5:41 If the plane had been at cruising altitude, there would have been well over 20,000 pounds of force on the door; it wouldn't have opened for anyone. As has been explained on many aviation channels, the only reason he was able to open it even at the low level they were at, where the pressure would have been around 100 lbs. or so, was because it was low enough for the plane's safeties to be disabled and the door had a mechanical assist.
Thank you!!! I was looking for this comment. The fact that this narrator said that without looking in the mirror and thinking "why am I blatantly lying to people", boggles my mind. That was my first thought. There is NO WAY THEY CAN OPEN THE DOOR AT HIGH ALTITUDE! Nice to see someone with actual knowledge. Thank You!
It clearly says they were close to touch down and not at cruising altitude, but I agree. It’s a huge common sense thing considering there’s footage too. Everyone’s dissecting it like it’s not obvious how it was possible. The higher you go the harder it becomes to open a plane door like 😅
RAF and USAF to flying drills like this in the English countryside all the time, which is training for the insane combat drops those aircraft are often used for. that pilot made it past the buildings thinking "man i had MILES of room"
The small airplane that "flew to close to the ground" lost control because he was flying too slowly. Classic stall-spin accident. He's extremely lucky to have survived, let alone be able to open the cockpit and just walk away.
The Korean man would not be able to open the door at a higher altitude because the difference in pressure would seal the door shut. They are designed to be able to open at lower attitudes to allow an emergency exit.
Kelsey on 74Gear did a piece on this. The commentary on here is wrong, wrong, wrong!!! The guy would never get the door open at higher altitude and the plane would not be torn apart.
The student pilot who landed on the highway had better have kept up with their lessons. That was a damn good landing! Beautifully smooth touchdown, and to do it in between all them cars too. That's a talented pilot right there.

1:54 Not sure if that was supposed to be humour, but no, the flames are not coming from the bird in the engine. That's a bog standard compressor stall, which causes the flames that are normally inside the engine to be expelled out the back in surges. It would do this same thing if the engine had ingested something inflammable as well. It's somewhat comparable to a car backfiring. (Edit: the BBC quoted a Manchester Airport spokesman as saying that it was the birds burning, but I suspect either that person didn't know what a compressor stall was or just didn't feel like explaining it to the press.)
It's not possible to open an aircraft door at altitude. The pressure differential prevents anyone but The Hulk from opening. Low in the atmosphere, it's possible because the pressure inside and outside are almost equal.
Moving air has lower pressure than stationary air. Learn a fundamental law of fluid dynamics called the Bernoulli Principle. Even at low altitude moving air on the skin of the airplane has lower pressure than the air inside the cabin. Also, as you increase altitude, outside air pressure and density fall. That is why the cabin of anything flying above 10,000 feet has to be pressurized or everyone has to be on oxygen. So at altitude if you unlatch that cabin door you have two reasons why air pressure outside is lower, the Bernoulli Principle and a pressurized cabin who's air pressure is much higher than the air pressure outside. The door would not just open, it would be ripped from the airplane followed by an explosive decompression of the cabin that would suck the contents of the cabin, people, seats, blankets, whatever, out the door explosively.

Well it is really a liquid tight toilet that has to contain the contents when a P-3 does hard maneuvers, including 90 degrees angle of bank, to stay on top of an enemy sub during an attack, and when an Aussie pilot decides to do some mild aerobatics. I've also seen one our E-2 Hawkeyes at a foreign military field go blazing down the runway at 50 feet and do a rolling break at the upwind numbers (in the US the break is accomplished at pattern altitude, usually 1500 feet above ground). I had my fun that way too but I am not going to put myself on report here :)-
As a 757 Captain I must correct the record. Those flames were not burning bird. The engine was critically damaged and the flames are due to the engine malfunctioning, most likely due to compressor damage. Second, the 757 cannot dump fuel. They would have landed overweight which is not necessarily a big deal as long as the runway was long enough. Get your facts straight.
Also they might have flown patterns just burning fuel if they couldn't dump it, cause as I'm sure you know it can fly perfectly well on one engine (But then again you might just want to land cause they probably didn't know if it would affect the other engine or not). I'm not a pilot so I can't judge but just make observant questions.
Nbr. 10: Bird strikes are no joke; however, a "herring" strike... in the air? 🤔 Those most have been some hefty flying fish. 😜 Best part of the narration (1:50) "...the flames you see are not because the engine caught fire; they're coming from the roasted herrings stuck inside."
There IS a bird species called a "heron", you know... Accents are funny, though... haha AND no... The flames were NOT from the creature (no matter what it was) that got ingested by the engine... It was from the broken turbine pieces crashing through the rest of the turbines and destroying their ability to do their jobs... what results is fire escaping where you want it "in the core" of the engine, in a series of relatively rapid bursts while the pressures inside the engine "go all over the place"... It's a standard "compressor stall" as the turbine engine technicians call it. AND just about any kind of debris getting sucked into a jet engine can cause that kind of damage... Even some engines have suffered compressor stalls for metal fatigue taking out just a few blades from one of the compressor (to the front/intake side) turbines and flailing around through the rest of it, tearing stuff apart at the speeds those things spin. ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464, we know he was mispronouncing heron. It’s his commitment to it, saying it more than once, that’s funny. You’d think he’d catch it in editing and fix it. That’s why we’re all making flying fish jokes, especially since herring are tiny.
@@ItsJustLisa Well, just so you know, without context there's no good way to tell which by enunciation alone in my area. It's all said in the same intonation of hairrin' around here. Like I said (and I stand by it) "Accents are funny". ;o)
When I was active duty we had an A-6 experience a compressor stall while flying a low level route in the Cascades. The pilot secured the engine, declared an emergency and returned to base safely. Upon disassembly and inspection of the failed engine a fish was discovered inside. A fish! WTF, over? The best anyone could figure was the low level A-6 scared the bejeezus out of an eagle or osprey who released a freshly captured fish from their claws ( jettison cargo, lol ) to escape certain death, and the fish got sucked into the inlet and fodded the engine.
@@philsalvatore3902 Well... there HAVE been reports of "raining frogs" in certain areas from time to time, usually (in later studies) found to most probably be from water-spouts and/or the odd overpowered thermal updrafts that can accompany certain thunder-storms and "super cells"... SO that's also possible... I guess. MOST likely, though, you're probably right about the scared bird... AND did you know vultures are known to "vomit" when frightened into flight, at least occasionally??? It's been suggested as a defensive mechanism... In any case, I'd hazard the guess that quite a variety of "weird sh*t" has been ingested into jet engines to force emergency shut-downs and landings over the years... ;o)
I'm from Brisbane so let me explain. We host this even called river fire where on the day you get to experience amazing things like a jet flyby either an EA18G Growler Or FA18 Super Hornet. However seeming we like a bit of thrill they do a low flyby so we can experience the roar coming from the engines. So what the C17 was doing in this clip was just giving the people what they came for, a sick low flyby for an amazing air show. So what was going on hear was just an Air show preformed by professionals. Also they do rehearsals the day before the event so they can get it right. We also have a Army helicopter show
One day while out for my daily jog I saw a high wing Piper land between lanes full of traffic on a busy San Diego boulevard. Because it was a high wing airplane the wings were more or less above the cars and the pilot managed to get the fuselage down between the cars, however the wing struts clipped a few cars and did some damage. I was there before the emergency crews arrived.
@@SpeccyHoraceactually there was a really scary incident in Greece in 2005, where due to pressurisation issues an entire plane basically flew most of the 2 hour flight as a ghost plane and by the time it crashed almost everyone on board was already dead/permanently brain damaged from hypoxia
Extremely trained? Oh, thank god, then of course absolutely nothing can happen. Becaude aircraft disasters just don’t happen to trained pilots - so go on sonny and fly as close to the skyscraper as you can!
Yep. Just like they have to do in combat. Oh wait - pilot to tower - we can't attack just yet - the enemy is refusing to move out in the open where they'll be much easier targets .... ROFLMAO 🤣😂😅😆 @@Virtualnoaidi
1:01 Herring is a type of fish. The word you are looking for is "Heron." 5:41 If he had tried to open the door at cruising altitude it would have been impossible to get it open because of the air pressure. Also, please don't call the runway "tarmac." 7:22 Not that hard to tell what happened. This was a stall caused by banking too steep at too slow a speed, meaning the wings lost the lift required to keep the plane in the air. There was no way he could recover at such a low altitude. 10:19 Definitely organized 17:22 Communication with ATC? This is more just relying on your instruments than anything. Not much difference taking off or landing with low visibility in a sandstorm than in snow or fog. Also, the engines are designed to withstand small particles like sand, and the sand is probably not going to enter the cockpit, except maybe via bleed air, but still it would be highly unlikely for any avionics and electrical systems to get damaged.
I don't think he lost power. I think he was flying slow on purpose as part of his act. He seems to be maintaining that speed the whole straight stretch, but then didn't power up enough (or in time) for the turn at the end.
@@wallyman292 I think he lost airspeed and lift on the last turn and side slipped down. Pretty much what you said, just needed a bit of throttle . Glad he walked out of it, I only doe flight sims now, and die at least twice every day.
In the spring of 1972, when I was but a wee lad of about 4 years old, I saw a plane what make an emergency landing on a street right by my house! It was really cool!
A few things. 1. On the “emergency exit” clip, this dude wasn’t some clueless dude needing help, he knew exactly what was happening, Emergebcy Exits are designed to only be accessible above 1000 feet due to pressurization reasons. 2. Luckily he couldn’t of done it during cruising as they are inaccessible above 1000 feet.
i wouldn’t say 1000ft… has nothing to do with altitude exactly more so the relevant pressure outside. ie take Denver airport for example is 5400ft up LOL if that emergency exit didn’t work at 5400 ft there’s be an issue….. you could honestly probably open it anywhere below whatever altitude the cabin is pressurized to. usually 5-6000ft give or take so anything below that it would prob open.
7:25 That’s not really a loss of control, that’s a stall due to improper energy management. He’s trying to do low airspeed maneuvers, and he’s playing games right at the edge of the envelope. He’s lucky to be alive.
Because the record was held so long ago. If you had cared about women you would know. Just like men, you should follow and read about people you feel is significant. Men watch men play sports, read about them and their achievements. But Women don't do the same for other women. Except Taylor Swift.
@@cooperallen7145 Are you telling me I don't care enough about women's achievements? Really? It's not that women's achievements are practically hidden, and people must be lucky enough to stumble on them outside of women's studies in university? Are you an advocate for women's studies? Or no?
@jeanettemarkley7299 I'm saying that most women couldn't careless about what records were held or about women history as a whole. They don't show up for women's sports like men do. But records weren't cared about or sent out the way they are today. Few people even knew she got the record. And she went missing not long after. So that took precedent. But the mass of most things are men. Men have the most records. Most patents, etc etc.
I’m embarrassed to say I know how # 8 feels… Back in 2003 I had to fly to Nairobi Kenya from Southern California, via a first 12 hour flight to Europe then immediately continued on to a very very smelly 10 hour flight to Nairobi. After over 20 hours of flight time and 24 hours traveling straight over all… I wanted to open the damn door and get out as well… 😮
The military plane was doing an exercise for an air show it was done on purpose. Furthermore the incident with the U.S coast guard helicopter was caused by a micro burst causing the main rotor to lose effectiveness and caused the helicopter to drop toward the ocean u can tell by how much pitch and power was added as it dropped
Been there, done that. Scary times when you have your nose attitude and airspeed set for maximum rate of climb and you are pulling max continuous power but you are still falling out of the sky.
In other news, following the flying herring attack on a passenger jet the ISS was pummeled by a pair of irate sticklebacks earlier today. No astronauts were injured.
@@DrivermanO, you did. I rolled it back and he definitely said herrings. The fishermen in Killybegs Ireland would be very surprised that the fish that don’t make it into their nets are flying themselves to Manchester to sacrifice themselves in jet engines.
It's impossible to open up an airplane door at cruising altitude. The strength of every passenger aboard that plane could not open that door. The pressures outside the fuselage or air frame are incredible. So when he says, imagine if he opened the door at cruising altitude? Well I can't imagine it. Because it's impossible!
LOL. There was no cry of "9 11" in Australia. Those numbers are back to front from how we say them (9 11 here is the 9th of November). We knew it was a RAAF display due to it taking place at River Fire (an annual event). The RAAF always have jets fly over and do a "dump and burn"....this time, they added something bigger and more exciting.
7:20 bank angle was too high. He basicly stalled the plane with his wings almost 90 degrees turned. That means the plane does not have any lift, and drops to the ground. Being so low, the plane did not have any time to get speed back up. You can hear the engine roar on the last second before impact. The pilot tried to increase airspeed to actually get lift under the wings after leveling the plane again, but yeah. Planes drop fast... I can tell you that.
No, the opposite is true. There is a law of fluid dynamics known as the Bernoulli Principle that states as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases. Air is a fluid and behaves in this way. If it did not airplanes would not fly and carburetors would not work. Moving air on the skin of the airplane has lower pressure than air inside the cabin. Now if you go up to the kinds of altitudes most airliners use, the air is very thin and the outside static pressure is very low (I'm a pilot and we live and die on what is known as "density altitude:). At altitude the cabin is pressurized so people have air to breathe. Outside the cabin the air is very thin and pressure is low. If you unlatch that door at altitude it will be ripped out of the airplane and there will be an explosive decompression that sucks much of the contents of the cabin including the passengers right out the door.
Yep plane engines are designed to have enough power to take-off with just one. Having two engines is really just a redundancy, cause if you only have one and it fails... well... need I say more.
Grew up in Brisbane. That was one of the rehearsals for the RAAF to attend Riverfire. It happens every year. Everyone was notified ahead of it, that’s why they were filming. No one ever complained or compared it to 9/11. Please stop spreading misinformation about my country.
Noone should because - in Birsbane, there is real plane flying as you said every year, while 711, it was TV stunt. No planes involved at all. Unless someone live in Cartoon Network. I guess we could expect simmilar result if something bad happen as when B25 hit the Empire State Building.
It's always dicey when words are pronounced unintuitively, but yeah, I grew up hearing it as Bris-bin, even. I guess when you somehow never hear it pronounced correctly, you say it how you heard. I once heard someone pronounce Yosemite National Park like Yo-seh-might, which definitely made my body implode.
Cool video but the title is really overhyped considering that a large number of plane accidents have been caught on video that were way more terrifying, including the Air France Concorde crash, National Airlines 102 crash (Boeing 747 cargo plane crashing soon after takeoff in Afghanistan), the Tu-144 crashing at a Paris Airshow in 1973, Air France F296Q (brand new A320 full of passengers crashed after pilots decided to perform a stunt at an airshow), TransAsia Airways 235 (ATR72 crashes into bridge in Taiwan) - to list only a few of the most harrowing ones!
Number 10. Not birds, it's a compressor stall. There's a big difference. Number 8. Correct up until it said it could possibly rip the plane apart. It wouldn't, it would put more stress on the structure, potentially causing more damage but not rip apart Number 7. He did not lose control. The most likely scenario is he stalled, seeing his low speed and bank angle Number1 it's not any less visibility than fog. I would be worried if i was being told by ATC how to fly. Have you ever heard of instruments. Pilots use those to help fly.
The military plane in Australia it's a C 17 global marster and this is normal it's an Avent that happens in Brisbane Queensland Australia every year it's called river fire and that is a pre planned route so it didn't all most crash
15:55 That sandstorm maybe didn't stop that dumb pilot. But all 4 engines has now to be detailed checked, and probably have to be swapped completely.^^ Well done, Mr. pilot.^^ I guess he isn't flying anymore.^^ A sandstorm is not lasting for hours. Cannot understand why the tower is allowing aircrafts to take off while the storm. Especially an A380. Unbelievable. Such a treatment without any respect to such a great new aircraft. That Airline and that pilot should fly Cessnas from now on.^^
What on earth are you on about? The engines are literally built for that. Before you go talking about things you don't know about actually go and research about the design of the a380 Rolls-Royce Trent 900 (A380-841/-842) Engines. If I could look up the name, I think you could do some research as well.
@@slushyplane I am an aircraft technician and by all respect, aircraft engines are build LITERALLY just for running in sandstorms? Didn't knew that, dude.^^ For sure the engine withdraw such things, but in any case, the lifetime of the engine is DEFINITELY got shortened. And definitely an Engine Borescope Inspection will follow. In the maintenance we are doing a lot of checks, and this one is highly recommended. Cause we have to guarantee the passengers and the crews life. Like after a bird strike, the engine has to be detailed checked, and also engines are build to withstand bird strikes.

As they say: every landing you walk away from is a good landing.
But the plane was in western Russia. Had it been in eastern Russia, it may not have crashed.

Even some engines have suffered compressor stalls for metal fatigue taking out just a few blades from one of the compressor (to the front/intake side) turbines and flailing around through the rest of it, tearing stuff apart at the speeds those things spin. ;o)
@@gnarthdarkanen7464, we know he was mispronouncing heron. It’s his commitment to it, saying it more than once, that’s funny. You’d think he’d catch it in editing and fix it. That’s why we’re all making flying fish jokes, especially since herring are tiny.
@@ItsJustLisa Well, just so you know, without context there's no good way to tell which by enunciation alone in my area. It's all said in the same intonation of hairrin' around here. Like I said (and I stand by it) "Accents are funny". ;o)
When I was active duty we had an A-6 experience a compressor stall while flying a low level route in the Cascades. The pilot secured the engine, declared an emergency and returned to base safely. Upon disassembly and inspection of the failed engine a fish was discovered inside. A fish! WTF, over? The best anyone could figure was the low level A-6 scared the bejeezus out of an eagle or osprey who released a freshly captured fish from their claws ( jettison cargo, lol ) to escape certain death, and the fish got sucked into the inlet and fodded the engine.
@@philsalvatore3902 Well... there HAVE been reports of "raining frogs" in certain areas from time to time, usually (in later studies) found to most probably be from water-spouts and/or the odd overpowered thermal updrafts that can accompany certain thunder-storms and "super cells"... SO that's also possible... I guess.
MOST likely, though, you're probably right about the scared bird...
AND did you know vultures are known to "vomit" when frightened into flight, at least occasionally??? It's been suggested as a defensive mechanism...
In any case, I'd hazard the guess that quite a variety of "weird sh*t" has been ingested into jet engines to force emergency shut-downs and landings over the years... ;o)
Yes! I wanna see such a video just like that! Thanks! :)
Herring (herrings as stated here) is a type of FISH. I think what you mean is Heron. A large crane species type of bird.
Or Herring Gulls, a much more common bird than Herons
I'm from Brisbane so let me explain. We host this even called river fire where on the day you get to experience amazing things like a jet flyby either an EA18G Growler Or FA18 Super Hornet. However seeming we like a bit of thrill they do a low flyby so we can experience the roar coming from the engines. So what the C17 was doing in this clip was just giving the people what they came for, a sick low flyby for an amazing air show. So what was going on hear was just an Air show preformed by professionals. Also they do rehearsals the day before the event so they can get it right. We also have a Army helicopter show
i miss the fireballs...
@@StonedIn0z word
Yes! The "Dump and Burn" from the F1-11's@@StonedIn0z
Watching a plane land on the street right by my house that I was playing on was a really cool experience for a 5 year old child!
One day while out for my daily jog I saw a high wing Piper land between lanes full of traffic on a busy San Diego boulevard. Because it was a high wing airplane the wings were more or less above the cars and the pilot managed to get the fuselage down between the cars, however the wing struts clipped a few cars and did some damage. I was there before the emergency crews arrived.
I’d say we missed a big event in the early 2000s on this list which probably was the scariest aviation event
Yes, my flight to Greece when they ran out of beer.
@@SpeccyHoraceactually there was a really scary incident in Greece in 2005, where due to pressurisation issues an entire plane basically flew most of the 2 hour flight as a ghost plane and by the time it crashed almost everyone on board was already dead/permanently brain damaged from hypoxia
@@memelord7567 That's horrific.
The military plane does that ever year for a air show called the River Fire in Brisbane City and they are extremely trained for it.
Exactly. Did you go this year it was awsome
Extremely trained? Oh, thank god, then of course absolutely nothing can happen. Becaude aircraft disasters just don’t happen to trained pilots - so go on sonny and fly as close to the skyscraper as you can!
Yep. Just like they have to do in combat. Oh wait - pilot to tower - we can't attack just yet - the enemy is refusing to move out in the open where they'll be much easier targets .... ROFLMAO 🤣😂😅😆 @@Virtualnoaidi
A heart attack victim being rescued by a helicopter on choppy seas in bad weather does not sound like a good idea. Couldn’t that make things worse?
10:10 Imagine seeing this outside your skyscraper window 😬😬😬😬
1:01 Herring is a type of fish. The word you are looking for is "Heron."
5:41 If he had tried to open the door at cruising altitude it would have been impossible to get it open because of the air pressure. Also, please don't call the runway "tarmac."
7:22 Not that hard to tell what happened. This was a stall caused by banking too steep at too slow a speed, meaning the wings lost the lift required to keep the plane in the air. There was no way he could recover at such a low altitude.
10:19 Definitely organized
17:22 Communication with ATC? This is more just relying on your instruments than anything. Not much difference taking off or landing with low visibility in a sandstorm than in snow or fog. Also, the engines are designed to withstand small particles like sand, and the sand is probably not going to enter the cockpit, except maybe via bleed air, but still it would be highly unlikely for any avionics and electrical systems to get damaged.
As someone from the UK, I can attest that flying herrings are a major hazard
And most alarming.
And very tasty when grilled. Nom Nom Nom :-P
I love that “ two Herrings” flew into the engine, sounds a bit fishy to me😂😂😂😂o
Its not possible to open a passenger plane at cruseing altitude. The military transport plane is well known exercise.
I think you mean Herring Gulls, Herring is a fish. Gave me a jolly good laugh though!!!!😂😂😂
I love when you say a type of plane then show a video of a different type of plane
the russian crash at the air show looks like he lost power. the plane was going VERY slow, and banking he stalled out and just dropped
I don't think he lost power. I think he was flying slow on purpose as part of his act. He seems to be maintaining that speed the whole straight stretch, but then didn't power up enough (or in time) for the turn at the end.
@@wallyman292 I think he lost airspeed and lift on the last turn and side slipped down. Pretty much what you said, just needed a bit of throttle . Glad he walked out of it, I only doe flight sims now, and die at least twice every day.
@@wallyman292 You could see the plane trailing smoke before it turned. He had an engine problem.
If you look carefully you can see the plane trailing smoke before it crashed.
A pair of herrings?! 🤣 I thought your pronunciation of Lanzarote was pretty funny but the herrings had me dying 💀😆
In the spring of 1972, when I was but a wee lad of about 4 years old, I saw a plane what make an emergency landing on a street right by my house!
It was really cool!
It's nice to see everyone running to help the small plane
That helicopter pilot needs some new underpants 😂 great save
If I was the medevac guy I would pass on that flight.
@@user-wi9hv2pb2q 🤣🤣🤣
Nice pal of mine. Love your vids
A few things.
1. On the “emergency exit” clip, this dude wasn’t some clueless dude needing help, he knew exactly what was happening, Emergebcy Exits are designed to only be accessible above 1000 feet due to pressurization reasons.
2. Luckily he couldn’t of done it during cruising as they are inaccessible above 1000 feet.
i wouldn’t say 1000ft… has nothing to do with altitude exactly more so the relevant pressure outside. ie take Denver airport for example is 5400ft up LOL if that emergency exit didn’t work at 5400 ft there’s be an issue….. you could honestly probably open it anywhere below whatever altitude the cabin is pressurized to. usually 5-6000ft give or take so anything below that it would prob open.
@@Trex1094 well I think it’s ground altitude. I just know there is a limit.
@@mikethebigman no not ground altitude. the pressure difference is what allows the doors to be opened or not.
@@Trex1094 ohhh. Sorry I got the information from 74 Gear
@@jobyfluorine4488 sorry about that I do a sloppy job while talking on RUclips,
7:25 That’s not really a loss of control, that’s a stall due to improper energy management. He’s trying to do low airspeed maneuvers, and he’s playing games right at the edge of the envelope. He’s lucky to be alive.

10:10 history almost repeating
I'm not surprised that I never heard of Amelia Earhart's record for altitude until after a man broke it.
YUP, my thought exactly!
Because the record was held so long ago. If you had cared about women you would know. Just like men, you should follow and read about people you feel is significant. Men watch men play sports, read about them and their achievements. But Women don't do the same for other women. Except Taylor Swift.
@@cooperallen7145 Are you telling me I don't care enough about women's achievements? Really? It's not that women's achievements are practically hidden, and people must be lucky enough to stumble on them outside of women's studies in university?
Are you an advocate for women's studies? Or no?
@jeanettemarkley7299 I'm saying that most women couldn't careless about what records were held or about women history as a whole. They don't show up for women's sports like men do. But records weren't cared about or sent out the way they are today. Few people even knew she got the record. And she went missing not long after. So that took precedent. But the mass of most things are men. Men have the most records. Most patents, etc etc.

I’m embarrassed to say I know how # 8 feels… Back in 2003 I had to fly to Nairobi Kenya from Southern California, via a first 12 hour flight to Europe then immediately continued on to a very very smelly 10 hour flight to Nairobi.

🤣😂😅😆
You don't realize just how big those winglets are at the tip of the wings until you get some crazed lunatic trying to shimmy up one!
Hi I love your vids
The military plane was doing an exercise for an air show it was done on purpose. Furthermore the incident with the U.S coast guard helicopter was caused by a micro burst causing the main rotor to lose effectiveness and caused the helicopter to drop toward the ocean u can tell by how much pitch and power was added as it dropped
Been there, done that. Scary times when you have your nose attitude and airspeed set for maximum rate of climb and you are pulling max continuous power but you are still falling out of the sky.
In other news, following the flying herring attack on a passenger jet the ISS was pummeled by a pair of irate sticklebacks earlier today. No astronauts were injured.
NEVER anger sticklebacks... those astronauts were lucky
Herrings? You mean herons?
So you heard that, too? Still, it was more jarring (even as an American) to hear how he pronounced Brisbane.
I thought I heard that too!
I have heard of flying fish, but pretty sure Herrings aren’t one of them
@@DrivermanO, you did. I rolled it back and he definitely said herrings. The fishermen in Killybegs Ireland would be very surprised that the fish that don’t make it into their nets are flying themselves to Manchester to sacrifice themselves in jet engines.
It's impossible to open up an airplane door at cruising altitude. The strength of every passenger aboard that plane could not open that door. The pressures outside the fuselage or air frame are incredible. So when he says, imagine if he opened the door at cruising altitude? Well I can't imagine it. Because it's impossible!
What about EAST RUSSIA XD its WEST.. the videos of that channel are just bad and full of fake news
May God bless the COAST GUARD, we don’t appreciate them enough ❤❤
🚀 This video is beyond incredible, wow!
Thanks for making me scared of plane
Dude the australian plane going near buildings we do that as a festival
Please explain to me how dust entering the cockpit could ever mess with the electrical equipment?
Have no idea
There is no way for the dust to enter the airplane. Once doors are closed, all air comes in via the air conditioning units, which contain filters.
Great, only 6 unskippable ads 🙄
Thank you, Yes,very enjoied this video.
LOL. There was no cry of "9 11" in Australia. Those numbers are back to front from how we say them (9 11 here is the 9th of November).
We knew it was a RAAF display due to it taking place at River Fire (an annual event). The RAAF always have jets fly over and do a "dump and burn"....this time, they added something bigger and more exciting.
7:20 bank angle was too high. He basicly stalled the plane with his wings almost 90 degrees turned. That means the plane does not have any lift, and drops to the ground. Being so low, the plane did not have any time to get speed back up. You can hear the engine roar on the last second before impact. The pilot tried to increase airspeed to actually get lift under the wings after leveling the plane again, but yeah. Planes drop fast... I can tell you that.
I salute pilots! Even when flying in normal weather, I find them exceptional!
At cruising altitude it is physically impossible to open emergency doors because of the pressure 😂
No, the opposite is true. There is a law of fluid dynamics known as the Bernoulli Principle that states as the velocity of a fluid increases, its pressure decreases. Air is a fluid and behaves in this way. If it did not airplanes would not fly and carburetors would not work. Moving air on the skin of the airplane has lower pressure than air inside the cabin. Now if you go up to the kinds of altitudes most airliners use, the air is very thin and the outside static pressure is very low (I'm a pilot and we live and die on what is known as "density altitude:). At altitude the cabin is pressurized so people have air to breathe. Outside the cabin the air is very thin and pressure is low. If you unlatch that door at altitude it will be ripped out of the airplane and there will be an explosive decompression that sucks much of the contents of the cabin including the passengers right out the door.
13:29 - I swear you can hear that guy's head hit the tarmac when he falls!
"ramp" nor tarmac. The term "tarmac" simply doesn't exist at an aiport.
Incredible that the plane is still flying perfectly while on one engine !! 2:02
Planes can fly with a full engine gone. It wont be the best flight but yeah it’s doable.
@@TheRealYashNotFake Yes, I ve read about that. I guess what I find incredible is that it still climbing on just that one good engine.
Yep plane engines are designed to have enough power to take-off with just one. Having two engines is really just a redundancy, cause if you only have one and it fails... well... need I say more.
They can all do that obviously. Plus this is a 757 which has the best thrust to weight ratio of all
“Scariest aviation moments!”
I guess that includes a guy standing on a wing, and learning the history of Gyroplanes
lol the first clip with the 757 from Manchester did make me laugh, the audio states the the damage to the engine was caused by herrings lol
Haven't you heard of flying fish!
As an Indonesian, Number 2 scared my soul the heck out of me.
Grew up in Brisbane. That was one of the rehearsals for the RAAF to attend Riverfire. It happens every year. Everyone was notified ahead of it, that’s why they were filming. No one ever complained or compared it to 9/11. Please stop spreading misinformation about my country.
Noone should because - in Birsbane, there is real plane flying as you said every year, while 711, it was TV stunt. No planes involved at all. Unless someone live in Cartoon Network. I guess we could expect simmilar result if something bad happen as when B25 hit the Empire State Building.
Thanks Jessica.👍👍👍
I watched riverfire with that exact plane
I think it was stupid trying to take off in a dust storm. They could've waited for the dust storm to pass.
Sand can damage aircraft engines just as much as volcanic ash and any other foreign object debris on a runway.
The stunt plane stalled because of low speed
Bro was thinking of 9/11 but change his mind in the last second.
"A pair of herrings" 🤣🤣
This collection really bites!
😮 some of these video clips give you the sense that things could have gotten a lot worse than they were!😮
If U say bris-bane again like that no wrong it's bris-bin 👍
It's always dicey when words are pronounced unintuitively, but yeah, I grew up hearing it as Bris-bin, even. I guess when you somehow never hear it pronounced correctly, you say it how you heard. I once heard someone pronounce Yosemite National Park like Yo-seh-might, which definitely made my body implode.
Cool video but the title is really overhyped considering that a large number of plane accidents have been caught on video that were way more terrifying, including the Air France Concorde crash, National Airlines 102 crash (Boeing 747 cargo plane crashing soon after takeoff in Afghanistan), the Tu-144 crashing at a Paris Airshow in 1973, Air France F296Q (brand new A320 full of passengers crashed after pilots decided to perform a stunt at an airshow), TransAsia Airways 235 (ATR72 crashes into bridge in Taiwan) - to list only a few of the most harrowing ones!
"Lanza-roh-tay", "a pair of herrings"?!? 😂 WTF? 🤣
1:57 Yeah, the fire coming from the engine isn't due to "roasting herrings" either. A herring is a fish, not a bird. Was it herons?
Number 10. Not birds, it's a compressor stall. There's a big difference.
Number 8. Correct up until it said it could possibly rip the plane apart. It wouldn't, it would put more stress on the structure, potentially causing more damage but not rip apart
Number 7. He did not lose control. The most likely scenario is he stalled, seeing his low speed and bank angle
Number1 it's not any less visibility than fog. I would be worried if i was being told by ATC how to fly. Have you ever heard of instruments. Pilots use those to help fly.
A pairvof Herrings?😂 damn flying fish
Oh Briz-bane, you've done it agane
06:28 was lowkey wholesome though- all those people immediately rushed to help.
The guy actually opened the door on the airplane.
Naaahh... beyond incredible.
Rip all people
Herrings?????? (Fish) Herons large bird! but grilled Herring is delicious!
The military plane in Australia it's a C 17 global marster and this is normal it's an Avent that happens in Brisbane Queensland Australia every year it's called river fire and that is a pre planned route so it didn't all most crash
I wasn't aware that "herrings" could fly. . .
Bro was gonna create 10/12
Did he say a pair of "herrings" flew in the engine???? Two large ones !!!😂😂😂😂
Hope he meant Herring gulls
8:19 man, he shoulda used his hazards, you’ve got em for a reason!😂💀💀
15:55 That sandstorm maybe didn't stop that dumb pilot. But all 4 engines has now to be detailed checked, and probably have to be swapped completely.^^ Well done, Mr. pilot.^^ I guess he isn't flying anymore.^^ A sandstorm is not lasting for hours. Cannot understand why the tower is allowing aircrafts to take off while the storm. Especially an A380. Unbelievable. Such a treatment without any respect to such a great new aircraft. That Airline and that pilot should fly Cessnas from now on.^^
What on earth are you on about? The engines are literally built for that. Before you go talking about things you don't know about actually go and research about the design of the a380 Rolls-Royce Trent 900 (A380-841/-842) Engines. If I could look up the name, I think you could do some research as well.
@@slushyplane I am an aircraft technician and by all respect, aircraft engines are build LITERALLY just for running in sandstorms? Didn't knew that, dude.^^
For sure the engine withdraw such things, but in any case, the lifetime of the engine is DEFINITELY got shortened. And definitely an Engine Borescope Inspection will follow. In the maintenance we are doing a lot of checks, and this one is highly recommended. Cause we have to guarantee the passengers and the crews life. Like after a bird strike, the engine has to be detailed checked, and also engines are build to withstand bird strikes.
