Becki: I hope I don’t get sick.
Becki (10 minutes later): Is it ok if I stick my feet out?
Motion sickness medication is a dream 80% of the time 😂
@@BeckiandChris interesting question: Can you fly yourself if you have to take motion sickness meds? I haven’t even considered learning to fly because I’ve always been really susceptible to motion sickness. I rarely take meds for it while on a medium sized plane, but landings in mountain regions or coach rides on mountain roads are really rough for me (guess where I live, surrounded by mountains 😂)
Lilly Schwartz usually not, but it is often much better when you are in control of the aircraft. You can also become acclimated to it
Chris was happier and spoke faster than my 3 year old son, when he's trying to convince me chocolate is a good choice
It is a good choice
@@jamesburke5709 so it seems every time 😂
@@fNatyk of course not 😂 but when it's 8am and your 3 year old suggests it would be a good idea for breakfast......it could be seen as not a good choice 🤣
😂😂
Absolutely unreal. Those shots are amazing! There's peter Mckinnon's Bucket shot and then there's Becki and Chris' random weekend once in a lifetime restricted airspace flying shots. WAOW Absolutely fantastic. Bravo bravo.
To have that thought that "Hey, the airspace is empty, I wonder if I can get approval?" Great job Becki and Chris!
“They’re just blowing away... like little sausages”
That made me laugh so much!
The laugh is the best from chris
So genuine!
I love the fact that you guys post on the weekends when almost no one else does, gives me something new to look forward at the weekends.
And by getting AWESOME 'footage', you mean Becki hanging her bare feet out the door low level over Niagara Falls; I mean, sure, lots of people have video of the falls from behind the window inside helicopters, but I seriously doubt ANYONE else has shots like that EVER. Beautiful, AMAZING flight and THANKS to the FAA for authorizing: Brilliant!
The anticipation, the stress, the maniacal laughter, the banger shots, and the ultimate payoff. One for the ages.
I legit said “OMG” when you guys were down low. That was so awesome! Also, your footage and shots look amazing, Becky. You rocked it 🔥
Thanks dude much appreciated!
When your wife knows how to enter a squawk code.
She can set the altimeter too 😏
-C
I saw that too. How soon does she learn to fly? 😎
I legit almost cried watching this. Absolutely incredible.
chris narrating his plan during intro makes me excited 😂😂
8:30 "The American border comes really close here" can confirm, I was at that overlook of Horseshoe Falls (on the American side) and I got a "Welcome to Canada" text from my carrier because my phone had connected to Canadian cell towers
Ironically when you're on the Canadian side it thinks you're in the US
I'm with Becki, we can see that you were as happy as a child on Christmas morning, when you are REALLY happy it shows. I was smiling as much as you just to see you doing what you love. I'm happy for you Chris, sorry for the pressure Becki.
You gotta risk it for the biscuit. Great shots. I was all smiles cause of how stoked and happy Chris was.
I just rewatched this because I wanted to see it again. The fact that this has only 74k views is amazing to me. Deserves more.
That laugh during the flight is all I need! SO GENUINE.
Hearing Chris’s laughter of joy was awesome 😂🙌🏼. Definitely a great experience for you both! 🙌🏼
“Who’s gonna try this at home?” 😂
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 to the rescue .....
Flight simulator..
I TOTALLY would :-)
@@junrenong8576 That's for pansies. I'm playing Ace Combat
Whoever's got a helicopter too...!
A well deserved victory after all the hard work out on the frontlines! Both of you deserve a happy/exciting moment like this 😎
Guys, this gave me goose bumps. I love the attitude of taking advantage of the downside of tours being cancelled in order to legally fly in a beautiful place. Good on you guys, that was amazing.
Proof that all you have to do in life is ask. You guys are so awesome!
If you don't ask, people can't say yes!!! I have a temporary studio space bc even though I couldn't afford a space yet, I asked a property owner of an empty building for access, and she has let me use it for the last 3 months for free. The anxiety of 'asking' is always worth it. Completely stoked for you, Chris!!! Sorry, Becki, for having to risk even more motion sickness ;)
Chris' smile in the whole video!!! You can tell how happy he was.
This is an absolute masterclass in knowing what it takes to get a job done because you have put in the time before the moment arrived! So glad y’all got to make this video.
Your excitement is infectious. What a joy to see people who love what they do, doing what they love.
My wife and I visited Niagara Falls today and just rewatched this video for perspective. Outstanding!!!
A guy from Europe I seen many picture from Niagara Falls. I was like okay... not bad. But never felt overhelmed or satisfied... AFTER WATCHED YOUR VIDEO!! Damn... This placed in a whole new atmosphere. I didn't know it is soo big. And from above it is pff... amazing. Incredible!
And Chris smiling is :)))) So happy to see he is happy and you Becki happy because Chris is happy. :))
I dare anyone to watch this and be sad. You can't help but smile ear to ear with Chris. Great Video!
I couldn't stop smiling either, amazing opportunity and wonderful shots!
The way he was laughing lol thats a real laugh !
Don't think I've ever seen someone GENUINELY this excited on video, I was even excited and nervous! Great work!
That was honestly amazing, I got goosebumps watching that, congratulations, the both of you! I wondered if the photos were downloadable or if I could purchase one or two? I’ve been watching your vlogs for a while mainly because I love Aviation, photography and videography also. I love watching the journey you’re taking together. Keep up the good work, I always look forward to what you guys are going to post next. Thank you
Having the same feeling (former aviation pro), and could share your thoughts as if mine. 👏😀
Looks like there are three of us with similar passions
That shot when you pass the falls at eye-level height gave me goosebumps! Epic little story. Loved it!
Really, really good film! Footage was amazing and the story was better.
Flown over Niagra dozens of times in a CL65. We take off from KBUF and request to climb over the falls. Never though,,,, were we THAT LOW!!! WOW! What an experience! This is something truly special. Thanks for sharing your experience with us! 🙂
Without a shadow of doubt, this has been my most enjoyable episode this year. Real feel good happy episode.
The juxtaposition of emotions in the Falcon was palpable at times.
Priceless footage in that 30 minute window.😀
I live about 10 minutes away from Niagara Falls, work EMS in Buffalo and Niagara Falls, NY and of all the times I’ve been to the falls, I’ve never seen it at an angle like this. Amazing shots, and congrats on having the opportunity of a lifetime to have the air to yourselves and get to have a shoot like this!
Best flight ever Chris👌Great shots Becki 👏
Chris - “Don’t try this at home” Becki - “Who’s going to try this at home?” 😂😂😂
You both seemed like kids in an amusement park... with unlimited time, unlimited candies, unlimited carousels and roller-costers tickets.
I know that feeling (been through it, flying above an active volcano), and can understand what's happening inside of you. Then, even if I couldn't... it shows !
And... now we know you're nothing but two old teenagers who came across one another for the better. 👏😂
Notice in minute 5 on the gopro where the image is sort of warping together through stitching is SOOOOOO trippy. i am re-watching this on a big ass screen over and over THIS IS SICK!
You both look like a young kid just hit the jackpot of their favorite candy. Looks so cool thats something you will never forget.
Chris is giddy like a school girl. Awesome shots Becky. Truely a once in a lifetime opportunity and it was great to see it.
Living 3 hours from there that is a great view that I have never seen.
That was too cool. Can’t believe The Man all the way up to DC agreed to the flight! Congratulations and thanks for sharing the trip!
Your joy and happiness is infectious. My jaw is hurting from smiling so much
Is it odd that this video makes me cry? 😂 I’M SO HAPPY FOR Y’ALL! BECKI YOUR SHOTS ARE BEAUTIFUL! THE FOOTAGE IS BEAUTIFUL! CHRIS IS SUPER HAPPY.
No one more deserving then a doctor fighting covid getting the chance to do something most people wouldn't get to do. Thank You for this; it's beautiful and the excitement in Chris's voice shows how special it was. The shots are 2nd to that.
I was genuinely grinning along, seeing Chris be so dopey happy about this ! What an opportunity... And Becki, YOU GOT THE SHOTS !!! So awesome.
I usually watch your videos on a 50" 4k TV and I'm SO upset that I'm traveling right now and had to watch on my laptop. Definitely rewatching this one when I get home. Amazing opportunity, congrats!
The excitement is contagious.
The little sausages and that contagious smile at the end was EVERYTHING! Thanks for bringing us all along, so cool from start to finish!
I was so happy knowing that you all were so happy doing this! SO SWEET!
Love these videos. As a buffalo local, it is so fun to see places I am familiar with from this perspective. This is a great one!
You guys CRUSHED it!! That was absolutely amazing. Nice work you guys. Becki you don’t need to be stressed. You did amazing.
Thanks Misha! Took a bit of planning but definitely worth it.
Becki and Chris ya for sure. Sometimes those are the most fun. The flights you put the most amount of work into.
Frickin amazing! I haven't seen anyone smiling so much as Chris in months and it made me smile! 😍
Seriously got chills at the end of that vid due to the joy in Chris’s voice. Pure Joy there and so much fun to watch the two of you on this flight. Becki those stills are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing this with us. I lived in Syracuse and the surrounding area for 2 to 3 years and never made it there. Wow, that was a fantastic tour. 🙏🔥❤️
Wow! Wow! Wow! Just amazing! Way to take advantage of the current situation! Also what perfect timing with the weather! I loved that Becki stuck her feet out! Great flying and camera work! You guys are awesome!
Sooo good ... beautiful shots ... great job guys!
Your blogs are precious. Whenever I see you pop up in my subscriptions I just get all the warm feelings, you are awesome
This was the most epic flight. Not sure if Cold Island flight footage is better or not. Becki, you nailed it. Chris excellent flying skills.
So good! Love how excited and happy Chris was, dream come true im sure. Well done guys thanks for taking us along. Oh and safe to say Becki you got the shot!
Chris is like an excited child while Becki is a mom worried about taking pictures. I love this video HAHAHA
Yeah Becky is the worried mom with the filthy mouth.
Wow! Just wow! That was amazing seeing the falls that way. Loved the shot with Becky's feet hanging out
Incredible
This video gave me life! Seeing Chris’ excitement really boosted my mood this morning!
Wow, amazing opportunity and great shots! Thanks for sharing!
This is probably one of the best RUclips videos I’ve ever watched, this alone has made me a true fan of you guys. Your awesome thank you for the great content.
It's so good to see Chris smile like this! Man he was really happy! Lots of respect for becki for flying without a door and even sticking her little sausages (lol) out of the heli. I got nervous by just looking at it. AMAZING photos & videos and what a great idea!!!
That's FREAKING AWESOME!!!
got permission from D.C. and Ottawa to fly through the great falls! incredible!
This. Was. Everything. 😎 Over and out.
Awesome! 11:20 I had that same smile the last time I flew in an ultralight plane or in my paraglider.
Love this video guys, amazing camera job Becki!
Thanks for sharing these amazing images with us. Very cool.
That was amazing. Such a special flight. Happy for you guys!
Good for you both. Great Shots. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for including Chris' manic, excited laughter as you flew by the falls, it put a giant smile on face.
Congratulations and this is soooo cool. Thank you to you both and ATC and the FAA.
Chris' joy is absolutely infectious!! This is pure bliss. Thank you for sharing guys!
fricking awesome vid. thanks for bringing us all along. such a wonderful video and an amazing experience.
That was fan-freaking-tastic! With everything shut down, there are a lot of opportunities to do some unusual things. I'wo glad this came to mind for you (I guess owning a helicopter, of course you would think of this)! The footage, the giggling, the feet in the air- all gold!
Looks amazing!
This was an awesome story and video and I enjoyed every second of it. Keep it up!
Kudos to Chris for being able to talk and casually plug another video and point it while piloting.....hahahah
Them laughters were so genuine! Made me feel happy too!
My little heart grew ten sizes watching y'all and this AMAZE BallZ once in a million life-times experience!! Thank you for sharing!!!
What a great video! Some of those pictures and shots were amazing!!
I grew up in Niagara Falls Canada, this video got me a little home sick because I now live in Sydney Australia. I do still have family there so when I come back to Canada for a visit, I make my way to the Falls.... Great video
Becki and Chris that was AWESOME!! I am going to watch this multiple times!! Thank you for sharing your adventure! Wow!!!
Is there a word to describe how AWESOME this is! Super footage Becki! Let 'er dangle Chris!
Incredible footage, thank you for making this 🙏
Awesome! Love the grind to make it happen - see a chance and just go for it. Amazing
I've got actual CHILLS!! Absolutely incredible, congratulations on this feat and thank you for sharing it with us!
Pure, genuine excitement. Love it! Amazing shots!!!!
Don’t normally comment but loved how super stoked you were to do it! Made me smile at you smiling. Such a cool thing to do.
This is brilliant, love your enthusiasm Chris. I totally get the pressure you felt Becki, you both did awesome. Much love from Australia, stay safe.
Awe man! That happiness is contagious. Brought back shared memories with my loved ones.
That’s in.SANE! Totally appreciate the amount of planning that must have gone into this but so amazingly worth it for something you will never forget. So excited just watching. Thanks for sharing!
I was grinning from ear to ear right there with Chris!! Absolutely fantastic job guys.
So excited for you guys, what an amazing experience for sure .....and Becki, your shots were phenomenal
Unbelievable !!! Great footage and superb photos. So happy for you !
