Crazy helicopter landing

[cmberry09]

Its not actually fake my dad is an engineer for valley helicopters in hope bc he is just hovering and has his skid on the side

[mojappa]

@SPLiFFWORX- smoke less spliffs, read more books. When you grow up you'll understand the value of educating yourself before spewing a vulgar rant of juvenile insults.

[williamcrabtree]

ok, here is the deal. ITS NOT FUCKIN FAKE!!!!!!, there discussion over.

[jetsmontanaro]

when the book said "helicopters can land anywhere!" They fuc&!#g MEANT IT!

[Cremastere87]

The proof that is real is around 0:11 : you can see the blades moving in a weird way, almost like they invert direction. That is the proof that is the camera that makes them look like they are spinning slowly. Just like when u see a car wheel going fast and it looks like it goes backwards

[simpimp6108]

I dont man cant tell if is fake or not.

[tninbredretard]

POLISH AIR FORCE?

[drgle420]

@1RadNomad That Is true i dont know much about videography, but rotors have to go faster than that. theres no question. Theres no way to tell, but the main rotor RPM's are roughly the same while "balancing" as liftoff, which wouldnt be possible unless its only resting some of the weight, and @fokeev, i know certification, i just worded that poorly.

[mattyboy111222]

they drop them tree feelers off in some of the most hard to land places, take my hat off to them, wish i chud do it wiv my RC Heli,

[LightEternal222]

For all the dip-shits who think it's fake like they know what they're talking about . . . please look up 'Stroboscopic Effect' and educate yourselves - for Christ's Sake!!!

[SPLiFFWORX]

@LightEternal222 well, if its NOT fake I can only feel sorry for the stupid ass retard pilot including the dumbfuck filming it all. next thing he'd be chopping off heads or smashing bridges unless he license is withdrawn

[mizokako]

every time i try that i horribly, horribly crash

[HelplessMammal]

Ill have to try this with my T-rex

[slyguy666]

I work for a heli logging outfit in on the west coast of Canada and our pilots do this kind of shit all the time. Usually they land on the side of a very steep hill. They "toe in", a log is built up off the side of the hill so when they hover the front tip of the skid is on the hillside and the back of the skid is on a horizontal log held up buy a few timbers. They never actually land but half hover and make adjustments as people get in and out. Totally real.

[SPLiFFWORX]

@slyguy666 great, more retard pilots

[1ZillBilly]

great piloting.

[UberLifeTroll]

seems fake

[Dazza2292]

that is the weirdest landing i have seen lol now i must go buy a helicopter and try and land it upon my staircase banister mwhahaha

[thebattlefieldnick1]

fucking fail damn u idiot

[MrMeanderthal]

standard operating in the logging world..

[drgle420]

definitely fake. I have my private rotary pilots liscence, its a camera trick along withresting SOME of the jetranger's weight. Having logged hours in a similar Bell 206 jet ranger, the rotors must go way faster for liftoff, therefore a camera trick is employed

[fokeev00]

@drgle420

I call shenanigans.... actually, this is fairly common in tight situations. What is the RPM range of a Bell 206b?

BTW... its a certification, not a license.

[1RadNomad]

@drgle420 You clearly know more about flying than you do about cinematography and stroboscopic effect. Nothing fake here.

[WR1ck1e]

If you idiots are going to say it's fake, explain how it is. Go ahead and tell me what's fake about this.

[bwaldy1]

leave it to a logger to do some thing badass

[20112011yasser]

this is fake

[WR1ck1e]

@20112011yasser How?

[KillWithFire12]

@20112011yasser Not it's not dumbass

[Marine1996Us]

@20112011yasser Lol dangerous yes, but fake... no

[TEUNSreviews]

just like GTA

[MrBOB39]

Looks like a Delicate Balancing act..

As the person departs the helicopter changes its balance on that bridge (or whatever that walkway was ) requiring quick pilot adjustment & yet extreme precision ( nicely done indeed )

[pjc1536me]

Parking.....like a boss!!

[maniekav29]

its what the military call a touch hover, keep the machine in a hover but have landing gear/skids resting in contact with something, gives a much steadier hover so safer in tight areas less chance of downwash or wind affecting machine.

[TheMightyLu]

The chopper is actually still levitating, the camera's fps makes it look like the blades are rotating slow.

[shandb9]

ahaha for a secound i thot the helicopter was planking :D

[LordStoneWolf2010]

its called a post landing its used by bush pilots around the world its not technicly either enough power to ballance it on its CG but not enogh to make it light on its skids ... honistly you dont have to be a pilot to know this stuff you can google it

[TheJ123456j]

this is bs



[arctictimberwolf]

Gyro ; ^ }

[ilikeblood33]

not really a landing more like a hover

[WhufcGaming]

its not landed but its hovering :) fake haha oh yeah cause they would edit this

[JadedRockStar84]

So gnarly. We used to do similar "landings" for insert/extract in the mountains. It's really more of a hover and I've seen a lot of pilots (mostly low hour) have trouble with this sort of thing. This pilot certainly has a relaxed grip on the cyclic to be able to stay so steady in a smaller aircraft.

[LaShagma75]

people who dont understand how a camera works may think this is fake, because of the slow turning of the rotor or what the fkn you call the spinning thing over the heli. Its like looking at a car with big rims driving bye and it looks like the weels are turning the wrong way. Am i right???

[replay439]

FAKE !!!!!!!!!!!!

[LuciusCorneliusMacro]

NOOOO WAAAY!! Isn't that like defying the laws of physics? ^^

[highvoltagefeathers]

@LuciusCorneliusMacro its a HELICOPTER. it was DESIGNED to defy gravity.

[LuciusCorneliusMacro]

@highvoltagefeathers

Yeah but at first I thought that the rotors (?) were really going that slow, but then I saw the bushes and realized that the framerates of the camera makes them look like they're moving very slow when irl you'd see how fast the rotors moved.

[keebler156]

@LuciusCorneliusMacro no its hovering, the only reason the roters appear to be spinning slow is cause the cameras frame rate cant capture movement that fast

[electroneticTV]

nice but he wasnt really landing :D nice drop off anyway

[jockejanne]

wat

[NewKurDLanD]

fucken fake 

[dc8p07]

@NewKurDLanD are u retarded? How do u u think its fake?

[dc8p07]

@NewKurDLanD How do u u think its fake?

[pkownage112]

where i can find pilot like that?

[GalacticSystemBuster]

To all who think it's fake...watch this video. watch?v=ZRY2WPmdAKg

The 160th SOAR does this shit all the time, and fast.

[juancarlosdavid2]

muy tezo el man sera que usd le puede decir que se me lleva a la universidad alla ahy un campito para que aterrice

[JamesRadioReplay]

But some cameras like the ones used in films show rota blades moving at normal speed...

[GalacticSystemBuster]

@JamesRadioReplay true, but hollywood movie camera's are way more expensive and impossible to carry in your pocket like a digi-cam.

[apoki]

Fake! There isnt any wind around the ground..

[sjjdiienno1]

@apoki lmao because concrete blows around in the wind right?

[LakotaDrummer666]

Grand Theft Auto style... hell yeah!

[EastsideSILENCER777]

It has to be fake look at how slow the main rotors are spinning

[FallenAquila]

@EastsideSILENCER777

Read the top comment. it looks slow because of the frame rate, watch any helicopter, and even car wheels in a video and you will see the same thing.

[matthiashaenni]

GREAT!

[tigersfanatic98]

one wrong move.....lol

[RockMedved]

At first I thought that the man getting out of the helicopter was actually a pilot, leaving it suspended in mid-air empty. I thought that he would then pull the heli down with his bare hands. Do you know if anyone has ever tried that and lived?

P.S. I, obviously, know absolutely nothing of helicopters, just stumbled on this video by accident.

[xSwiftstar]

thats me in Gta

[diablovt108vt109]

I was looking for any clue that was set up or fake in some way, what piloting.

[rattegg111]

i cannot believe people think this is fake!! youtube really brings the ignorant out of the woodwork!

[F4ROF1NO]

Veterano

[elxulazo19]

u got some skills mate good job

[KornkreisOne]

Where is this bridge? It's beautiful.



[l008comm]

Stringfellow Hawk was flying that helicopter.

[Thetrutv]

I do this things all the time on BF3

[KGzII]

I was gonna land safely... but then I got high :)

[Warfreak57]

The Camera actually have a good framerate :) bad thing is humans cant see over 60 FPS

[btownmxer]

@Warfreak57 Really is the the reason we can see the fucking blades moving at the speed they really are?

[DJacKnifeAlpha]

Total badass.

[su30boy]

Used to do this lots when I worked for the BC Forrest Service and when Paragliding off the summit of the local mountains. Occasionally the local helicopter pilot woudd give us a lift, for a couple of bucks and he'd do a one skid landing while hovering ("hotload") and we'ed exit the aircraft. The trick is to move very slowly so as not to disturb the aircraft's center of gravity. This is very common in bush flying. So yup, this "btownmxer" guy is somewhat uninformed.

[expolosions2135125]

THAT is bad ass

[dkjayjay]

wow, what a pilot!!!

[Doamino41]

There is nothing fake or strange about this video,,,,just good stable flying.

[btownmxer]

Fake and Videoshopped....nice try though fucker

[Nikon05]

@btownmxer you're retarded

[TheSliekaStyle]

@btownmxer

Dude, you are an idiot! :D

[btownmxer]

@TheSliekaStyle Hook, line, and sinker. Uve been trolled haha

[menthol5]

the pilot knows how to fly the helicopter.

[spinninturbine]

Bit risky too risky for my liking.

[twogunz3083]

This what is called a pinnacle landing where the skids are balanced on top of a ledge or in this case two ledges. It is more common in mountain flying. In this case it worked well dropping off the dudes. It is a dangerous landing and very easy to screw up. The pilot has got to have some serious hours . A lesser or low hour pilot would have the skids dancing on the rails.

[SG1Andy]

hmm... hard to say if its fake or not. The Helicopter looks freaking realisitc. But he moves "unnatural"... There is no shaking and stuff, its just flying a straight line... thats strange

[flynmid]

@SG1Andy he just balanced a helicopter on a railing between trees, I don't think he's the kind of pilot who "shakes" around

[SG1Andy]

@flynmid Yeah, but the helicopter should have some "natural" movments... for me it looks a bit unnatural...

[flynmid]

@SG1Andy it's real trust me, there probably isn't any wind, so there's nothing to blow it around

[aquinoking777]

its not fake. the frames in the camera isnt good to capture how fast the roaders or whatever were spinning

[Pattii99]

That's what I call a Pilot!

[Shazzamnwithoutus]

@Pattii99 A stupid pilot, but a good, stupid pilot!

[jetbox47]

@Shazzamnwithoutus In what way is this stupid? You shouldn't comment on things you know absolutely nothing about. This is a safe, relatively routine operation for this type of flying...

[Shazzamnwithoutus]

@jetbox47 you mad?

[jetbox47]

@Shazzamnwithoutus not mad. just a pilot of the same type of helicopter doing the same type of work who has seen this over and over. it is routine and in no way unsafe when the px are properly trained. therefore i consider myself qualified to comment... nice job by this pilot.

[Shazzamnwithoutus]

@jetbox47 BTW, I don't know "absolutely nothing" about this sort of thing, I do know that helicopters are flying machines! durrr

[the1997beast]

@Shazzamnwithoutus This is what SAR pilots do for a living they know what they are doing

[Shazzamnwithoutus]

@the1997beast my dads a sar pilot, but I am oblivious to it

[innersilencedotcom]

like a BOSS

[LioNKortS]

must be fake

[JULIO26PR]

wtf???



[21CUVI]

hacker

[COMPUTERNERD02100]

Fake

[feldmuis]

car takes to long ill drop you off with helicopter ;)

[ZockerNewsGermany]

wwhere is the shaddow?!

[alexwantspizza]

@ZockerNewsGermany 0:29

[Dexi]

@ZockerNewsGermany - on the bridge? You don't see a shadow? Watch when it takes off.

[Theuf28]

@perhansen0093 dude lay down the pipe, its not for you anymore...

[Streichholz1600]

Planking like a Boss

[MrSEEGIE]

There some oroffesional gta glitches goin on here

[Embraer091]

H.O.L.Y --- C.R.A.P !.!.!.!

[EnragedPorkchop]

Fuck helipads, give me a stone railing anyday.

[MEGATRONYG]

Reminds me GTA :D

[StrongWing93]

Its called a "Tow In"

[spacinandy69]

Chuck norris can unscramble eggs..

[GalacticSystemBuster]

The rotor blades appear to spin slowly because of "Temporal Aliasing", which results from the limited frame rate of the video camera, and causes the wagon-wheel effect, whereby a spoked wheel or propeller appears to rotate too slowly or even backwards.

[d3u1d4e]

@GalacticSystemBuster Shannon-Nyquist sampling theorem

[Miroslanchev]

@GalacticSystemBuster Have you see the effect when the frames and and the rounds per minute match.... looks like rotor is not moving at all

[ROFEN91]

@GalacticSystemBuster its actually the shutter speed of the camera and not the framerate but i get what you mean ;)

[lokalllize]

he still has your pen

[floydfreak63]

Just once I'd like to watch a video of this type without some fucktard making a lameass chuck norris reference.

[Brolin555666]

not possible

[MrJonnara]

@Brolin555666 it is possible, the helicopter is still hovering 

[TheChickeneer]

@Brolin555666 Ive done this with my rc helecopter silly.

[Brolin555666]

@TheChickeneer prove it :) I want to see. If you prove it I´m gonna swalow all I´ve said. Fair

[TheChickeneer]

@Brolin555666 Ok, ill do that although my heli is a bit broken. (One of the landing skids fell off) I will still try though and post the video hopefully soon.

[Brolin555666]

Ok, I'll wait to see this video then. It's one of those things I need to see to believe:)

I already believe, but I want to see a best plan when he helicopter take off. Then I´ll admit that I´m rong

[BigBlue0002]

Mad "chopper" skills...

[z400rider08]

The camera is filming at around the same fps as the helicopters rotors are spinning.

[oceansdoor1]

I don't see how the chopper can get any lift. The top rotor isn't spinning very fast at 0:33 man

[killpath]

@oceansdoor1 Its moving so fast the cam can only see it moving slow

[O7ROADKING]

now that's a great pilot. Wow

[BoDiggety]

Chuck Norris practicing his bridge landing blindfolded again....showoff

[wayne11122000]

Some pilots are just that good. Well done!

[icodovahkiin]

Ummm...I think this is a fake helicopter,because the odds that he starts flying with so lame rotors are very small,But maybe it uses WEIGHT HAX?

[SuperSully2010]

it looks slow on cameras because its basically to fast for our normal pixel to catch cool landing.

[sinthetix1]

how come the rotor spins so slow? (trolling)

[freshlineproductions]

is this how Russians deliver mail?

[rotorguy3]

i would have turned it 90 degrees and sat it down on the bridge...looked much safer

[flyndublin]

i think that met the weight limit of the bridge. where was this heli Air Alaska???

[MrFingers1974]

i used to heli-drill, our pilots were among the best in the buisiness. that was nothing compared to the stuff we did. we were just smart enough not to record it and get our pilot fired. it saved a lot of hiking

[jocell202]

lol thats nothing, i jot picked up from a stump once on a windy day with 2 broken ribs lol.

[BarneySaysHi]

Talk about nerves of steel. Daaaaamn!

[momsbabyboy]

over 1.5 millionen view and no one happend to be a pilot to say if it possible or not. :(

[jocell202]

@momsbabyboy if you ever heli logged before you would know these things are done all the time, i used to rige the hook up the hill with no safty wire lol.

[O7ROADKING]

@momsbabyboy i fly RC helis and it can be done with those. there are a few army videos with the front of the heli over a cliff while guys load wounded in the back of the heli

[BrockAir]

I'd go ahead and say that's real. I've heard in logging areas where helicopters are used, landings like these can be quite regular occurances. Amazing piloting though.

[paintballisawsome]

to save time:malle1912 removed his comments lol.

[godsun5062]

@paintballisawsome so what did he said??

[Rangerpl1322]

@paintballisawsome Based on the replies to his comment, he most likely said this is fake because the rotors aren't spinning very fast (which actually has to do with camera shutter speed)

[momsbabyboy]

everyone that's belive this shit is real is dumb as fuck.

1. look at the rotor and keep in mind that's no highspeed cam.

2. just look at the mans shirt it's not moving or something although it's pretty loos.

3 and observe the branch movement, aint behaving like it's striked by a big ass wind. but i gotta give this motherfucker some props, still does look real though

[fizzyjennings]

@momsbabyboy Ever heard of matching frame rates to rotor blades? Who looks stupid now?

[momsbabyboy]

@fizzyjennings nah man never heard of 

[tomaj73111]

@momsbabyboy 1. most cameras can't catch the rotation of the rotor blades so it appears slow like that.

2. His shirt does move, look closer, he is also wearing suspenders so it wont move as much.

3. most of the wind is going over the side of the bridge, the only reason there is a "big ass wind" when there on the ground is that there is no where for the downdraft to go.

[momsbabyboy]

@tomaj73111 I gotta admit your explanations sounds pretty plausible but still i remain sceptical.

[tomaj73111]

@momsbabyboy I don't blame you, I would have been too.

[RasterGraph]

@momsbabyboy

LMFAO! Oh the irony here it is almost TOO much. You are the only dumb fuck here kid. Congratulations however, you are my new posterchild for fail.

The blades have synchronised with the camera's frame rate. Plenty of examples on the net of this.

[momsbabyboy]

@RasterGraph I'm your new posterchild what's that, do i have to give a speech???"I wanna thank ma moma, I wanna thank my daddy, I wanna thank youtube for posting all my comments". RasterGraph now shut the fuck up and go die or something.

[RasterGraph]

@momsbabyboy

As they say kid, "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen".

Retard Translation = Don't call others names if you cannot handle getting called them back.

Try reading more kid. No twilight fan-fiction does not count.

[momsbabyboy]

@RasterGraph sheeeeeeet how do you even came up with twilight^^, they are a lot of shitty books you could have mentioned, but no your gay ass just gotta remind me on that one. anyway let's stick to the topic i aint up for talking about my whole life with some strange drag queen on youtube. I don't believe that shit til anyone who happened to work with choppers confirms it's possible.

[momsbabyboy]

@RasterGraph I mean common we all saw tsunami videos, where choppers were not able to land on housetops... now out of a sudden i shall belive that the can land on rails, yeah i think i saw santa clause riding a past my window today.

[RasterGraph]

@momsbabyboy

There is a difference between landing and hovering.

[jocell202]

@momsbabyboy Never heli logged before have you lol, 

[dfeers]

@momsbabyboy

You are an idiot.

Helicopters do this stuff every day.

The rotor looks to spin slow because of the difference in capture tate between the camera and the actual rotation speed. a Bell 206 spins its rotors about 380 RPM Your clothes dont always move when you get out of a helicopter. The branch movement is fine

[Leviathan1775]

Its still hovering just using the rail for stability not fake just good pilot

[88TheGLEESON88]

fake and gay?

[MultiMrsmurf]

it ALMOST looks fake :L
