  • red arrows would woop there arse into next week ;)

  • Great video

  • Soooo impressive! What a better flightline than across SF bay, with Alcatraz in the backdrop? Awesome!

  • to be a blue angle has to be the best roller coaster ride in the world . no rails only rank.

  • Excelente video !!!

  • Best Blue Angels video I've seen.. Great camera-work!

  • im a canadian living in canada. i dont have the privilage of seeing these guys preform. but watching this video makes me happy in a way only jets, and women can do

  • 4:13 - remotely controlled flip! no fckn way they did that themselves!

  • Hornet, they're 1,2,3,7 because #7 is a two-seater. Allows them to take next year's boss and other newbie team members up for training purposes. #7 is also used as a back-up for other planes having mechanical issues. Wittman, beautiful footage! Nice work.

  • Your videos are the best!!! Thanks for sharing. This is badass!!!

  • Is this cool or lame

  • at 5:45 it was # 1 2 3 7 ? wtf !

  • its 4ft

    

  • God they are So amazing!! so perfect formation

    

  • The best of the best!!!!!

  • 18 inches my ass, more like 3 feet

  • I was there 09, will be there this year. The sound in real life is undiscribable. Just kick ass power and mad skills.

  • I saw the Blue Angels fly in San Diego at Miramar NAS back in '91. I almost got in a damn accident watching them practice while I was driving down the highway. LOL I'd pay good money to ride in one of these babies someday.

  • Wicked.

  • great video, good quality...

  • went to go see then plans then went to a concert best day ever

  • What lens are you shooting with?

  • Who's the dipstick that disliked this video?

  • What sort of camera ?

  • why was number 7 in number 4s spot ?

  • @JP4MW and why was number 4 in number 6s spot ?

  • damn their flying close to each other, those are some skilled pilots

  • So happy to have been in san francisco to see this fantastic airshow. Puts the airshows here in australia to shame. Cant wait to come back, i love san fran :)

  • Please tell me what kind of camera u use?

  • Excellent Video!

  • Für meine BB, damit sie ihren San Fran Aufenthalt super geniessen möge!

  • これは航空祭みたいなやつですか?

  • Mate !! You must be a wizz on that camera .... That is some of the best footage I have seen .. Would you beleive We were on holidays from Australia in San Fran and missed this show by one day ... Really Pi#$ed off when I found out because I have always been amazed by these guys and often watch them on you tube..Thanks for posting this amazing peice of camera work ... Look at other footage and than you will be proud on what you have done !!!! GREAT JOB !!

  • Looks like I was sitting right beside ya! I was at the end of Yacht Rd. as well. Very nice video quality as well.

  • Excellent! You're the best of all guys recording the blue angels that weekend in San Francisco! Awesome video! I also was in SF on 10/8-10/11, have seen it in front of the closed gate of the municipal pier (end of Van Ness Ave). Your perfect video nearly is better than watching it live, perhaps except sound, live of course unbeatable ;-) Was a great weekend! CU 2011. Do you live in SF?

  • why is no. 7 flying as slot? were there 3 solos??

  • @ray274 The #4 Jet was having maintenance done so #4 flew the #7 Jet instead.

  • @coolyo366 oh thanks. I thougth it was for the media

  • @coolyo366 no wait. you can see no. 4 at 2:41

  • @ray274 number 6 must have had maintenance

  • that Submarine that was docked i paid $20 to look inside and i heard a roar of the F/A-18 then saw the paint of the Blue Angels!!!

  • Those angels are beautiful...amazing piloting and maneuvering skills

  • I rather see the F/A 18? and the F-22 Raptor and F-16 anyday than them B-A...

  • @mongyaj Yeah, because planes fly themselves... It's about piloting skill, not the aircraft. And they fly F/A-18.

    @wittmann51 Amazing video. Well done.

  • Very nice video! The show, as always, was Awesome.

  • Great video, but I might suggest that it could have done with more local context. Fleet Week SF is great because of the location, but other than the glorious opening shot through the Golden Gate Bridge, the SF scenery hardly features at all. While technically brilliant, this video could almost have been shot anywhere. If I had your skills and equipment, I might take them to Inspiration Point in the Presidio and shoot the planes from a little further away but with the bay and city as a backdrop.

  • OH MAN! I can't imagine the G's they are pulling in some of those turns!

  • @stinker43 Keep in mind that BA pilots do not wear G-suits during these shows (not sure why?) so the turns would have to be at a min. I believe a BA pilot died after blacking out at practice, a few years ago.

  • I was at SFO and watched them take off and land. Alas, I didn't shoot video, I was shooting stills. It might be a blast to have a few of enthusiasts coordinate an amateur video of the blue angels during next year's 2011 Fleet Week. Many cameras rolling from various locations with the audio of the event as a part of the video. Any one up for it?

  • awesome video. Thx so much for sharing. Wish i could have been there.

  • This is some GREAT video.

  • But what kind of camera where you using?

  • Great video. I was in SF on 10/9 and took some video but your video far exceeds mine. I was at the end of Yacht Road. I guess it depends on your location, camera and skills.... where were you located? What kind of camera were you using?

  • @MerkOnVideo

    I was also at the end of the road.

  • The time stamp of the video is from last Thursday. Did you film this last Thursday? But I thought they didn't start practicing until Friday. Anyway, the close ups look great.

  • Great job on this kick ass video. Where on the waterfront were u filming from?

  • @21mexirish

    at the yacht Rd.

  • Amazing video, I was yesterday in San Francisco great performance of Blue Angels, I liked this video.

  • boring.... except u sit in there

  • OMG. That show was amazing. I'm so ready for next year. Visiting the ships was very nice

  • OFF THE CHART!!!... The Jets were amazing. The video you shot was outstanding..

    Great Job!!!

  • Great video! They're unbelievable, as always. Sneak pass is hard to get. I"ve tried for several years and always seem it after the pass. Thanks for sharing.

  • what lense are you using?

  • Great video! It really captured the day, my boys loved it!

    And who WASN'T caught by surprise by the sneak pass?

  • Blue Angel #5 made you look foolish at 11:25 because you weren't paying attention to the sneak pass. Try again on Saturday or Sunday. Great footage otherwise. I saw them last weekend in San Diego.

  • Where are you filming from?

  • @zeitzeph

    at the yacht Rd.

  • I LOVE FLEET WEEK!
