  • this pilot is a hero !

  • WE LOVE Chesley B. Sullenberger <3

  • CLEARELY SUICIDE GEESE TRAINED BY THE TALIBAN

  • Whoever calls this a conspiracy is definitely a simple minded fuck, they clearly say a flock of geese hit the engine, now how they could have planned for geese to hit BOTH engines is beyond me. It just isn't a planned subject. I love people like this, this pilot was a hero, he saved over 200 people's lives and remained calm. for that i salute him.

  • Go Purdue... more astronauts and the best pilots in the world.

  • U.S. Air Force Pilot!

  • wow steep take off

  • nice

  • This man was originally a glider pilot. For those of you who don't know, gliders are engineless aircraft- usually only one or two seaters- that use rising columns of air to stay aloft for up to six hours straight. I myself am a licensed glider pilot, and this man here is a real inspiration. If he weren't used to landing without engines, who knows what might have happened. Personally I fly a schempp hirth discus cs. I can't imagine trying to land one of those huge things.

  • @lakai326 His glider experience had nothing to do with it. If you read Captain Sullenberger's book "Highest Duty" he states in that book that many people believed that was why he was able to do this. He states this partially to the contrary. However he also states(and as a glider pilot I know you know this to be true) that the A320 he was piloting is FAR heavier than a glider. His discipline from the military and his experience as a pilot helped him land this plane safely in the Hudson.

  • @joke312 My parade= rained on D:

  • @lakai326 Not intended. Haha. I was just stating what he stated. 

  • Anyone who thinks the radio transmissions are false is obviously moron. conspiracy? you should get the fat sucked out of your head

  • GO SULLY!!!!

  • this actually happened

  • Amazing Pilot

  • STFU dont even start with conspiracies!

  • Nice video, even thought the timing is off. It's just good animation showing what happened. I like integrating the picture at the end. It was a happy ending.

  • oh my gosh. amazing how calm they all are in the face of near-death and catastrophe. but i guess that's what they're trained for!!

  • yes

  • all the passengers are save ??

  • Yes, everyone survived, just afew minor injuries!!!

  • I didn't know that planes could float on water

  • where's Shelley Winters?

  • The guy who made this has made a fatal mistake. The flight was 5 minutes from take off to landing. He's timed everything around the radio transmissions made available.

    THE RADIO TRANSMISSIONS WERE EDITED so as not to bore people with lots of silence. .This makes this entire animations FALSE & and an incorrect documentation of a history.l

  • Amazing???? the idiot just can't seem to realise the reality of it all, the traffic controller is acting like the pilots got all the time in the world...which runway would you like.....ha ha.....no engines how far does he think he can go then!!!!!! Good effort with the video sim though.

  • Are those the actual radio exchanges?

  • that was amazing!

  • I really like this video! I'm sure you really put a lot of effort into making it and it really does show. Nice work! Upload some more if you can!

  • lol just walking around on the wing

  • who built this and with what software??

  • WOW amazing video!

  • This is really great. Thx for this.

  • There are still a few Hero's left. Nice work sir.

  • Amen. And even worse, there are only a few people left who recognize who the true heroes are...

  • last photo is blood chilling, knowing that all these souls could have suffered and died

    glad that didn't happen :)

  • First class in the raft, coach on the wing.

  • This was very well done. Gives us all a look at what what it really looked like. Or as close as anyone can get. The pilot was so pro! 5*

  • Sully deserves every penny he makes and then some. Great work sir.

  • cool,it all happened pretty quick, good animation

  • I think it was a bit longer. It left at 3:26 and landed at 3:31.

  • Who ever landed in that plain that was a guy got a lot of chicks I bet. "Hey I was in the plain that went in the river in New York"...

  • Wow -- gives you a great sense of how little time there was, and how calm the pilot was.

  • Wow. Talk about strength, courage and making decisions on the spot. I agree he saved everyone's life doing this.

    "We're going to be in the Hudson"

    - pilot's last reply before he lands in the Hudson river

  • extremely good video, i like how everything was synched with the visual effects and audio.

  • The pilot sounded really calm - the key to making intelligent decision and prosecuting in time of chaos is being calm and focused.

  • wow. bravo.

  • Comment removed

  • f*ing ATC..."uh, 1549, you also got newark airport off your 2 o'clock in about 7 miles..."

    "uh, we're in the f*ing hudson, dillweed...thx anyway"

  • Incredible. Ending with the Twitpic = priceless.

  • Amazing.
