Pilot Attacks Angry Passenger - LA to Vegas | TV vs Reality
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 май 2021
- A TV series that ran for one season that almost every flight and cabin crew that I know loved was LA to Vegas, this is episode one of the series where the pilot ends up coming out of the flight deck to deal with an angry passenger.

What I love about TV airplanes is how tall the celings are and how wide the isles are.
Large wide-bodies like the b777 have a very high ceiling but you are correct, smaller aircraft like the a320 and b737 are super cramped
Unlike reality haha
I wish I could fly in a TV airplane lol
@@gregorymazulli4854 that’s one of the upsides to being short. I’ve been a passenger in an a320 lots of times. I can more or less stand fully upright even next to the window… depending on how close together the seating rows are.
Oh yeah tell me about it I managed to get myself invited onto the flight deck of a 737 after a flight and I barely fit into it I nearly bumped my head on the overhead panel
A bad dad joke? As I dad, I can say with 110% certainty, this is not possible.
Well as long as you’re enjoying it
@@74gear Absolutely, if my kid doesn't find it funny, that's his problem 😂
A paradox:
The worse a dad joke is, the better it is. And two places to tie up the boat.
The only bad dad joke is a good joke, therefore, NOT DAD.
I remember as a 10 year old or so, in the 1980's. My family and I were five of only 20 or so passengers on a 747 into Chicago. We were allowed to explore the whole plane including the cockpit, talked to the whole flight crew. It was surreal.
What's the funniest announcement you've heard? For me:
Pilot (during turbulence): "Sorry about the bumpy ride folks, looks like Santa got a little off course."
we'll get there when we get there, quit asking! (i was in the RAF)
My favorite was from United Arlines (btw, its the only time I’ve ever heard one of it, and also I dont remember what they said so): Seems like Alpha is taking our position, we’ll have to wait
@Silver Eagle hahaha
I had a women pilot and stand up comedian. We got stranded for awhile and she started a routine! She had us cracking up! We all clapped and cheered her on! I was lucky to get her again (to Hawaii) and she did a few shorts jokes introducing the hostesses… and her landings where great 👍.
When Kelsey let's you know he flies international because of the "perks," but then he reminds you he flies cargo. __
well, he did once say that he has flown horses in the past. So...
a comment i didn't understand until i got to that part of the video ;D what's in the cargo, sir?
The best part about this is seeing grown-up Freddie Benson
I remember waiting for my flight and saw a pilot at the airport. He looked a bit goofy like he just woken up. Turns out, he was the captain of my flight and walked around the cabin before departure. A very friendly man and very articulate in his in flight announcements. After landing he stood by the door and bid farewell, I give him a big thank you. Don’t judge a book by its cover, and have faith in your pilots.
I heard a (possibly apocryphal) tale of an Ward Air flight in which the captain (or FO) said "If you enjoyed this flight, please tell everyone that you flew Ward Air. If you didn't enjoy it, please tell them that you flew Air Canada"
The sense of humor fits with WardAir but it might be apocryphal because I flew WardAir several times back in the 80s and can't imagine anyone not enjoying a flight on that airline. Seriously. Great food on actual china, roomy seats and the upstairs of the 747s I flew on was a lounge! The crazy thing is that my parents kept the details of those trips (to Hawaii) in a scrapbook and adjusted for inflation the price we paid wasn't much more than current day cattle-class.
@@interfrastically Yes, it may well be apocryphal. I flew both Ward Air and Air Canada a few times between London and Toronto, and both were pretty good, particularly WardAir. They both put BA to shame.
During that period, I was flying Air Canada almost weekly from Toronto to Halifax return... The day after Canadian Airlines bought Ward Air, the service on the Air Canada flight plummeted. Choice of hot meal, free glass of wine, etc. all vanished immediately and never returned...
@@stephenwild2058 Did you tell the company?
I used to go to a particular KFC. One day I found service had deteriorated sharply. Not the servers, what you could get. (Sorry I don't remember precisely what it was that bothered me, but it was maybe 40 years ago!)
I wrote a customer card ending "You might think people don't notice, but we do."
The next time I went in, it was back to normal.
I see Freddy is still dealing with the damage from his mom.
/if you know, you know.
Looking forward to the reboot
I'm surprised his mom would let him fly given he's not even allowed scissors😂
Hahaha
I was like “ wai- that’s him right”
When I was fourteen years old, my parents and I moved from the U.S. to the North of England-my father had been appointed managing director of a joint U.S./British manufacturing venture.
My father was already living in England, and my mother and I were flying a BOAC 707-420 from New York to Glasgow and on to Manchester to join him, and we were seated in the first-class compartment along with one other passenger. After dinner and several drinks, the first officer left the flight deck, took a seat in the rear of the first-class cabin, loosened his tie, lay his head back, and apparently went to sleep. Moments later, the flight attendant approached me and said, "The captain requests your presence on the flight deck."
Befuddled, I followed her to the flight deck where the captain, flight engineer, and navigator greeted me, and I was directed to sit in the first officer's seat. The captain began explaining many of the controls to me, and I was even allowed to take the yoke and make some very minor adjustments. (I suspect the captain was actually making the adjustments.) My mother was also invited to the flight deck where the navigator showed her how to shoot stars with the plane's sextant.
I remained in the first officer's seat until we reached the islands off the coast of Scotland when the first officer returned to prepare for landing in Glasgow. I've flown extensively since then, both domestically and internationally, but only once have I again been invited to the flight deck, to take photos of Mont Blanc on a flight from Paris to Firenze, which was pre-911.
Great story!
It's a shame the world can't be allowed to remain simple.
This reminds me of that Russian flight where a very young boy ( I think it was the captains son) basically flew the plane into the ground because nobody realised he had inadvertently disconnected the auto pilot.
@@slacko1971 oh god, if that’s the story I’m thinking of, that was horrifying.
Real cool.
@@slacko1971 I’ve heard that story and it’s the reason that nowadays when the autopilot gets disconnected, a rather loud alarm goes off. To a non pilot or someone who doesn’t know, it really does sound scary. Truthfully I don’t know why most warnings are spoken by the flight deck computer “too low, terrain, pull up” but the autopilot disconnect just woop woop woops at the pilots.
I never knew I want to see Freddie Benson from Icarly acting tough and getting taken down on a plane 😂
The captain is only a SLIGHTLY exaggerated version of the characters I dealt with working line service at our local airport!
This was a great show, and I wish it could have kept going!
can i just say as a person that is fucking terrified to fly, i love when my captain speaks frequently on the radio, especially in turbulence like how hard is it to just calm our nerves , come on, but i would aslo like to say that watching your videos has helped calm a lot of my fear
This show is like a live-action season of Archer.
The reason he wasn't wearing a sock was because the attendant had taken it in a previous scene.
Exactly!
Yep lol, I thought that was a funny detail to keep consistent!
Continuity, people! Continuity!
I thought it was because he was trying to get laid with that one passenger
I was on a Delta flight once when we were over the grand canyon the pilot started banking right and left and telling people about what they were seeing below. It was cool and he seemed to really like doing that.
I think these 'versus reality' ones are my favourites, along with the mean comments, which are hilarious, especially the replies.
Mean comments can be funny because it reveals the commenters stupidity
Here after all aviation movies must be made with Kelsey in the mind
Fuel in the wings!
I would love to see him and Ward Carrol (retired F-14 pilot) do a video together on each other's channel.
You know it if ATC tells a crew they are "cleared for take-off, and remember to keep the blue side up."
I just came across your channel and have binge watched so many videos. I am a nervous flyer and you have actually put my mind at ease. I have only been on one flight that was particularly scary, a plane taxied onto the runway as we were coming in and the pilot aborted the landing. My family, on the other hand, were on the virgin plane from Gatwick to Orlando that had to make an emergency landing. For once, I wasn't jealous that I wasn't able to go on holiday! Anyway, thank you for such entertaining videos, I have subscribed!
Time to roam about in the house going "coming up" in a cool voice.
I like to do this at least once a day, usually on a Zoom call
yep :D
Or “ let’s get into it “
😆 here I thought I was all by myself!! Too funny 😄
It's also what he says when he's having a one night stand and the woman is taking off her clothes 🍆
Cars that are in tv/movies have their headrest removed so they can get better camera angles of the actors faces from behind. I assume its the same reason here.
Actor: "...Who flies international, has sex all the time with the passangers"
Kelsy: "And now you know why I fly international"
Hahaha im dead 😂
I have sex-excess so I would recognize it;
Kelsy does not have that I would see it instantly;
Cargo. Yep.
Now those are the cool pilots
@@beverlyweber4122 didn't he in some video mention, that he also flew horses?
@@Zwangsworkaholic Ruh-roh! Hold on there, Trigger!
Not gonna lie, the knock the door to turn on the fasten seatbelt thing made me chuckle.
Very good one Kelsey. I happily sign the petition for a "TV vs Reality" of every episode of this series, if possible.
I'm sad I've never heard of this show and that it only lasted one season on a channel I've never heard of.
Hey kelsey, great job trying to keep a straight face during the " DONT COCKPIT BLOCK ME " part. Lololol. But can almost read your mind by your facial expression. Love your videos ,keep up the great work . From a fan a few minutes from Bangor international airport, Bangor , Maine. Keep up the great work.
Kelsey, I really liked when you showed the hotel view and we got to guess where it was, and then you would reveal it at the end. Could you bring it back?
I second this.
Yeah, just seeing the different views for a quick second is a unique and interesting idea
PLZ
I miss this show. There were so many “insider jokes” for crew to laugh at…they had to have flight crew on their writing staff.
My dad and I flew from Los Angeles to Chicago back in the late 50’s. I was about 4 years old. The stew gave me her wings pin, took me to the cockpit to meet the crew, and gave me gum to chew for popping my ears. I will never forget it. 😍.
That kind of stuff still happened in the 90s. Basically how I got such a fan of aviation. I even remember the pilots telling me about radials "it's like lots of radio stations we can tune into to find out where we are"
That's so cool, thanks for sharing
The cabin crew were nearly as sweet to me as a 7 year old in 87... went to the cockpit, didn't understand "autopilot". The gum didn't work and I missed out on the wings!
It was most definitely a propeller. Late ‘50’s. Lol, I remember the propeller because at one time, while watching it in the blinking light (at night), I was sure it was not turning. Ha, that’s when the stew and I became friends 😃.
"This is Captain Dave time!". 😆😆😆 Kelsey, ya gotta use that line on your next flight with passengers.
Finding myself genuinely liking some of this show. Wish I had known it existed at the time!
"Some people love, LOVE using that radio"
Well, you see,
*Extroverts*
Pilot then does a 30 minute PA.
When you could fly with the cockpit door open, we had a captain that used to put up a rear view mirror to "watch what was going in the back". Fun days as a FA on the Saab 2000.
Saab 2000? What airline was that?
@@buckmurdock2500 Might have been Pen Air
@@buckmurdock2500 Crossair
I always appreciated the captains who would announce landmarks we were flying over. For instance, the view of the Grand Canyon from 6.5 miles up is really something; It both emphasizes its size and the height at which you are travelling, making it also look like a tiny model.
Absolutely one of your top three broadcasts Kelsey - so many laughable moments, especially the “it’s why I fly international..” moment. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I spent all night binging your channel and I was just about to take a nap and you dropped this. I guess I can stave off a nap for another hour. I absolutely love your content. Everywhere you land is absolutely beautiful. You're super cool! Please keep flying, I'm convinced you're the best of the best and I'd feel comfortable flying with you
How come I never knew I had to PULL the oxygen thing even though I ALWAYS pay attention to the flight attendants 🤔🤔🤔🤔
“And now you know why I fly international”. Classic!
When my wife and I where in therapy, durning a discussion about flying. The therapist asked my wife if she ever had the urge to grab the stick. I told her “that yoke’s on you”.
Your "Membership Video" is the best...great job, Kelsey! Keep up the great work...fan for life!
Never heard of the show but I now want to watch it
I put a link in the description hopefully you like it
Around the time of hurricane Irma I was in lga flying to Orlando a few days before it hit and our flight was delayed a few hours the pilot was actually sitting in the terminal with us he sat next to us for awhile just talking with us and handed out coffee cards it was the most humbling thing ever ❤️ I don’t think anyone on that flight was mad about the delay and it was over half empty because they saw him waiting with us too.
I’m glad your doing these videos, And it’s great to hear feedback from pilot’s and there thoughts and views, Specially taking the time to explain what’s happening and the corrections they need to take, Kodo’s to you!, This gives me confidence in flying with Pilots like you.
Best regards
Kelsey your videos are like an antidote to Air Crash Investigation, keep them coming.
Freudian slip? What’s really on your mind Kelsey? 18:33.
Muay Thai (moi tie) - a style of mixed martial arts.

In 1988 I was 7 years old, We were flying from Minneapolis (MSP) to Orlando (MCO) and in cruise I was invited to the flight deck to see the cockpit and was given a set of TWA gold wings! Ill never forget that and I still have the wings today!
Hey Kelsey, thanks for this. One of my personal faves, totally relatable to most of us knucklehead passengers.
Kelsey, you make some of the best aviation videos on RUclips. Thank you!!!!!!
Video compilation of all your bloopers please, Kelsey! 😃
Yes please Kelsey, let's get into THAT😎!
Kelsy my friend, you got my subscription and a big THANK YOU!!
My father was the guy that, for a period of time there, pretty much had sold most all of the Pratt & Whitney engines hanging off the wing of most international commercial aircraft. He and Al Haig were a real power duo when it came to opening up the opportunities for American jet engines to be sold to the Chinese airlines back in those early days. He was even on that first trans-continental flight of the 767. His best pals around the globe were all either airline CEO types from many international airlines, or high up international government officials that dealt directly with their airline purchases.
My father spent a good 50% of his working life in the air. I can tell you with great certainty that, if he were alive today, he would never miss one episode of your channel. No doubt in my mind. He would have loved it for sure!!
Now that I have written that opener, lol, I have to say that he was one amazing guy. Without bias, one of the most interesting people I have ever known and I am not the only person with that sentiment and can say that with all confidence. The real life stories this guy had to share from all he experienced in the airline industry alone with all its characters and with absolutely zero embellishments were totally amazing. Just an extraordinary yet ordinary guy and there wasn’t one person I could ever think of that didn’t immediately like the guy. Well, I can think of quite a few that didn’t like how good he was at selling jet engines, lol. But personally, the guy was a gem. It’s really funny that I can watch your channel and totally appreciate all the specific parts were I can clearly hear him chuckling. God I miss that dude. One of a kind for sure.
Thanks for a great channel that taps into those memories of him quite nicely. ❤️👍🏻😎👍🏻❤️
@74Gear thank you for pointing me at the direction of this show.. it was a hilarious 1st season, too bad they did not renew it, at least not as of yet. And also about your channel, keep up the good work! I really enjoy what you create.
Hi Kelsey, grandma Joanne here. This is so funny 🤣. I will have to pay more attention to the oxygen mask briefing when I fly again. Have a wonderful week!!
Hi grandma Joanne. You should appear on the show some day!
There is nothing sweeter than seeing a RUclipsr’s grandma commenting on their content. I hope he does a video with you someday and you can talk about him growing up to be a pilot.
Thanks for your great videos - I'm not a pilot but it's always really very interesting to see your videos :) Keep on the good work :)
Gotta love the Dice hanging in the cockpit. Haha
love your channel and your terrific personality!
Your comedy is getting a lot better Kelsey! 😁
Fun fact, the guy driving the boom lift at 9:08 is a coworker of mine. It was completely unintentional, so he was all happy to get a quick cameo.
That’s pretty cool this was such a funny show! Lucky guy to be a part of it
Now you have verify that he's six degrees from Kevin Bacon.
That's awesome lol
I loved this show. Thanks for this!!!
Another great vid.
Thx Kelsey!
*I actually remember the Lost Wages Pilot! I used to commute to L.A. a few times a month, so a couple of times a year, I'd take my wife along and we'd go spend the weekend at the Sands (R.I.P.). I remember hearing that more than once, but it was still funny as hell!*
Fluffy dice! Nice to see I'm not the only one that has them.
Nice. We’d love to see your fuzzy dice.
@@mj6962 I'm not sure if I'd want to see another persons fuzzy dice in any situation... I just don't swing that way
(Yes, this is just a joke)
It seems like every Pilot, Love's, and Flying J between Barstow and St. George sells them. If you do enough driving through the Southwest, at some point you've got to just give in and get a set of them.
Been missing you. Thanks for the video 📹 😀
Been listing to your videos past few days, great channel over all, you’ve got an easy to listen to voice and way of speaking and informative content even thought I’ll never actually use any of the information I learn here it’s still interesting. But I must say the best part about your channel is the length of the intro. Most people’s intros drone on and on before getting to the reason I clicked the video, so on behalf of every other impatient person out there thank you for not making me have to skip the first 4 minutes of your video and keep up the good work
I am amazed that this show didn't get renewed... one of my favorite of all times.... capt Dave is the best
Ditto - I loved this show
Sadly not all shows can be renewed due to budget constraints. Why is it so many of those we like? :(
I only had the oxygen masks deploy once, after smoke started wafting out of the A/C thingies overhead. They turned them off and back on a couple of times, but they kept wafting smoke.
Nobody panicked; in fact everything got really quiet, except for one little boy who said, "Fire, Mommy."
I was thinking, "No kidding."
I remember one FA went *running* from the back of the aircraft to the front with a fire extinguisher.
We had to keep the masks on until we got below 10,000 ft. We kept flying, though, towards our destination, rather than turn around or divert to some other airport -- maybe another 30 minutes? Not sure b/c "time" was kinda fuzzy during that episode! Seemed like forever!
There were so many extra "Red Coats" (customer service representatives) waiting when we deplaned. But everyone was being super quiet; saying prayers of thanks?! 😊🙏
It was decades ago; some man turned around and snapped a flash 📸 photo of all the oxygen masks hanging down as we deplaned. I always wanted a copy of that photo!
Never been so glad to have taken alprazolam (Xanax) before 🛫 takeoff! 😕🙄🥺 I'm not a white-knuckle flyer, but was feeling nervous that morning, so I popped one. WHEW!
Couldn't decide whether *never* to take that airline again, or *always* be sure to take it! Thanks, Mr. Pilot, whoever you were!!
I understand that. I’m not a white knuckle flyer but it does make me a little nervous. After awhile I figured out it’s mostly the lack of control-there’s nothing I can do to change the outcome of the situation combined with the knowledge that I’m trapped with no way out.
Awesome I'm going to check this show out thanks for the heads up!
First time watching these videos today, & after only halfway through the first one I subscribed! These are really cool & interesting. Keep them coming brother! Thanks.
That was great. The show is what we need in times like these; to be able to laugh at goofy stuff. Just like when the Reno 911 series shed laughter in policing.
Love Reno 911! And the Tacoma FD show for firefighters!
@@rosegroshek1218 exactly...forgot about Tacoma FD
Oh man, that "MUAY THAIII!!" takedown had me in stitches!
Thanks for providing great content. I just discovered your channel and am hooked!
This videos are my daily cure against boredom and flying nostalgia 😍
Love these videos. Kelsey, have you considered doing a video about the 1970 movie Airport?
I just flew to LAS and the captain said “lost wages”. 🤦🏻♂️
Oh man, I’ve never heard them say that! 😔
Thanks so much for introducing me to this show. I really enjoyed it. It has a Better off Ted vibe.
I appreciate you making the bed before recording an episode... very professional.
"Airplane", the best representation of how things really are on a plane.

Hi Kelsey, greetings from Australia. Great video as always.
Welp, I just binged La to Vegas. It was freaking hilarious!
Nothing more frustrating that when they leave the seatbelt sign on for an hour for meal service.
The fuzzy dice are a real thing too. . . . . also Altoids before taking the runway, so if we crash, our corpse will have fresh breath!. Pilot Rituals.
Very nice Kelsey, good stuff.
Yay! Love these!
My takeaway is when and if the O2 masks drop, that a 'firm' tug is required to pop the pin to start the flow...Thanks Kelsey.
Don't panick and pull too hard and break it or anything though lol. (Idk if that can actually happen but I've seen it in shows before 🤷♂️)
@@revenevan11 Understood. There's a difference between a gentle vs firm tug and a hard yank...
Kelsey, I think the whole marriage thing started on the 'Love Boat' back in the day. :)
I bought the season on Amazon after watching this, I love it!
Hey Kelsey I'm truly diggin the HUGE pair of fuzzies.. He chuckles!!!!
16:24 this is a really awkward parallel to draw, but if you lock your feet around someone's WAIST instead of their neck, you are completely unshakable and have your hands free to choke or gouge or god knows what else. I took down a lot of bigger and stronger opponents that way back when I was a Troubled Kid in a move I dubbed "The Barnacle".
The "Pull down" on the oxygen mask tube thing is REALLY BADLY explained in every safety brief.
1st its not explained that you need to do it to start the oxygen flow, and 2nd its un natural to do an action that seems like your trying to damage a piece of safety equipment thats going to keep you alive.
It's like saying to inflate the life vest, first bite it!
But not so hard you puncture it, just enough to start the inflation going :P
I like to think that the captain is deliberately not pulling it down hard enough because he knows once you start the flow, you can't stop it, and taking an apparent hit of O2 is mostly play-acting.
Trying to take that little pin off might be worse when you REALLY need it.
But the part about choosing which child you love more is perfectly clear. On every, single, flight.
Yes. Actually it's a first time I hear anything about pulling the mask to activate it. I always thought that the chemical reaction starts the same moment as mask drops down.
Great episode again, as always! Love it. Lol.
I always thank the Pilot and tell him what a great job he did if he comes out to say good bye to us. I also like it wen the pilot stands by the door saying hello to us along with the flight attendants when we are boarding.
Hey Kelsey i've been binging your videos for a week or so and i love everything you put up! Keep them coming please especially liked the one where you took that nervous flight attendant to up with the 2 seater :D
One question though. You keep emphatizing that you are a 747 pilot. Is there a "ladder" or order among professional pilots? Is a 747 pilot considered more skilled than lets say an A340 pilot? Is there more / harder training to go through?
I’m not a pilot but I can take an educated guess. Basically most of the commercial planes are smaller and have two engines instead of four. By comparison there are only a few 747s and they can only land at certain airports big enough to accommodate them due to how huge they are.
Therefore the 747 pilots are fewer in number than those that fly two engine airliners.
I was getting my hair cut at a place called scissors and scotch. Basically you get your haircut and get a free drink at a bar and the guy next to me said hey what do you do, I'm a pilot. I thought of this and said to myself yep its true they do have to tell everyone lol
Nice, Kelsey! I’m checking this show out now!
Hey Kelsey. Awesome work you got going on.
I have a structural analysis test tomorrow. But aviation is the life.
That captain reminds me of Archer!
"Learning Mai Thai to take down terrorists." So I need to learn how to fix a cocktail 🍹, or learn MUAY THAI to take down terrorists? 😂. Enjoyed the vid as always. 😉👍👍✌️
I'm glad someone picked up on that one xD
@@Skyried 👍👍😂
Great video dude, keep it up
"Pull hard on the oxygen mask to release the gas." No flight attendant have ever told me this !
