lol i can't tell you how worried i'd be if i heard a captain say "do the gears and all that shit"
Me, too. That sort of thing is NOT likely to end well, to say the least.
I'm russian and I saw another vid about this crash with all voice records in russian. That was much worse than translation here, you can 200% hear how drunk the captain was and 2nd pilot didn't know what to do at all
@@stormmanio1784 wow mate
@@stormmanio1784 I believe it. I feel sorry for tye rest of the crew and passengers. Memory Eternal.
@@stormmanio1784 I don't speak a word of Russian, and the captain sounds very, very drunk to me.
"What the f@ck are we doing?"
6 words you really don't want to hear in the cockpit of a plane!.
Right, Like how the f**k you don't know what you're doing?
I don't mean to laugh but BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
@@youngaj8754 it was the FO saying that, like wtf are you doing captain, your flipping the fucking plane over. Meanwhile the captains saying fuck, do what you have to do fly the plane. Then proceeds to fuck it all up.
@@KDill29 Spot on mate. The Captain just didn't seem to grasp the gravity of the situation. No pun intended.
The first officer was like take it and the captain said take what I can’t do it either😂
It's always upsetting to see an image of a plane inverted, imagining the absolute terror that the passengers and crew must feel when their whole world turns upside down... literally.
And in the middle of nowhere
Unconscious in five uh six seconds usually depending on the quickness of bank and the angle; but they seem like forever.
I recall the plane with locked elevator flap, and to test if they can descend the bolts came out fully and lost flap control,
turned inverted and parished..Think was Air Alaska flight..
Need better method of air travel where if something fails everyone does not die.
The powerless feeling of somebody failing while you count on them..
Flight MH370 IS REASON WHY I drive or sail. RIP trusting innocent numbers of souls who became just a number literally.
Yeah the Captain was drunk
@@aldenunion yes I believe it was Air Alaska you're thinking of. Flight 261 maybe? The jack screw failed I think. I agree with everything you said except in addition to having seen 20 seasons of Mayday: Air Disaster, I also binge watch Disasters at Sea too. So I'm not a big fan of sailing either lol
This kind of incident should never ever happen in a million years.
Truth is stranger than fiction.
I dont know which is worst. This one or another aeroflot flight where the captain allowed his son to play a pilot.
Are you kidding? You have no idea how many alcoholic pilots are up there.
I’m sure it happens quite a bit In Eastern Europe.
@@Gunsandjewels that's my favorite TFC video
''The fcuk are we doing?!''
Those words are even scarier than "Pull up pull up terrain terrain"
Those who accusing the pilot was the main reason for crash, U all can fkk off, the left engine caught on fire, theres ground witnesses... Its also because of lack of training, and lack thorough maintainance
Lol..
@@makaupurple8242 You serious? Did you listen to the same CVR as we all did? Im all for professional pilots feeling relaxed in the cockpit but the Captain wasnt relaxed, FOR FUCKS SAKE, HE WAS SHITFACED. An engine fire on a boeing 737 only miles away from the runway is 100 percent survivable. Neither pilot mentioned having any problems at all. Good day, troll.
The explicit sentence screamed by the F/O at 10:09 scared the salad out of me
@@makaupurple8242 troll spotted
Russian aircrashes from before the 2000s are such a wild thing. Planes crashing because pilots thought kids in the cockpit was a good idea, planes crashing because of drunk pilots, planes crashing because ATC decided to sleep, I mean what the hell? Human error is one thing, complete negligence is another.
What is the story of sleeping ATC? Didn't hear of that...
the break up of the Soviet Union and the complete chaos that followed in the 90ies can be attributed to all this. People just stopped caring, they lost all hope and more importantly there wasn't many places that could hold people accountable for their mistakes that cost people theirs lives. The Chechen wars are a perfect example of this. So many young soldiers and Chechen civilians died and suffered while a couple of corrupt shithead politicians got rich off the conflict. These accidents were bound to happen. Just remember the Russian president at the time was Boris Yeltsin, a drunkard that most people didn't respect and who just gave away parts government owned businesses to corrupt devils who just exploited everything and everyone to the maximum and used all that money to buy houses in the carribean and elsewhere while people in Russia were left to rot, pensioners that built up the country and worked so hard in their lives and were guaranteed a pension suddenly lost that pension which ended up being pocketed by corrupt officials that are still in office to this day. The worst part of it all is that nothing has changed between the United States and Russia. They still have a bunch of sanctions and still see Russia as an enemy almost even moreso that they did with the Soviet Union. We're living in pretty terrible times but people are just too distracted with media and technology to even notice or think for themselves any more.
let's not forget about the 2010 crash that led to the death of Polish president while on going visit to memorials of the massacre of Polish people in Russia
@@meNikkie hoping @TheFlightChannel create one
@Concerned Citizen this is a video on a plane crash in Russia. Stop attributing literally everything to American politics, nobody cares here! We are here to watch and learn what happened on this flight, not to hear you complain about what crazy things are happening in American government.
it's scary to know we trust people who could do this at anytime.
They can't, pilots are constantly monitored to make sure they have no mental or physical issues. This is an exception.
@@raku8391 What are you on!?
Tell that to the passengers of the Germanwings flight.
Impaired pilots are more common than you think. They're exhausted and some have mental health issues that they have to hide.
@@rust44 false, flights would be delayed if the entire flight crew didn't get enough sleep,
Luckily, most times they get caught in the terminal. Considering the past ten years, I think pilots have become WAY less trusted by airport staff/coworkers.
He sounds like he's about to fall asleep talking to air control. Scary.
He is both drunk and exhausted.
So drunk that he thought they were descending when in fact they were ascending 🤦
You can hear the inebriation in his voice. Cluckiñg disturbing.
He needs to be smoking weed. I would even snort cocaine and fly a plane. It’s easy
"The pilots described as very experienced and best in the company" wow, just wow. RIP innocent passengers.
Yeah, makes you think seriously, these are your "best"?? I'd hate to see your worst pilots..
I wouldn't fly in Aeroflot no matter needed or in a hurry. No wonder life expectancy in Russia is much lower than in other European countries!
I actually have been on many flights and love flying with my family as im only 12 so my parents ensure the pilots are the best of the best unlike these stupid drunk goners
@@Swaesyy How do they ensure it?
If these were the best they had I can only imagine how bad the worst flight crew is.
"Don't drive drunk"
Most importantly, don't fly a fricking airplane drunk
RIP the 82 passengers, 6 flight crew and the F/O
The F/O is also drunk lol
How can you tell they're drunk? Those Slavic languages sound like they're drunk either way. Lol
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 If drunker than usual I guess
*one might counter: **_were they flying_** the airplane, at all?*
@@trabbin8 their abusing the plane not piloting the plane
Poor 737
"These pilots are the best in the company." Well, then I got bad news...
The airline's PR nightmare about pilot sobriety makes the news even worse
Pilot is good man, can really hold his liquor.
Really knows how to put that fucker down, best at gear and shit.
If I was the FO, I’d be like “Hey, look 👈....... a spider!👀 Now give me the dang controls!”
Your comment made me laugh so hard my stomach was hurting. It made me smile too.🤣😬
😂😂
Or you can just take it over...
"Hey look... a spider" will broke the stereo cockpit violation rules
That because the sentence is not equivalent to flight and it is at a crucial stage of the flight(At that time of the incident was a landing)
Imagine how terrifying it would be in an inverting aircraft. That poor FO was killed by a drunk asshole captain.
I agree. Watch the video flight channel did about Aeroperu 603. I think that's it. I think it's titled, "crashing upside down in the ocean at night." It gives me chills just to think about dying that way. Terrifying.
you can tell the fo was tryhing his hardest..RIP
Another idiot captain getting everyone killed.
But how the hell did the fo not notice anything? I can't imagine that its so difficult to notice that the captain is drunk
The title has been exaggerated in an unnecessary click bait manner. Very clearly states at the end there was a presence of ethanol alcohol in his system - not that he was drunk or had a substantial amount of alcohol when he was operating the plane. It was pilot error but to say ‘drunk pilot crashed the plane’ is grossly misleading
This takes drinking and driving to a whole new level. RIP to those who died.
Maybe drinking and flying 🤔
Drink and Drive
and now Drink and Fly
what next? A person get drunk while controlling a ship and makes the ship sink
Drinking and driving = start button - shift to drive - press gas
Drinking and flying a 737 = plane walk around - APU start - check lists.........contact ATC - get clearance to taxi - check lists..........contact ATC - get clearance to take off - check lists...........take off - change freq - check lists........
@@Interdictiondeltawing yeah that’s what I exactly said
@@minivansareevil nahhh...let the FO did all that,the capt just sit in cockpit filling his checklist while sipping a vodka.
2:05 '....described as the best in the company'. Makes you wonder what the worst looks like at Aeroflot Nord 😂
"What the fu** are we doing"
The last understandable word.
At this moment his voice is sober
Not for russian...
@@TheZouil that was the first officer
The contrast between how the captain was talking to ATC and his first officer is startling. It seemed like 2 totally different people.
@Alexcis Winterpiss he means that the captain is changing his personality while talking to atc or while talking to the fo
Drunk. Jekyll and Hyde.
Agreed
I have never heard a crew cuss before.
@baltes yeah but thats not right. The captain and fo are equal when it comes to experience as a pilot. They are both qualified to fly the airplane alone
"How a Drunk Pilot Crashed-"
ENOUGH SAID
Welcome to Russia
I drink vodka a lot welcom to soviet union
they drink to much vodka
Why is your profile pic an airplane wing lol idk why that's so funny
not really, flying a plane is much easier than driving a car through traffic and there's also more people who can take control
I was on a flight last night where the flight was delayed because we were waiting on the pilots. When the captain made his announcement he apologized and said they had been delayed because they had just flown a very difficult flight from Cleveland..and he sounded absolutely exhausted...and this was a 9pm...it made me nervous to be honest
I was flying home from Hawaii, heading to LAX. The pilot was walking down the isles, greeting everyone. He was hammered. Just absolutely plastered. Red faced and sweating. We made it to LAX but I should have refused to fly and reported him.
Let me guess, Hawaiian Airlines? They are terrible.
@@helveeta Yup
Definitely. He might end up crashing another plane!!! It's not too late to report him!! You might just save other people lives in the future!!! Imagine how you will feel if you don't report him and something happens in a future flight. 🤔😒😭
Definitely report him now, at least. He is most likely still flying!! That’s terrifying that he was able to land a obviously intoxicated!!!
but I’m really glad you are alive wow
This guy gives such a real picture of the events. The way he narrates the story with those texts, does a better job then most of those RUclipsrs who add their expert opinions with vocals.
Yeah but I’m not on RUclips to read through the whole video 😭
@@yenh1144 Often his version of events are just that. I also don't like click-bait titles. His coverage of the Max was no more than a sales pitch for the bus.
This channel is good. But if you’re okay with a text-only format, Admiral Cloudberg is *easily* better than this.
@@therublixcube3052 I agree. The only videos on this channel that i like are the ones that contain ATC communications. The text only does nothing for me
Who narrated?
ATC knew something was up, props to him, he did all he could to try and save this flight
He did not, he should kill the captain first
maybe if the atc didnt get the aircraft to do a overhead flyby and just a straight in then maybe they could have landed safety
@@parabellum4224 how? Teleport in the cabin with a revolver and shoot the captain in the most American way? I'd watch that. Hollywood plsss
@@bandvitromania9642 Steven Seagal would save that plane
@@parabellum4224 yeah and crash it at that square in Moscow and then get himself evacuated by the US Army while police handcuffs Putin
I've seen this on Air Crash Investigations, but hearing the actual cockpit voice recording is absolutely stunning, in any sense of the word. Many thanks for providing that. I don't understand any Russian but that was one drunk-sounding captain! Slurring his words, not listening to or not understanding the ATC directions. And a first officer who didn't really know what he was doing. I used to work as a travel agent during the Soviet era. Aeroflot were nicknamed Aerogrot. Bad pilots, bad inflight service, and badly maintained aircraft. They have improved but...... this one is like a throw-back!
Also if you can hearing the captain voice make announcement at beginning of the flight(From Mayday Air crash Investigation), you can hear he is drunk by annouced:
“good evening… good morning”
This is what pilots will be like in the world of "Idiocracy".
"Do that flyin' Sh*t"
I'm gonna pilot a commercial plane with passengers. Let me take a few drinks to loosen up. -Captain
Imagine hearing drunken slurring over the intercom just before takeoff. 😨
Isn’t that the stupidest thing any pilot could say?
Ridiculous 🦁🦁☘️☘️✌️✌️
Few turns to 20
Approach greeted them with, "Good morning". The pilot started drinking the day before and that turned into night and then his flight. Probably was his routine.
My abiding memory of this is a passenger who texted her friend in London that she thought the captain was drunk based on the cabin announcements. She told her friend that she was scared.
I often sit in my chair and wonder what this whole ordeal must've been like for her.
I hope her spirit is smiling wherever it is.
Makes me feel so sorry for her. As if she felt what was coming. Terrible! May she rest in peace.
Yes, she should have walked off the plane and protested loudly so all the other passengers were made aware of the drunk captain, no way that plane should have left the ground with a drunk at the wheel.
Edit; I just realised (after reading Bradley Nelson's comment) she was going by his slurred cabin announcements mid flight, not on the ground.
@@kenoneill8783, she only realized it while they were in the air , hearing the pilot over the intercom. Unfortunately too late once they were in the air. I assume the co-pilot never would have allowed the pilot to fly if he'd been drunk at take off. That leaves me to believe he drank and did PCP after takeoff.
@@kenoneill8783 hindsight is a wonderful thing.........................................
@@kenoneill8783 An hour and a half flight is enough time to become inebriated. My guess is, they were reasonably sober when they made that good take-off.
I love how a drunk Russian pilot is dubbed as “very experienced and the best in the country”
Nobody died
a drunk pilot is a drunk pilot, experienced or not.
@@agnelodsa788 a drunken Russian pilot, though, is redundant. All Russian pilots are drunk
@@gxlorp You have to be drunk to fly those russian tin cans sober man would never have the courage.
It’s your output that matters not your input, drinking isn’t the problem but getting drunk is 🤷🏿♂️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I hate to keep watching these videos but I’m intrigued of how the events lead up dammit. Condolences to all the families.
360 degrees....can you imagine how terrified it must be to flip completely upside down and looking out the window as the ground comes closer and closer? Rest in peace to the beautiful people whom we will never forget.
I read an article about this plane crash that said the Russian authorities found out that the captain was high on PCP and also had 5 shots of vodka while he was flying the airplane on that horrible tragic day where innocent women and children lost their lives all because of a irresponsible captain failed his job may those passengers souls rest in peace and to that Captain rest and piss..✈️
@@nicaxiv14jd wait no men flies the plane? That is very very strange.
the passengers would have been shitting on themselves
If you re wise, you will at least understand that you can neither trust the plane, neither the pilot, neither the company! Don t take plane any more what could be the price!
@@nobody-rr5ln actually, you’re nearly twenty times more to die in a car. Planes are much safer, and there will always be accidents. If you’re wise, Do NOT DRIVE
I knew someone on this flight. It was his first trip home in many years. The mood in the office the day we found out was so somber. He was a great person and is missed!
Sorry for your loss thats horrible 😢
@@Preppylittegirl it was. His birthday was 2 days after this crash, and his wife and son were not on the flight at the time it happened (they were to join him a couple days later). Their loss was just awful...I can’t even imagine.
R.I.P 🕊
could have been much worse they crashed on a railway line in an area with many residential buildings
So tragic. Such an insane way to go, and for the stupidest reason. I'm sorry for your completely unfair loss, and I hope someone gets the lawsuit victory that puts airo-flop out of business. This was inexcusable.
Man the respect you give to the passengers and crew at the end is way more than any of the big documentaries! Props.
RIP the passengers the first officer and the crew they had no reason to die they will be remembered forever they are legends may their souls rest in peace pilots should be checked before entering the plane 🙏🙏😭😭
That poor ATC, he knew he was talking to a drunk pilot and was trying his best to keep him from doing something stupid. Does make you wonder how common this is that ATC stepped in like that, very rare for ATC to issue commands to pilots like that, never seen that before in these accidents (even in ones where they should've).
Yes I was thinking the exact same thing. Hats off to the ATC! Very brave in his communication and he did everything right!
I agree and I also think about the ATC guy;s frustration when he kind of realized what was going home and knowing there wasn't much he could do,,
The controller was very impressive, I agree. It seems like in a lot of these incidents, ATC is hesitant to override a pilot's demands, but the guy in this case was firm and professional.
Well its not clear if he knew right away but he knew for sure something was wrong
@ D.K. The ATC guy knew, or else he would not have explicitly asked the pilots to follow his instructions strictly. He was trying to babysit them through the landing, by asking them to calculate vectors to the final approach... this is something ATCs normally don't do. Asking the crew if they were okay is also another giveaway. Approach ATCs normally keep the radio communications short and only use only standard phraseologies, because they are managing so many incoming and outgoing traffic, there is no time to have conversations that are not direct approach instructions. I wonder if the poor guy actually saw the plane crashed into front of his eyes...
Wow, the captain sounded like he was blitzed out of his mind. What a damn shame all those people had to die as a result.
I guarantee it wasn't the first time he drank and flew either. Might as well play Russian roulette...
Pilot seems so stupid speaking is also not good
Being a pilot is very stressful ; a guy can’t have a few cocktails, pop a Xanax to take the edge off without everybody complaining.
@@pneulancer becoming a pilot is a choice you make. Of course you cant be drinking and taking drugs to "take the edge off". If you want to do that go work at a job that wont risk lives, like McDonalds.
@@PenguinGaming I think he's being sarcastic
I like the background music you use. Good choice . Keep up all the good work.
Shame there isn’t an alarm that says “What the fuck are you doing?!” for situations like this
"Pull up, сука!"
"Блядь, stall!"
The Captain sounded absolutely hammered, surely pre flight somebody should have noticed and said something.
AlexinLeicester Probably drank a whole bottle of Stolichnaya vodka pre-flight !
Thank God the passengers in a Citilink flight directly took notice of their pilot's drunkness and incapability to pilot his aircraft in such conditions.
@@s21b0b citilink..??
@@s21b0b when was this?
You know you shouldn't be driving a plane when you keep misremembering your call sign.
Says "what the f*** are we doing" shortly before impacting the ground _inverted_ ... this plane should never have been allowed to take off, period.
Me on my first day with no experience and while drunk... that's probably what I'd say.
Why would you type out “period” when you can just type “.”
POS pilot was drunk off his arse and probably died a quick peaceful death, unaware of what was going on. Everyone else must have had intense dread and panic before their death. Both the pilot and co-pilot are to blame for this accident, absolutely sickening.
@@sirbeethoven have you not heard the emphatic expression spoken aloud?
Plane was fine
FO: Bottoms up!
C: Na zdrowie!
FO: No, I mean the plane is upside down!
these simulations really get my adrenaline going
The ATC went above and beyond to try and help these guys. He knew something was very wrong with the pilot.
We literally put our lives in their hands when board an airliner. Some of the negligence I’ve seen in these RUclips clips are outrageous.
Simple solution..Don’t get on a plane, because you never know
@Nenethegreat W Better than the Wrong brothers
No kidding. The planes pretty much fly themselves. And are very safe. The problem is mistakes by pilots, landing or taking off. Or mistakes by mechanics.
Guys, there are 70,000,000 flights worldwide per year. 70 million! There have been very, very few accidents relatively speaking. Even less due to pilot error.
By binge watching these videos, you're literally brainwashing yourselves to believe that a large number of real pilots are similar to the ones you see in these videos.
Go and binge watch videos about 5G causing coronavirus, and you'll start to believe what you're hearing.
This just brought drinking and driving to a whole new level... no pun intended.
God watch over the poor souls taken that day, and may their families heal. ❤
I don't know why but I think plane crashes are the scariest as you can see that the plane is going down and u realize u have only moments to live.
thats literally what keeps me up at night🥲
You only have a few moments left to get you're last " AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH In

The fact he was intoxicated was given as an incidental afterthought.
Cubby 69, I noticed that and find it mind boggling. Almost as if they didn't care that he was drunk. His drinking was the cause of the crash.
Yeah, very strange.
I saw a documentary of a factory in Russia where they built cars back in the soviet era. The production line was slow in the morning and sped up as the hangovers of the workers wore off.

The plane crashed around 500 meters away from my relatives' house. Not only was it so close, they lived on the Samolyotnaya (Airplane) street, which is a really weird way to add irony to the tragedy
That was incredibly sad. I can’t even bear to imagine the terror those passengers were feeling during that. RIP.
Beyond sad. It's devastating that this had to happen to those poor passengers. The CVR will always make me sick to y stomach. Hearing the pilots behave so belligerently and in such an underqualified-for-the-737 manner scares me. The worst part? They faked their 737 qualification documentation. Disgusting and gutting.
Pilots should be checked with an Alcoholmeter before boarding a plane
I agree.
@Sim C ok.
@Sim C Thanks anyway
Planes should be equipped with an alcohol interlock.
@Sim C Do another check after landing
The impact at 10:14 is heart wrenching 😖
Yeah, when the last part of your CVR sounds like a Russian dashcam video, you know it was bad.

"Affirmative, I mean Fuckin' A!"
I'm fascinated by this ATC's voice though, even when he sounded annoyed and rebuked the captain to follow his instructions strictly, it just sounds like a lullaby to me
He was 100% professional, even when dealing with a drunk idiot pilot.
"Just do it all by yourself, ok?" What the hell does that mean? Boy, talk about Crew Resource Management. R.I.P

I feel for the passengers and cabin crew because they were so low to the ground and ready for landing then to have this unexpectedly occur...such a horrible shame.
"Western attitude indicators", "having to operate throttles independently", "spacial disorientation", and one tiny little detail....the captain was slobbering drunk.
Yeah. I was thinking, "How did this video go from having a wasted captain to it being an maintenance issue?"
That's why a lot of time I don't believe anything the NTSB says.
Hopefully, this doesn't occur often!
@NSDAP Enthusiast 88 The NTSB was pretty harsh in their assessment of the pilots of Pinnacle Airlines Flight 3701 and the Learjet 35 that crashed on approach to Teterboro in 2017. I think they do a good job in acknowledging that the flight crew have the final say as to how the airplane is going to perform.
@@phazer1001 When it does, it rarely happens again!
Imagine being in a taxi and your driver smells of alcohol as he's traveling 35 over the speed limit muttering "what the f- am i doing"
You’re missing something the plane was also not reacting the way that it should and not because he was drunk because the controls were doing something opposite of what it should’ve been doing go back read the commentary and watch the video again....
@@snappypac you clearly don't understand shit about planes. better find another channel that's easier on your neuron. the one and only cause for this crash was the pilot manually "flying" the damm thing (no AP/AT) while drunk. had he not been drunk the plane would have been perfectly capable of landing
8:42 F/O shouted: "look at your vertical speed indicator!"
Flight Channel is the best in presenting the facts and truth 🙏👍🏼
The sudden change with the captain's attitude while talking to first officer and ATC is just surprising..This guy has an Alter ego,causing so many lives. This is a lesson to those people who think highly of themselves thinking that they wouldn't make a slight mistake since they have experience and rank.

She said that there where a few people asking her and the other people that where meant to be boarding the plane questions. The staff at the airport said that their plane was delayed and they got a new plane. My gran found out that the Captain and the other works on the plane where all drunk. When she told me that I thought to myself, ‘Imagine if the pilots never got caught…. who knows what would of happened?
I can not imagine someone being drunk while having to fly a plane full of passengers. That's sickening
The captain sounded really aggressive. The F/O may have been a little intimidated by him.
agreed
If I'd been the F/O I'd have knocked him out, landed the plane myself and suffered the consequences later - whilst still being alive to suffer them.
Also he had very little flight time on type A/C I was just yelling to Copilot take control,, tell the drunk captain it;s my Aircraft!
@@Derry_Aire Yep and President Putin (well at that time Prime Minster Putin) Either way he is 1 hell of a force to be reckoned withwould have certainly understood the situation, Had either the Capt and or f/o would have survived you can bet they would have been called right into Putin's office, him demanding answers. The last thing ANYONE wants is to be called into a totally PISSED OFF Putin's office.
No. You don't know Russians. It's normal for them to trash talk each other.
Imagine being fatigue & drunk at the same time while doing ur work as a chef, might end up cooking ur hands & fingers
the fatigue issue is serious across the world. too few pilots.. too much demand and little pay anymore... it is like Truck drivers being pushed to drive long hours without breaks because of $$$$$$$$$$...
Actually, substance abuse among chefs is rather common.
Then you spend a few days in the hospital. But sadly this guy killed a bunch of people due to his stupidity.
@@tsdobbi Im a Chef. Can confirm 😆👍
I was a functional alcoholic in my early 20s, worked construction and logging. Almost killed myself more times then I can remember.
Even though you may become disoriented at night, when the plane rolled and eventually was doing a nose dive, a person’s body could feel it and knows what’s happening.
Its hard enough to fly an aircraft sober, much less having a few prior to flight. What was he thinking...or not thinking?
nice job i like this format
"Don't drink and drive"
This pilot: I'm about to do a big brain move
Lol
Lol
Lol
Damn... I got this.. I do it everyday..
Its 100% safe dont worry
There should be a sign board in the sky saying:Don't drink and fly🤣🤣
not funny
@@lethal6147 exactly
@@lethal6147 bro just take the best out of nothing and stop criticizing people
@@souradipsarkar3361 Dude, That wasn't even a funny joke, Like who doesn't know that you should not "DrInK aNd fLy" anyways, NVM.
@@lethal6147 if it were true then the pilot won't have done that, anyways let the bygones be bygones
The ATC should have said there was vodka waiting for him in the pilots lounge. That vector would have been set for sure!
"only in mother Russia you can fly a plane drunk"
but in seriousness, rest in peace to all the people on that plane
Well I Live In Perm city , and every morning I go to university passing by the memorial place where this flight crashed
i literally didnt ask
@@amor7886 Well I literally wasn't talking to you 😉😎
I came to the comments to see the gushing anti Russia hysteria. Its a hold over from the cold war. What do you think when most westerners agree that Russia is a neanderthal country full of drunks...
@@mvd4436 That's right they are almost drunk all the time 😂😂
Aww I’m sorry. So sad. 😞
ATC: Descend.
Pilots: *Proceeds to climb even higher*
I hate flying. I know that I'm so much more likely to crash on the ground, but at least if I crash on the ground I don't fall thousands and thousands of feet at hundreds of miles per hour. Like you are putting so much trust in the equipment and the people and history has shown so much carelessness. So many situations that could have been avoided. So many people having to die to make a change. I despise flying
trust me, pilots do care
This channel requires a lot more than 1M subs.
I can't imagine how terrified those people must have been. Every time we fly we put our lives in complete strangers hands... I really shouldn't be watching these videos right now knowing how much I fear flying, but dammit these are great videos.
same. im fully aware that i shouldn’t watch those videos but frankly i cant stop watching. these videos are so interesting and well made. every time i imagine how the passengers probably had felt. i literally get goosebumps if i think about sitting in a plane and suddenly it does a 360° flip.
@Charles Rahman same here!
Agreed👍
nowadays idk about russia but b4 flying everyone gets a test done where they confirm if they r drunk or not
Man 😑😦
All I can think of is how those passengers must have felt knowing they were so close to landing and feeling the plane bank so sharply so many times
_"Best in the company"_
Famous last words
So much thanks to you for making this video so accurate..
ATC: 821 Altitude?
Captain: *BURP* High as a kite.
the funniest comment yet!
@@raphaellavictoria01 indeed
I read an article about this plane crash that said the Russian authorities found out that the captain was high on PCP and also had 5 shots of vodka while he was flying the airplane on that horrible tragic day where innocent women and children lost their lives all because of a irresponsible captain failed his job may those passengers souls rest in peace and to that Captain rest and piss..✈️
Higher than Snoop dog
Wow, even in Russian we can hear the captain is smashed! What I don't understand is, why the co-pilot didn't use an excuse early on when he sensed trouble, to go find someone to help him remove the captain, and then fly the plane himself.
Yeah the FO wasn’t aggressive enough. He’s older and more sensible, had CVR recordings to back his actions.
You need two pilots to take off or land so the FO would have needed the captain, what he should have done though was take over control but then he would be at the mercy of the captain's drunken calculations and he'd have to assume the captain would make the correct landing adjustments while the FO was flying.
@@krashd that's complete bullshit. if one of the pilot dies midflight the other one is supposed to be able to land the damn thing. having two pilots is for NORMAL operation. the situation here clearly was not normal. better have the drunk aggressive pilot removed from command. period
@@itellyouforfree7238 It seems that the captain was aggressive and unpredictable, maybe the fo was scared he might attack him or sabotage the flight if he assumes sole control
@@ramsesii8420 so, because the fo was afraid the captain might attack him, he let him kill everybody onboard instead? that does not make much sense..
Reminder to ALL Pilots....you have a huge responsibility to bring every one safe and sound to our respective families. Pls.handle us with much care and love.
The ones that crash after a normal flight is the ones that sadden me the most, these poor souls are thinking that it was a good flight with no issues only for it to crash in the end.
I have Russian relatives that can't even make out what the pilot is slurring.
No matter if it's my family or not I hate seeing people die. It's just horrible. R.I.P to those who died
God bless their souls 🙏 with Jesus now 🙏
“Spatial disorientation” I don’t know, the FO seemed to realize that something was seriously wrong pretty quickly.
I had some of these on a device. I love how these are done. I was watching probably my third video on a flight from Chicago to Tampa when I looked to my right. The passenger next to me had a look of absolute horror. I was scrolling through videos and just forgot where I was.
Haha last year I was on a flight with my friend and when we were close to our destination, there was so much turbulence that I was gripping the armrests hard and my friend said "don't be scared" I said "this is what happens when I watch too much of The flight channel's videos" then the woman across from us just gave a me a big smile and said "yep TFC!". We were all going to the same place coincidentally for a job and we talked more about TFC after that .
I remember this at the time. You can hear in their voices that the capt is drunk. Makes me so mad. Think of all the passengers.
Damn so sad to see all that, RIP. The ATC was calm, yet assertive and has a very soothing voice though.
The plane doing somersaults in the sky, imagine the horror people must have felt inside! Meanwhile I'm getting the chills from the actual voices and sounds.
RIP to the deceased 🙏🏻
@2:02: "...the pilots are described as very experienced and the best in the company"
......providing they're not *sloshed* whilst flying!
In a air crash documentary, there was a passenger that sent a text to her friend before take off roll, that said “ she is worried it sounds like the pilot is drunk”
"How a drunk pilot-"
Me: Yeah, yeah, I know where this is going.
I don’t know why I watch these, I am not a very good flyer, 🤪 but you put these together so well so informative. Next time I fly I’m going to ask the flight attendants so everything ok in the cockpit!?
once before take-off, years ago, I heard the pilot's announcements and it seemed to me that he was about to fall asleep any second. It sounded so weird to me, I was really scared. But then the flight went well.
