EXTREME FLYING: Rakhmanin Pulls 10G In Detroit, Red Bull Air Race

[b3boneman]

Nice day for a hernia !!

[snaky172]

i like the part where he said "Hop"

[hayd112233]

@Gian092 they are inflatable. like a very very thin bouncy castle. if its hit it will just tear

[Gian092]

what happens if you touch or collide with one of these pylons?

[singhaization]

That's no human,It's called Superman

[xIIR4nd0mIIx]

Hop....Hop.....(nothing)......­Hop

[madzane94]

Is that much HOP HOPPin, cuz of G's even healthy?

Does these pilots have any effects long term =/ It doesn't look too comfortable LOL

[MrRolexYacht]

HOP.HOP.HOP.GOP.HOP.HOP.HOP.HO­P.HOP.HOP.HOP.HOP

[ounpug]

He needs apples.

[MrSpookify]

i want one of those!

[SkatingIsMyWayOfLife]

i make those noises when i'm talking a really big dump

[bryansouza]

@SkatingIsMyWayOfLife LMAO

[WeedIsGood4Y0u]

I want to try that LOL

[paxxnemesis]

hop¡¡¡¡

[thenmh]

He Came 

[m0skit0zindahouse]

pop

[divushkin]

ааааа, бляяяя!!!

aaaaa, blya!!!

[adamski895RS]

POP....POP......POP

[reycito20]

I give that guy mad props for that. With G's like that It takes soooooo much practice. That's good shit!!!

[imnazhole]

FUCK YEAH!!

[PCDominatorX]

Jesus, And people think formula 1 drivers have Balls.

[Ferrariman601]

@PCDominatorX I'm a huge F1 fan and there's no question that those guys are extremely talented, but these Red Bull Air Race guys are really something else. 11g in some maneuvers and speeds of up to 230 MPH? For some perspective, F1 drivers only experience 5g and that's only under heavy braking, and they downsized the engines from V-10s to V-8s because they thought 230 MPH was too fast.

[petrokemikal]

balls made of concrete,,

Humans my arse !!!

[originalMOON3R]

fuckin fast

[TeddyandRoyce]

every time he went through the cons he said apple

[Fred57791207]

@TeddyandRoyce, no it isn't apple he said he said just app and popp, or something

[Geistero]

@TeddyandRoyce he says "up", it's a Russian interjection that suits here to express the counting of an action or drive to act. It comes from the French "allez --- up" that is used eg. in circus.

[Superegio42]

No wonder Top Gun is a classic in the minds of lesser beings...

[stockshunter]

@ 1.27, i, momentarily thought the worst happened. Thank god

[ChewySatisfaction]

Im blown away by how responsive and snappy the plane is. Quality stuff.

[ralekriver]

What an INCREDIBLE machine! In the motorcycle world, we call the ease in which we can roll a bike into a turn 'flickability,' or the ability to quickly 'flick' a bike into a lean and turn. I'm sure it pales in comparison with the ability of that plane to spin!

What is the pilot saying as he is taking turns? My guess is that it's more or less a 'kiai', (pronounced key - eye, a shout emitted as a breathing exercise to maximize power and/or control in martial arts) but am I right? :)

[justinmburrous]

The sound he is most likely very similar to a kiai but the breathing would be so that he can tense his leg mussels because at 10 g's all the blood rushed to your feet (away from your heart/head) and you can lose consciousness

[LizardSC]

try to fast breath out (exhale) and u get sound similar to "hop"

and 0:12 is sounds like rude word :)

i think he missed "hop" %)

[RFTAEC100]

No its not Kiai... its ITAI! japanese for: IT FU&ing HURTS TU PULL SO MANY G's!!!!!!! hahaha

These pilots are awsome!

[ydyammo]

The sound is a kiai of sorts...

It's a sound that helps the pilot focus and press all his stomach-muscles, thus forcing blood up into the brain. Without which the pilot would go unconscious from lack of oxygen in his brain.

I'ts not quite, but not entirely un-like taking a heavy dump.. ;)

[Nasty0suicide]

Amazing

[kamikazeboy123]

man tiz is scary.wat if he hits those poles?

[Snoopee9]

nothing will happen the poles are soft ..think made of plastic or paper

[donieking]

the answer is this:

/watch?v=hH0OaGc_128

[houdiinii]

the poles are made of some kind of plasticfoil which is filled with air. He can kind of cut them into pieces with his wingtips, without crashing the plane.

[pcsbyte]

Amazing Skills.

[pcsbyte]

Fuckin A

[MrSolid95]

I bet he shit his pants..nicevid

[DrSteezie]

Its deffinately real because I HAVE WATCHED THEM in windsor ontario... so if u still dont believe it go fucking watch them in person

[Svittidiu]

G-forces will damage your body in the most devious of ways.

[jnjoblon]

Wow that was bad ass, never seen it from this perspective. Cool vid

[liamcollister]

nope, they do avg about 200mph on the "tracks"

[gonzotheincredible]

those races look insanely fun to watch... must b a different high in the cockpit tho.

[frena323]

looks fake....is almost imposible

[liamcollister]

How the fuck is it fake you twat.... it is a televised sport that thousands of people watch live around the rivers the sport takes place on....

[frena323]

yes, i did my research and yeah, is not fake... but cant be real ¡¡¡ man, is too fucking fast

[p3rs0n42]

well red bull air racing is a very popular, live televised sport.

There's nothing fake there, just a lot of fuckin gutsy pilots

[frena323]

yes, i know ¡¡ but in my country is not popular...

[Expl0rati0n]

Man this has to be one of the most dangerous ways to race ever.

[pretty00lights]

u can tell he loves that shit..... davai sergei!!! molodets!

[Ben123planes]

no I mean 0:16

[Ben123planes]

at 0:20 uuuuuuupoooooo!

[PolxenTwo]

Na it was 20

[rossesc]

hup up hup hup up up pup pup!

[pilothilco]

i was there on sunday...it was awesome...definetly way better in real life than t.v

[CanadianWorkDivers]

So, Did anyone go see the race this afternoon in Windsor? We watched em' take off and land from the airport! Freakin' Sweet!!

[catstuffer]

did he die?

[buddyguy340]

it sounds like someone is giving him surprise buttsecks

[ghostdude123456]

If surprise buttsex is in the brain, your brain is about 3lbs=1g

10g=30lbs.

So he's feeling 30 pounds of dicks in his head right now.

[shadddey5]

i've seen 11 and...nothing

[turboman1010]

no they have contest to see who can pull the most g's

[madyville]

this guy needs some water ...gr8 job !!

[lowIQ04]

can u help me cause why to they breath like that hop hap!

[ghostofrazgriz1]

its a breathing technique to help prevent the pilot from blacking out, USAF fighter pilots use something similar, called the "hic" maneuver (sound like hiccups)

[pimen27]

wow.. it sound so scary to me, but pilot are the best thing in this world!

[machineman9]

That is some fairly aggresive flying there. Only done around 5g myself, and that wasn't for very long. These guys are doing way more, more often and for longer... That deserves respect.

[BlastedNation]

I just wanna say this, this vid in HD...holy GIFT!

[EnaAngie]

hop...aaaapfff..hopf...aaaa...­hop..

[satanspoet]

Rare to see onboard footage unedited for TV - thanks for posting! Interesting to hear the different G-straining from pilot to pilot..

[helipilot727]

These are some incredible pilots, no doubt about that!

[Blacksheep02102]

Remember the Red Bull Air Race in Berlin 2006, Peter Besenyei pull 13.8 Gs there!!!

[arturcraft2]

@Blacksheep02102

do you have that video to share? ;-)

[atthecrux]

That's why he's grunting. Pilots do this to force more blood to the brain to avoid blacking out.

[Rowenoct27]

10 G's or not, its still way cool.

[ShamrockLAX12]

what is he saying???

[Redeemedsinner17]

He's not saying anything it's how Air race pilots and Fighter pilots breath. He's also grunting from the strain of Gs

[Redeemedsinner17]

I think

[Perrybystorm]

looks so fun.

[AllMuscle1]

Correction: blush is blood. Sorry about that.

[AllMuscle1]

Not that I'm about to discount you, but an F-16 traveling at just under Mach 2 pulls only 9 G's. The pilot has to wear a special jump suit so that she or he doesn't black out due to the rush of blush from the head to the feet. The jet was designed with special computer systems that take over when this happens. Thus, I don't see how a propeller-driven craft making less than 120 degree turns can do such a thing. If you can prove it, it'd be astonishing. Good video anyhow.

[skydivingpipo]

I'm not a scientist, but they make more than 120 degree turns. Through Quadro 270°, half cuban eight is a 180° turn. I assume that flying approx. 150 mph (average) through these gates results in 10 g, don't you think?

[msgotu]

According to some sources, 10G is pretty common, and I've heard they sometimes hit up to 12G. And there's fairly high negative Gs too. They lift weights with their necks just to be able to build enough muscle to keep their head up. Russian MIG pilots came up with methods of clenching large muscle groups for preventing blackout that don't require special suits.

[Jellolion1]

the first time I flew high G's as a passenger in a sailplane doing aerobatics, I felt myself passing out, things start getting dark, and your field of vision starts to shrink. I immediately clenched my leg muscles and upper body muscles and this keeps the blood from dropping. It is more or less a natural reaction. I knew nothing about withstanding high-G's before this flight. It is an extreme workout. 90 degree banks, in a tight radius, at 200 mph, definitely very high G's.

[Yperanthropoidsx]

Passengers tend to get experience G more than the pilot does. Becuase it is the pilot who's flying the airplane, he would be prepared for any manuever he's gonna do. Same pincieple is applied to in a car or in a ship.

[marshmellow377]

I started off doing Aerobatics in gliders, now moving on to powered, but i know what you mean, doing a canopy up humpty is worse when your the passenger :)

[Jellolion1]

I did the opposite, I started with power, then moved to gliders. That was not a good idea. Now I am struggling to unlearn all of my power bad habits.

[arturcraft2]

@Jellolion1

how much tight?

[o0oo00ooliii]

haha, yes, i was just about to argue him saying 10 G's. no way that is possible in a propellor plane.

[ATFSCrash]

Pulling G's as much more to do with the structural design of aircraft than the power plant. Some of you obviously have no clue what you're talking about. As in this video there are many propeller aircraft that are rated to pull more G's than even the F-16.

[dwruddock]

I am not a scientist, but I am a pilot. I don't go pulling excessive G's in my cessna but I do have some education towards the matter. Don't confuse the speed that a jet produces with the ability to produce G's. They have nothing to do with each other. High G's can be achieved in any acrobatic aircraft at any range of speeds as long as the airframe is made to withhold the pressures and relative wind changes. G's are produce by the "rate" of turn not the speed of the aircraft.

[ATFSCrash]

My apologiesAllMuscle1. My comment about having no clue what you're talking about was not meant to be directed at you, it was meant to be directed toward the arrogant people that deny it was 10 Gs.

Your line of thinking is intelligent and within reason, and you sound open-minded on this matter.

[ATFSCrash]

AllMuscle1: You have a healthy degree of skepticism, your logic is good, and your knowledge is pretty good.

I can't say for sure how many gees are being pulled in this video, but I can say that 10 G is well within reason , most of these aerobatic race aircraft are designed to handle more than 10 G in this type of race. In this type of race it is not a rare occurrence to exceed 10 G, for a short duration.

[Icachowda]

holy moly man....

[Vekin86]

Hollyy crap.

[poserlooser]

holy crap, that is AWESOME. This makes me want to get my pilot's license so bad.

[JDKmedeng]

10 times your weight -> 200 lbs x 10 = 2000 OMG

[skydivingpipo]

i heard, as of now they are allowed to pull 12 Gs. Looking forward to seeing some funny gravity-distorted faces in rotterdam :)

[xiongsta00]

that would suck if he crashed.

[Siua1]

frickin sweet

[antoni05]

cant wait til i get my incentive ride

[2slow2furious]

how do you still have blood flowing in your head?

[schultzee101]

HOLD YOUR BREEEEEATH.... and flex your stomach.. haha

atleast thats what i was tought

[ATFSCrash]

The G straining maneuver; is the way to increase a person's tolerance to Gs. Staying conscious for a second or two is usually fairly easy as it takes a little while for the blood drain from the head. It is substantially more difficult and challenging to sustain high Gs for several seconds.

[ATFSCrash]

I have some clips of some centrifuge training for Gs. There is an example of a student that shows massive improvement after he blacks out and is given 10 minutes of instruction. It also shows an individual that has an almost superhuman tolerance to G.

GLOC Centrifuge Training

[MaxAgond]

That's intense, whew.

[peorsna]

jmwd. You need to get out more

[jmwd]

Is a game you morons. Pilot training in a room! You got owned!

[cet1217]

He is a DAMN good pilot.

[rachis83]

i think he drank red bull before the flight

[NkSaunders]

gave him wings lol

[JamalB86]

daaaammn, 10gs! that Immelmann looked fun!!!

[VolanteDB5]

wheres the g gauge that they usually show??

[imtang0708]

10 G MY ASS!

[aymric]

He was probably quite close. Those little planes pull some serious G's in hard turns.  Do some research.

[AngryLlamaz]

lol owned!!!11!111```

[imtang0708]

I was there!

[rstarfifteen]

But were you IN there!?

[ATFSCrash]

So we are supposed to believe that you are an authority just because you allege you were there? You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. I question if you were even there, since you have proven you have no credibility. From this video I see no way of being able to prove how many Gs he was pulling. However it is common knowledge among aviation aficionados that 10Gs in a red bull is not uncommon.

[bhfam]

OMG THATS FAST!!!
