountain or the deadly weather. It's all about timing to get up the mountain safely while avoiding harsh weather and traffic. You also have to prepare your body as you travel above the Death Zone and to avoid HAPE or HACE due to ascending too quickly (inflammation of the brain).
the summit of mt.everest is actually pretty close to the altitude jumbo jets flight....fantastic...these are HUGE mountains
mountain of the mountains!awesome!
Thats actually not true, Mount Everest is 8 Kilometres high, this plane is still climbing and will go way higher
Bram 8.85 km high
Everest is 8.848 kms
Flight goes above troposphere, which is at about 18km is altitude
@@abdulazeez6642 wtf they don't atleast not the commercial flights
On average they fly between 10 and 11 km
Wow this really puts Mt Everest in true perspective. You hear 29k feet but until you see a plane up there with it, it's hard to picture. That thing is tall!
Exactly, couldn't describe it better! 😊
I live in Shillong in the state of Meghalaya NE India, you would not believe if i tell you that we can see the Great Himalayas from here in the season of Spring in a clear blue sky..🏔🏔
oh i believe you and i'm a bit jealous! :-) the best of views, right? have a nice day!
@@curlynomad jealous 😀, it's 6:15 PM here in Shillong
Do you speak Bengali
@@suyogpokhrel7994 no i dont...here in shillong only english and khasi are the main languages.
Imaging looking at a mountain vertically like Everest at 32,000 feet. AMAZING!! That's one very high mountain..
They just pierce through the clouds. These mountains are still growing. In another million years they will reach space.
:-D
And there will be some complete idiot that will try to climb the thing
It’s frightening to think how high Everest really is,
Really makes you realize just how god damned high those mountains are.
God? Lol
@@novaprime1166 We believe that God exists.
Mount everest is unbelievable height wow very nice.
a glorious mountain, indeed!
@@curlynomad yes am agree.
I can see how proudly everest is saying to the viewvers in plane yes i m the highest or tallest thing on this planet.
⛰️😊
To think at that altitude high and the deepest part of the ocean Mariana trench is still 2 kilo meters higher then Mount Everest scares me ! 😱😱😱
fascinating nature, we cannot but feel awe!
5:53 who is boss
6:22 вообще-то
That's K2
It's quite something to see even from a plane!
Yes! It is an unforgettable experience! 🌟🌟🌟
That puts Mount Everest into a different perspective once you see it from a damn commercial airliner …
Imagine standing on the peak & waving at the airplane & people in either locations seeing each other.
I was studying Everest and thought about the view! I googled it and here I came!
Ηello, i hope you found what you were looking for... i wish you success in your studies!
Wow. Even the Rocky Mountains look small from a plane, for reference.
indeed, everything seems small in comparison.... :-)
@@curlynomad that’s what my girlfriend says
…..about her ex 😭
Considering the planes are pressurized so that people can breath at this altitude, makes you realize how dangerous it is to be climbing so high up....
A wonderful moment, beats video in my RUclips thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! :-)
Mighty Everest 🙌
Wow nepal
5:50 you’re welcome ! ❄️🌄
That's not Everest it's Makalu the 6:25 one is Everest
I thought we can get much closer
S123 Square thats what i thought,too,or at least wanted to happen :-)
Wow a hughes mountains !!!!!
Really spectacular journey through the air, as if swimming on the surface of clouds, and it's appear to be the Mt Everest saying goodbye, who ever come across
exactly!that is so poetic!
Phuc that! No amount 0f money can convince me to attempt to climb this mountain. 😮
A shame to summit Everest that day and miss the views because of the cloud cover 😩😂
yes, that is unfair!
Legend says the creator is still here
Amazing. Such spectacular settlement of goddesses of this planet. Five years already gone past to this day June 26th, 2022
At 6:17 you're looking at K2. K2 is the second tallest mountain on earth and it sits just beside Everest. At 6:33 you're looking at Everest. Now imagine being at the top of one of them and looking down.....at the sky.
That is not K2. K2 is not even in Nepal, they are pretty far from each other
Tarek Sati
K2 is in Pakistan
Oh yeah right
K2 lies on the border between Pakistan and China in the northwest of the Karakoram.
K2 is in Pakistan 🇵🇰 my Country 🥰
Amazing video
Thank you so much! 🙂
Beautiful
Great video
thank you @vinay!! :-D
Great video!
Mel Teague thanks!!😊
Wow 😍
Wow..that's amazing
incredible view!
I agree, it's fabulous.
Very fantastic video with picturesque views of Mount Everest 👍#travelfootmarks
thank you!! :-)
Let's all give credit to Jehovah God our loving heavenly Father maker of heaven and earth.
Cool and I still have all my fingers
fabulous ! liked it , natassa !
Tejendra Baruwal thanks!
Love you nepal🇳🇵🇺🇦🇳🇵🇺🇦❤️❤️
nepal=love
Great upload. Thanks.
Thank you!!
thank you
you're welcome, glad you liked it! 🙂
the speed at lift off from ground, was pretty high, I felt. This could probably be that due to thinner air density, higher speed is needed for lifting off from ground
a spectacular lift-off,indeed!
You're obviously science minded because you are exactly correct. The indicated airspeed read in the cockpit accounts for air density changes between sea level and the flight levels. He needed a greater true airspeed to make up for much less dense air at this higher runway elevation.
Hey there is Scott and Rob Hall
:-D
How far away was the mountain? Doesn't look that far at all, maybe around 20 miles.
don't know exactly, it felt really close but i was wishing we could be even closer
Wow nice filght
indeed!
Such beauty
Magnificent,indeed!have a nice day!
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Can you remove that wing ? for a better view 🙂
😊😊😊
Who is the owner of mighty mount everest? Nepal, pakistan, india or china?
😌😌😌
Which one is Everest?
At 6:08 you can see Makalu. Everest is the one close to the flaps at 6:22 , the small one next to it, is Lhotse :-D
Nice shot of Everest, Lhotze, and Makalu.
thank you!!!😊
Awesome.
Thank you!!
Can kunchenjunga be spotted from plane as well?
I think you can, when flying from Bangkok!
That's Gangtok not Bangkok 🙂
Wow
Grandios
Which one is Everest
At 6:08 you can see Makalu. Everest is the one close to the flaps at 6:22 , the small one next to it, is Lhotse :-D
@@curlynomad It's not Manaslu but Makalu :)
Aleksandar Gospić thank you,! :-)
@@curlynomad you welcome! 👍
Glory be to Allah
Incredible. And that big mean bastards summit is 8,848m.
Lindo demais !!!👏👏👏👏👏
obrigado! :-D
Dislikes for the people on the left
Oh my goodness
what is the distance between plane and everest at that moment i think 200 km?
In the range of 1-2 km
150m
What side of Everest is that? Doesn't really look like Everest
At 6:08 you can see Makalu. Everest is the one close to the flaps at 6:22 , the small one next to it, is Lhotse :-D
@@curlynomad I meant what side of Everest is this ? North, south , east ? Where are you filming from ?
@@Jack_The_Ripper_Here I thought you were confused with the various peaks... the flight is from Paro, Bhutan to Kathmandu, Nepal
You're lucky to get a seat on that side of the plane.
well, of course i consider myself lucky to be able to witness this... but, all the employees must remember me still, from the ones at the tour agency to the ones in the counters, for being so persistant... i had a plan before i even began travelling :-)
Outstanding ,, and it's flattttt
Is there a McDonald’s or any restaurants between the base camps ?
Be cool if they installed a zip line going down to
those type of junkies don't survive there
I think a Starbucks is coming first to the food court at camp 3.
there is a subway just next to the mall on camp 4
That's Mehmet ozyurek sharp nose coming out from his blanket XD
4:11
Is this what Seger was singing about?
:-D
Chomolungma not Mt. Everest.
It is very high but nothing compared to mounth olympus
People be boasting that they have reached that certain altitude but then theres me seeing that guy while I’m on a plane much higher than him.
bank angle
What I learned from this video: The human brain is grander than the tallest mountain on the planet.
Might as well be on the moon.
You are lucy you have seen mount Everest
Oh yes, it's extraordinary!! 😊
its just mountain. plz humans grown up make develope something better for next generation, just climbing for self satisfaction does not make any change in future.
Om
Doesnt even zoom into it smfh
Budhu
I could see some idiot climbing the mountain while flying by.
Mt everest is really scary when you climb😵😵😵😵😵
I mean danger💀💀💀💀
