lol...real telly....I want that sort of kit Rob,but you didnt mention the camera on the Heli what a piece of kit that is,,puts the stuff i use for my videos to shame and i had to build the ligting ,sound,stedi mount and even the microphones..lol how about that for making do..
i just watched this episode of top trumps on demand five, and it cool cause he used that helichopter to fly over my home town Plymouth and film some of its best bit and i think he must have flown over my house
more trivai for you the guy who flew robert looked like the same guy who flew the helicopter in treasure hunt captain keith thompson . yes i am a total 80's tv nerd :-)
you forgot to point out one thing. you've got a proper camera and a proper sound guy and a proper camera man, but there is also a proper famous tv personality who is doing the youtube thing. that's what makes this cool!
TripTucker, that is a really kind thing to say. Thanks, as I read your post I was worrying, 'what's missing?' Then I got to the flattery. I know it means I'm shallow, but I appreciate it.
nah, that isn't shallow. by the way, I wouldn't have found you on youtube if you hadn't paid Leo Laporte a visit on TWiT Live recently. Just an interesting bit of information there. Hope to hear you on more of his podcasts at some point soon.
castle air , i remeber them from the 80's tv shows treasure hunt and interceptor . i hate the fact the only uk terestrial chanel that does'nt make ireland is channel 5 i would love to have seen that episode of top trumps !
Just spent a day going through all your videos as I am at the moment reading Sold Out and Punchbag (with sudden wealth sitting on the 'To read' part of my bookcase). I am very impressed Sir.
Really cool! Was this flight in some way connected to any work or show you are doing? or was it just for pleasure?
By the way, that pilot looked like someone not to be messed with. A man that could deflect even the best kryten joke with that steel face of his hehe.
I just spent a few days looking through all of your videos, Great stuff! Keep up the great work!
Do you really not know what Ashley's machine is until the filming of the "game" scenes? And likewise do you not know who's going to win, or is it all a big fix, as I suspect? :)

How many helicopter rides is this in total for you? I've only ever had one, and it was quite the rush for me. I think I'm more of an airplane man.

...I know of (not personally) one other guy who is a sound man that has one arm, and he also did the sound for Top Gear!
Rob - There's your chance to get a word in to appear on that show. Would love to see you go head to head with Jezza about the Prius! haha!
