I had that experience exactly once. Jets did a fly-over at a 49rs game at Candlestick Park once. I didn't know it was coming and almost fell out of my seat!
@@billprice1483 Agreed. However, I do miss the F-14 Tomcat's raw power. The F-14 and the B1-B are the best high speed passes that I've experienced way back at the March AFB Air Shows. Especially the B1-B, as it approached they recommended that we close our ears because of how loud it was. It literally shook the ground as it passed by.
I think he said "I can't even" which is about what I say every time we have an air show here. When the jet/jets turn above your head and take off it's like nothing else I've experienced, just crazy.
Many years ago, in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada, there was an air show. I didn't attend as I didn't know it was on. I was downtown driving when suddenly this overhead rumble hit us. My buddy dove behind me and my arms were moving uncontrollably on the stearing wheel...like rubber bands in the wind. Whatever jet was in the air hit some speed that made us freak out without control of our body. Amazing...truly amazing.
Best high speed pass i saw, was a B1-B, over Dyess AFB, TX. It was actually the practice runs, on day before. I was in the Air Force, as C-130 maintenance. And i had weekend duty that weekend, so some of us actually went out to one of the C-130's, on the flight line, got up on top on the wings, and watch it do its thing for a about 25 mins. They went just a tad faster for the practice runs, since there were no civilians around for liability. It went by faster than this F-18 did. And the B-1 is a HUGE aircraft. To see it moving so fast was surreal.... wings swept.... so cool.
Honestly I couldn’t agree more! I always think of that whenever I’m at airshows and see the fighters fly or when I see the jet teams fly. It’s pretty wild when you think about it.
the thing that blew my mind is the fact there was a commercial jet that flew Mach 2 getting you from London to New York in less than 3 hours in 1976 (concorde)
@@zappyyz6368 ah yes the Concorde! Definitely another amazing aircraft for sure! It’s a shame it’s not in service any more definitely would have been cool to fly on one and it would have been cool to say hey I flew super sonic haha.
I also get the chills when they fly that close! I had the privilege of having two F/A-18 do the high alpha pass right over my car as I was driving to get into a NASCAR track parking lot many years ago and man oh man did that ever shake the car and was louder than loud with that kind of power angled toward the ground!
I work the ramp at an airport and we dont see fighter jets too often but when they do show up, they tend to do these high-speed low passes before circling back around and landing. It's a jump scare every time because you can hardly hear them before they pass.
Some years ago me & my dad were outside working on my car & we kept hearing loud roars over head we both stopped what we were doing only to look straight up in the air & see 2 , F-18s play dogfighting each other . The maneuverability of fighter jets is crazy to seen with your own eyes . They must have been doing this for about 45 minutes or so , we just sat there watching , they had to be 8000 feet or so in the air & they were plane as day you could tell they were F-18s because of their shape , I couldn’t Believe how loud they were being over a mile in the sky , just incredible to see .
@@mtnbound2764 absolutely. It would be a magnificent sight to watch the Japanese carriers getting hit by a bunch of f18s in a low level attack at mach2, or to see a squadron of zeroes explode from radar guided missiles fired from bvr.
It's fascinating that the sound of a particular engine or mechanical device can bring fascination, joy, and even motivation. The best part of that is what makes being alive, well, enjoyable. For everything out there, there are just incidents or activity that will forever be just unknown. And what drives humans in their existence? To figure out the unknown. Nothing like over thinking!
I believe that part of the appeal of attending rock concerts is the sheer overwhelming loudness of the music. You aren't just listening to the music, you become the music (or the music becomes you.) It doesn't do your poor ears any favors over the long run though.
@@clintonsmith5163 I love live music myself. Great concerts are the closest thing that I can say are truly divine experiences, as I see it. The human experience is almost alien if you break it down, especially compared to the rest of the living entities on this planet.
Coolest doughnut I ever saw was a F15, it was August here in Texas with very high humidity ( not sure if that really means anything) and it pulsed like crazy and was very well defined.
That’s badass! F-15’s are awesome! I saw a pair of F-15’s taking off at Nellis Air Force base when I was out in Vegas back in 2019 and boy was that cool! And actually humidity definitely has a lot to do with the doughnut lol AKA vape. The higher the humidity is at an Airshow the greater chance you have to catching some vapes! Thus making for a great picture and video! 🤙🏻
Last year at the EAA airshow, I had the pleasure of seeing the F16 creep past the speed of sound, and emit a sonic boom. Still remember the feeling of it in my chest, just a crazy noise. Very cool machines
I'll take things that didn't happen at all ever at an Airshow for 2000 Alex. Ive been to every EAA airshow for the last 10 years. Nobody is even remotely allowed to approach the speed of sound. The sonic boom would burst people's eardrums at the level they pass by. Not to mention the damage it would cause on the ground. See you in Oshkosh later this month. Liar.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver Yea, your a damn liar also. Mach 1 speeds have been illegal over most of the US since the mid 60's. It would never happen at an airshow, the amount of windows that would be broken, houses damaged and ear drums burst would lead to an unreal amount of lawsuits.
When I was a kid living in Germany, 40 years ago, we would routinely see and hear jets booming through the sound barrier. I guess there's more rules and regulations in the US.
I live in Florissant, MO that's down the street from Hazelwood, MO. Where that fighter Jet was built. As a young man of 12 in the early 1970's I recall visiting a friend that lived very close to Lambert field (next to Mcdonnell-Douglas) We were in his backyard when an F-15 took-off. It proceeded to do a vertical climb. Watching those twin burners disappear in the sky.
@@NickolaiVolkov who said anything about the Hornets being faster? The reason the Hornets does better high speed passes is because its higher aspect ratio wing creates vapor much more often than anything else. They also have such high drag that they also do the fastest passes over land of all the fighters (F-16, F-15 and F-22 are too easy to etch past mach 1).
@@no_regerts5176 maybe in the looks department for the plane, but I’m talking about the fact that the Hornets do the fastest HSP and also create vapes more than anything else.
I was lucky enough once to be in the right place, at the right time to witness a military jet fly pass. I was taking a walk around the Malvern hills, Worcestershire, many years ago, when I here a slight rumbling sound, I'm like WTF is that, I turn around to scan the horizon, when I see just in the knick of time a military aircraft flying towards me flying between the peaks of the hills (obviously not full throttle). It scared the hell out of me, I didn't know whether to stand and watch or dive for cover, but anyway as it got up close it did a sharp turn between two peaks and flew full throttle up and into the clouds, it was the most amazing thing I've ever seen, the whole thing probably lasted no more than maybe 10-15 seconds, but boy was It loud. There must be a military base within the area.
Growing up we lived a few miles out of town and Jets would often fly by breaking the sound barrier and it would shake the whole house. I wish they still did that 😔
I once saw an "alarm start" of a Eurofighter (Thrust-to-weight ratio around 1.15 - which means it could go 90° up) with afterburner. It broke the sound barrier at quite some height but holy sh.t - that was a sound I've never heard before. There was an Me-262 (it was an air show and a reworked Me-262) before that was already loud. But that Eurofighter was next-level. It was said that children should wear ear protections before the Eurofighter started and everyone realized they were not kidding.
nice job! I was at the show in the lawn section a little further back. You had a great spot there! I thought the ribbon cut performance was nicely done, too.
I agree! the ribbon cut was amazing to watch! Some of those civilian acrobatic pilots are impressive for sure! And we were lucky the ceiling eventually lifted that way we can get the whole show in!
That’s the VISUAL differential pressure build-up between the leading edges and trailing edges of the aircraft. Any aerofoil OR wing traveling at that speed..probably JUST under Mach 1 or 750 mph IIRC (close to sound barrier speed). BEAUTIFUL….
Afterburner is only used for a very short period of time. Typically for quick take offs from air craft carriers or different maneuvers. Double combustion ignition uses so much fuel.
Maverick: “Tower this is ghost rider requesting a flyby.” Tower: “Negative sir the pattern is full.” Maverick: “I’m sorry Goose but it’s time to buzz the tower!” 😂😂😂
Fun fact for the announcer: The vapor cone has nothing to do with the sound barrier. It's just and expansion wave that condenses given the right atmospheric conditions.
They can only go faster if they fly at a higher attitude. The F/A-18 top out at 1.8 mach. But that's at around 35,000 feet. At sea level, it can only go about 1.1 mach (due to the dense air)
@You are a sheep wow! that’s so freakin awesome! I bet it was a fun job for sure!

That is an amazing high speed pass and with the vapors (if that is what that is called) around the aircraft as it flies by. Never seen that before. Great video and thank you.
Guess I grew up lucky. I used to live near Oshkosh and the EAA. Volunteered there for BFA for years. Almost every type of plane their has probably flown over my house.
My best friend and I went to an air show in 1985 at the El TORO Marine air base. They some Top Gun guys up from San Diego. We asked one of the pilots how long it took to get from San Diego to El TORO. He said about 10mins. and the whole time that they over the water they where about 50 feet above it. True ? I don't know I just know the story he told us.
I lived near the Atsugi base in Japan, and the Super Hornet flew from the aircraft carrier in Yokosuka as a carrier-based aircraft and was watching the training.
I loved going to air shows with my husband and two boys. We have a friend with a beach house in Fort Morgan Alabama. We are unable to go there anymore due to health reasons. But when we used to go in the 80’s and 90’s there were some days when the Blue Angels would practice along the beach. We could hear them coming and run out to the beach. They would tip their wings at us and on occasion put the smoke on. There were times when we were the only people on the beach. It was an awesome experience. I would get chills watching them. And the air shows. The sounds and realizing how powerful those aircraft is just amazing. I loved it. Actually got to see the Space Shuttle launch quite a few times and other rockets take off. The feeling in your chest is out of this world. I actually cried after I saw my first Shuttle launch. Wish they never stopped that program. They could have built a couple more. They were work horses. Whoops got off subject. My apologies. Air shows are lots of fun that’s for sure.
i love to read others stories about their sightings. few years ago i was fishing Oroville will my cousin when two jets (wish i could decipher) flew ~500-1,000ft and we’re both zipping through the lake canyons in the most choreographed fighter-jet dance i’ve seen with my own eyes
So fun fact: During the 'high speed pass' they are booking it yes - but are not close to Mach 1.0 ( 750 mph based upon how high you are from sea level). They are actually booking closer 500 mph or closer to .8 on the Mach meter. Commercial Jets tend to fly around 300-400 mph. If you look up Navy high speed passes, you can get a better sense (as well as an actual 'Mach Pass') of the speed once an aircraft actually is on the doorstep of breaking the sound barrier. Don't get me wrong, he's hauling the mail...but that speed vs Mach .95+...is a big difference. Still awesome to see tho.
Experiencing the power and noise of a fighter jet flying at low altitude in person is an awe inspiring experience. There really isnt anything like it.

Not crazy, at that speed it makes complete sense.
And that is just because the aircraft is faster than the speed of sound.

Not to mention what your seeing is moisture in the air but exactly what you said
Quick question. At 41,000 lbs of thrust, burning 60,000 lbs of fuel per hour, just how much fuel can one of these carry?
That’s at afterburner speeds. Normal cruising speed doesn’t burn anywhere near that much.
With aux tanks and max internal fuel about 27,000 lbs. So a flight of less than half an hour is possible in continuous AB.
Afterburner is only used for a very short period of time. Typically for quick take offs from air craft carriers or different maneuvers. Double combustion ignition uses so much fuel.
Dedicate hours to DCS World and you will learn more than you wanted about these aircraft.

They can only go faster if they fly at a higher attitude. The F/A-18 top out at 1.8 mach. But that's at around 35,000 feet. At sea level, it can only go about 1.1 mach (due to the dense air)
@@Steve_Hayden thank you. I did not know that. My favorite plane
Those are my babies... those are my babies... every jet talks to my heart.
Kudos to engineers, who shape our future
Who shape our future? I think you mean who will destroy our future.
@@Hard2hit94 ....said the guy enjoying a multitude of comforts created by engineers. 🙄
Awesome!
Im not sure if some of you have ever seen a jet that close. But it is so loud and causes so much vibration it makes your insides hurt
I saw an F-104 on high-speed low pass ... engine glowing orange and the smell of burnt fuel!
@@RideAcrossTheRiver that will wake you up for sure!
@@onechippyboi fairly close, but maybe about one level above
I used to go to the Miramar Air show in San Diego, I’ve seen the F-117, the B2. Good thing they are stealth cause they are far from quiet
Worked on the original Lot 1 hornets back in the early 80's (usmc) ,,, still get a chill when I see one flying . Amazing aircraft.....
Same! I get chills every time I see them fly too, it never gets old! And I bet that was cool working around hornets all the time. 🤙🏻🇺🇸
Same here. COM/NAV tech in the first Marine F/A-18 squadron on the east coast.
I fly them in the military I also work for Boeing and I get to test fly them 3 months out of the year when I’m not deployed.
great aircraft but im still sad it had to replace the f-14, most gorgeous jet ever built
Not gonna lie the F-14 tomcat was an amazing jet for sure! Too bad it’s out of service now.
@You are a sheep no I haven’t lol. I’m sure it isn’t fun 😂
@You are a sheep wow! that’s so freakin awesome! I bet it was a fun job for sure! I bet you’ve been all over the world on the carrier I assume, Also my grandfather used to be in the Navy so that’s part of the reason the Navy is my favorite military branch and Navy blue is my favorite color too haha. And btw thanks for the positive feedback! I appreciate it and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 🤙🏻🇺🇸
@You are a sheep thank you for your service my man! 🇺🇸 and also thank you for the sub, Really means a lot! And I definitely will continue to upload more awesome stuff! 🤙🏻 also Look out! you got another sub comin your way too! I’m subbing rn 🤙🏻
wow F18 super hornet.good sharing👍
That is an amazing high speed pass and with the vapors (if that is what that is called) around the aircraft as it flies by. Never seen that before. Great video and thank you.
its breaking the sound barrier. what you are seeing are the visual representation of sonic booms.
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
@@TheHitchboy Ah, thanks @TheHitchboy for that info. Wasn't sure what that was called, but knew it had to be due to speed. take care.
@@TheHitchboy its called a mach cone
Guess I grew up lucky. I used to live near Oshkosh and the EAA. Volunteered there for BFA for years. Almost every type of plane their has probably flown over my house.
0:43 for the actual clip
My best friend and I went to an air show in 1985 at the El TORO Marine air base. They some Top Gun guys up from San Diego. We asked one of the pilots how long it took to get from San Diego to El TORO. He said about 10mins. and the whole time that they over the water they where about 50 feet above it. True ? I don't know I just know the story he told us.
Thats me on my Honda at 3am
Same 😂
I thought I only got goosebumps watching that in person - not so! Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, 41,000 pounds of thrust. That is almost as much as I produce when I am getting jiggy with my girlfriend.
Oh boy 😂
Guy in blue hat sums it up perfectly ☺️
why does that not look fast to me
Perspective. It's much faster looking in real life
I lived near the Atsugi base in Japan, and the Super Hornet flew from the aircraft carrier in Yokosuka as a carrier-based aircraft and was watching the training.
My brother was stationed in Yokosuka. He was on the U.S.S. George Washington 😉
If slow was fast he’d be going really slow
😅😂🔁
All the hoopla over the jet... then a side-by-side strolls by! 😆
@@RockwellRhodes 😂😂😂
Sounds like freedom
Indeed it does! 🇺🇸🤙🏻
Best jet in the battlefield series💪
I loved the first 45 seconds of this video
can't get much more badass than this
That golf cart was FLYING.
Ikr!? 😂
Never miss an air show.
I love that "Bullet Train" by Stephen Schwartz was being played during the pass!
Honestly was a good song choice! for this maneuver chosen by the Rhino demo team! 🤙🏻
That will never not give me goosebumps.
Haha same here brotha 🤙🏻
I loved going to air shows with my husband and two boys. We have a friend with a beach house in Fort Morgan Alabama. We are unable to go there anymore due to health reasons. But when we used to go in the 80’s and 90’s there were some days when the Blue Angels would practice along the beach. We could hear them coming and run out to the beach. They would tip their wings at us and on occasion put the smoke on. There were times when we were the only people on the beach. It was an awesome experience. I would get chills watching them. And the air shows. The sounds and realizing how powerful those aircraft is just amazing. I loved it.
Actually got to see the Space Shuttle launch quite a few times and other rockets take off. The feeling in your chest is out of this world. I actually cried after I saw my first Shuttle launch.
Wish they never stopped that program. They could have built a couple more. They were work horses.
Whoops got off subject. My apologies.
Air shows are lots of fun that’s for sure.
The guy in the blue hat at the end is so bummed he didn’t get it on his phone tragic
i love to read others stories about their sightings. few years ago i was fishing Oroville will my cousin when two jets (wish i could decipher) flew ~500-1,000ft and we’re both zipping through the lake canyons in the most choreographed fighter-jet dance i’ve seen with my own eyes
OMG! Dude in the blue cap is my soul bro
スゴい❗ ほんの一瞬でパスして行きましたね～。これぞ戦闘機の魅力ですね✨
I want so bad to be a passenger in one of those awesome jets!
So fun fact: During the 'high speed pass' they are booking it yes - but are not close to Mach 1.0 ( 750 mph based upon how high you are from sea level). They are actually booking closer 500 mph or closer to .8 on the Mach meter. Commercial Jets tend to fly around 300-400 mph. If you look up Navy high speed passes, you can get a better sense (as well as an actual 'Mach Pass') of the speed once an aircraft actually is on the doorstep of breaking the sound barrier.
Don't get me wrong, he's hauling the mail...but that speed vs Mach .95+...is a big difference. Still awesome to see tho.
Your post is so far off correct, it's ridiculous.
wow this jet faster than 1200hp gtr unbelievable
