  • Thank goodness! Instead of experiencing fatal g-forces from impacting the ground, he experienced an almost identical amount by being caught a few feet above it!

    I love comic book physics. :D

  • And thus is the moment where superman saved the Earth from crashing into Batman

  • BATMAN CAN GLIDE!!!!!!

    WHY CANT WRITERS PUT THERE

  • @AgentNinja99 Great for jumping off buildings. Not so great from a plane altitude where his exploding ejector seat has kinda added to the force of his fall. B

    Plus if Batman didn't do it, I have faith that it wouldn't work. XD

  • @AgentNinja99 I think Batman just likes to screw with Superman.

  • I have a top comment?! I FEEL LIKE I WON AN OSCAR!

  • I guess he forgot to install a parachute in his ejector kit.

  • @doctorfeelucky I'm sure it was part of the ejector seat, but that got blown up.

  • uhh Bats you know you can use your cape to glide right?

  • during that whole fall I couldn't stop thinking about the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

    "Ahhh! What's happening?! And what's this thing coming towards me very fast? Maybe it'll be friends with me..." lol

  • Guys, get it straight. Batman's cape couldn't have helped him at that point. You try opening up a glider cape while falling at that speed straight down. And anyway, the only Batman who could actually fly was Terry McGunnies (I know I spelled it wrong) a.k.a. Batman Beyond.

  • Try gliding going 300 miles an hour strait to your certain doom.

  • wtf? batman has cape, it's not like he can't glide.

  • It's cool but why didn't use your cape, Batman?!

  • @Spectre9X Batman's cape doesn't serve very well as a glider in this incarnation. It would slow him down, but it wouldn't save him.

  • @DarthKain0 Arkham City fooled us...

  • @Spectre9X Nope, it's just written differently. Batman has different gadgets and tricks depending on which incarnation of him is being shown. Sometimes he just has a rope and his wits.

  • So you can breath in space but you can't fly? I'm very dissapointed of you, Batman

  • Comment removed

  • It is very hard to understand the complex psychology of this character.First of all he CAN FLY.He create wings from the hardened material of his cape.Second this scene was peculiar.He didnt even blink in the face of death.Was he that sure someone will save him?Is he a prophet, a tactical genius or simply has great faith in his comoanions's punctuality?Or simply he doesn't care about dying at all because he has been dead since 9 years of age?Very complex character.

  • @NEMESIS1999 ET. ALL: IT'S JUSTICE LEAGUE, NOT BATMAN CANON. SHIT CHANGES BETWEEN DIFFERENT SERIES.

  • @hybridchemistry I agree. In this animated incarnation, I don't think he can fly with the wings from his cape...he can glide, but not fly.

  • @hybridchemistry Actually, Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League and Batman Beyond all tie into an official DC Animated Universe. Word of God.

  • @BamfIsAwesome canon: the body of rules, principles, or standards accepted as axiomatic and universally binding in a field of study or art: the neoclassical canon.

    Let me try to explain some more. I meant that just because he can glide and fly and sing in one series doesn't necessarily mean he can do it in ALL series. Now, the fact that his parents died when he was young, his 'symbol' is a bat, that is true for ALL series. That is canon

  • @hybridchemistry Thank you, but I do understand canon. There is a universal canon for all Batman's incarnations, but these series actively tie into one another, newer ones frequently reference older ones-- there is a legitimate DC Animated canon, which all of the aforementioned are a part of, done purposely by those who created each of these series. I understand where you're coming from; the more recent 'The Batman' animated series is not a part of DCAU and has many differences.

  • @hybridchemistry That is what the other guy was saying. In the DC Animated Universe, Bruce Wayne Batman cannot fly without a jetpack....You are correct...

  • @hybridchemistry Lol, canon in the comic book universe. What will you crazy kids think up next.

  • @hybridchemistry LOL sing. I loved that episode.

  • @BamfIsAwesome It's true, this guy is right --^

  • @nabtab Um... which guy is right? Now I'm confused. Do you mean hybridchemistry or Vjad1234 or what?

  • @hybridchemistry actually they are in the same cannon

  • @NEMESIS1999 He's Batman.

  • @NEMESIS1999 the mission is the mission tats what he would day to tat lol

  • @NEMESIS1999 He does trust the Justice League an awful lot, but at the same time, he gives off the impression that after all his years as Batman, he's just given up caring in situations like these.

  • @NEMESIS1999 DCAU's Batman can't glide with his cape. I think he has a jetpack or something, but it gets wrecked every fucking time he uses it, which isn't very often in the first place (honestly, I only remember him using it when he first met Superman, before Justice League takes place). As for death, Batman probably doesn't fear death, but he does have immense faith in his companions. Stressing the point at the end there is the closest thing to genuine worry he'll show.

  • @TheVivvav actually in Batman TAS he did use his cape to glide a few times (once looked like he actually flew)

  • @NEMESIS1999 He's batman thats why he's calm

  • @NEMESIS1999 8 years actually..

  • @NEMESIS1999 He GLIDES. Not flies. If he's falling from a great height, he can't just open his cape and save himself like Terry could in Beyond. He has to be leaping off a platform. PHYSICS. Note that in all situations where he has fallen from a great height, he uses the Grapple to cling to a ledge and save himself. NOT open his cape

  • Atom: Is that Batman?

    Batman: What are you dense? Are you retarded or something?

  • why didnt he just use one of those grapple guns of his to swing to safety?

  • cant he like ... glide or something?

  • @matejdurosi123 at that speed? douptful

  • @LordManda2 yeah, but he could like spread his cape , like he does and slowly pull back to the sky ... bad i've been playing too much Arkham City x)

  • I'd probably have said, "OH, SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIII..." *SPLAT!!!*

  • (Batman free falling) Batman: this has to happen to me a 100 times a day. Today I have no buildings. This is total horse-shit.

  • Ooh Kay superman needs pockets or something.

  • Why didn't he just use his cape to glide like he does in countless other episodes -_-

  • @vivi44 There are many corny moments where they show how batman can't take on a simple female enemey, let alone a male one. This is bs to begin w/. Batman doesn't need anyone's help. He is batman. 'Nough said. XD

  • @vivi44 Cause gliding doesn't stop falling

  • @racerabbit93 It does slow him down, though, so he could have used that. The only problem being that they had to keep moving, and Superman WAS at that height down there. Sure, it destroys physics, but so?

  • 0:21

    I'm going to escape from this plane. But before I go, Fuck you, and you and you-

  • It looks like Cerberus mechs are attacking Batman.

  • @MephistoXIV IM Commander Sherpard, and this is my favorite detective in the Citadel.

  • batman culda saved himself >_>

  • i batman is falling at a approsimate speed of 100m/s, superman tries to catch him by reaching out two arms of steel, since there is no space for superman to decelorate as batman was two feet off the ground, the laws of physics clearly states that batman would be sliced into 3 pieces

  • @paxis2 WHO CARES? HE'S THE GODDAMN BATMAN!!!

  • @paxis2 wow not like you didnt steal that from the big bang theory

  • @paxis2 Just close your eyes and repeat after me: This is a cartoon. Based off of comic books. The laws of physics do no apply, because there is a man who can both alter his mass and shrink, and people who can fly, and super-strength somehow means they can still catch planes without tearing through them.

  • @paxis2 oorr superman accelerates to the exact same speed of batman and changes the momentum to a new direction...without creating any splatter

  • @icedagger5 good one...

  • @paxis2 But he's Batman.

  • Batman was hoping Wonderwoman would save him instead of Superman.

    That's why he didn't save himself.

  • @TheOriginal3P

    It's BATMAN. He had a back up plan I'm sure.

  • He must be thinking: Hm....Today is Wednesday, falling down from thousand feets above the ground. Good, all according my plans~

  • He doesn't use the cape to glide because it would probably tear from that height.

    That or he just doesn't plain have it/hasn't developed it at the time of JL.

  • he should have a parachute...

  • He doesn't need to fly, he can fall in style.

  • ...Can't he glide with his cape?

  • omg duh batman cant fly but he CAN glide

  • "Find Wonder Woman and get us down."

    "You know, a 'please' would be nice."

  • wow just sooo calm of corse it was going to be superman daaaamn adam must going crazy inside his ear while superman is going supersonic or faster. awesome vid thats y i need to get this whoooole show.

  • Superman saved the earth from crashing into batman

  • @0KAIndigo0 xD oh damn that was the funniest batman joke i herd yet

  • @0KAIndigo0 Man, what HASN'T Superman saved the earth from yet? :)

  • Sounds like Atom says

    "Is that Fatman?"

  • WHY DIDNT HE JUST USE HIS CAPE TO GLIDE......like u kno, in the comics? or even in games like arkham asylum and arkham city?

  • @crysis1234567 He left that particular cape home that day.

  • @crysis1234567

    with that height, the cape wouldn't hold very well....

  • He's not flying. He's falling with style.

  • @heroepato That was awesome

  • Batman can't fly. But he can breathe in space. Google it.

  • How do you know the Dark Heart sent attack those attack dogs as kamikaze fighters?

    The Dark Heart sent them after Batman.

  • i just have to say, this clip doesn't show that batman couldn't save him self. It shows that he didn't save himself. And that is the fact.

  • Superman is man pretending to be God, while BATMAN is God trapped in human form.

  • Maybe he didn't add the cape gliding function to his cape till Arkham City.....

  • Actually... HE CAN FLY... (Said like Buzz lightyear)

    Play "batman Arkham City" You'll see he CAN fly!

  • 7 people cant fly..........at all

  • @busterboymike I believe that is can fly who need a super power any way

  • @busterboymike ....and Superman didn't save them. :)

  • Lol. That is so cool

  • I thought the button said "candy" at first

  • "Now would be good." Lampshading when would be the best time for a rescue if it were a t.v. show.

  • "Hey. J'onn. Buddy. See, these robots were jealous of my awesomeness and shot down the Batwing, and now I'm falling out of the sky. Could you be a dear and send one of my man-servants to pick me up? Which one? Hmmm. Let's see. Uh...how about the Kryptonian? The bitch probably has nothing better to do. So yeah, okay. So send him over to pick me up? Great. Oh no, no, tell him to take his time. I don't want any accidents to happen. Cool. Thanks. Bye."

    *BATGLAREBATGLAREBATGLAREBATGL­ARE*

  • "...Now would be good. But if you guys are busy, don't worry, I got 10 other backup plans. And another 10 backup plans for each of those backup plans. And I can probably think of 3-4 more in the next couple of seconds. But just if anyone is close by, feel free to come. And someone tell Alfred that I'l probably be late to dinner tonight so he should just keep the food in the microwave and i'll just heat it up when i get home. Thanks."

  • @QwerV2009 Your comment got progressively funnier, please all of my money! xD

  • @QwerV2009 I read this in batman's voice. His calm voice.

  • the way he talks when he free falls to impending doom - he's got the psych of an air force test pilot

  • Batman doesnt flive, he falls with STYLE! :D

  • Um, where's his parachute? Then again, Batman's so cool he doesn't need a parachute.

  • @janeyrevanescence12 He had one. That dog robot blew it up.

  • batman should create a suit that can help him fly...i mean he IS a BAT~

  • Whatever, he probably had like 300 back up plans to use if Superman hadn't shown up.

  • "Now would be good. But if your too busy I'll just beat the crap out of the laws of physics until you have a spare moment."

  • what about his cape doesn't it make him glide??

  • @Xxrr23 I guess he didn't wear a cape with built-in glider capability because a parachute would open when he ejected from the batwing. But because the robots shot at the parachute and it exploded he had no way of decreasing his acceleration when falling.

  • @Quatrus Right, because his Glider cape is reinforced with metal rods so it holds its shape.

  • @Xxrr23 that was only in the recent live action films, the original batman cape was just a cape

  • Comment removed

  • I don't even know why batman even HAS sidekicks.

  • Soundwave: "EXCELLENT, RAVAGE!"

  • That's not flying, that's falling with style!

  • You know, he does have a cape that dampens his speed...

    he could've relied less on superman if he wanted to

    he just felt sorry for superman's insecure ass

  • "Since I can't fly. At all. Now would be good."

    And he points his body straight down, falling as fast as possible. Dude's got balls.

  • @PerryPlanet and bitches! Can't forget the bitches!

  • Who needs flying when you have a man servant (or Kryptonian servant, whatever) to do it for you? =P

  • I love how calm he is the whole time.

    "now would be good."

  • Batman can't fly. He does, however, look awesome while not doing it.

  • Superman:*catches Batman* What no thank you?

    Batman: No, because I'm the GODDAMN BATMAN

  • Duh. But I'll watch this video anyway.

  • bear grylls and chuck jorris dont have shit on batman

  • Superman: God created me to be super.

    Batman: No, I created you to be my bitch.

  • @TheLastRainShadow funny how he needed his "bitch" to save his ass.

  • @farizzal He had a plan if he didn't.

  • @Craydon lol yea, ok, anti-gravity belt? please.

  • @farizzal Batman could get himself a Nth metal belt, yes. If superboy can shatter reality with his fist Batman can fight his way out of hell.

  • @Craydon I'm not talking about hell, im talking about this clip. Batman needed Superman to save him, otherwise he wouldn't have called him.

  • @farizzal If Batman can kick a tree in half I have to believe he's really good at tuck and rolling. He could also know a spell or some other way to get out of this he'd rather ask than use.

  • @Craydon yea but when you are falling more than 20 feet tuck and rolling wont save you, especially at the velocity he was traveling at. Are you kidding me dude. Batman knows magic now? oooook.

  • @farizzal At the point in his life this clip is from he's seen just about everything, so magic's not off the table. Dude kicked a tree in half with a non-super powered leg(no magic either), I wouldn't put it past him to be able to survive this. But look at the way he's falling, he's not even trying to slow down because he knows someone is coming for him. That's confidence man.

  • @Craydon I think it is off the table, the secrets of magic aren't available to Batman. And yea, that was in Year One. A bit ridiculous. Batman comics and movies always make him a little more than human, they have to, otherwise a real human would get slaughtered, no matter how much training they had. Yea, I would have confidence too if I knew Superman was coming to save me. The point is, he needed Superman to save him. That's all I've been trying to say.

  • @farizzal Nah, there's natural talent, but magic in the DCU is available to anyone that can master the discipline. We both know he can.

    Getting back to canon, Owlman and some of the other alternate versions of batman prove he could do much more with his suit than he does, he chooses to fight crime almost naked and he still does a better job than the almost god-like heroes in the JL.

    Plus it was a general call, it could have been Martian Manhunter or Wonder Woman.

  • @Craydon well Batman hasn't learned magic thus far so we have to assume that in this situation he does not know it. So that option is out the window. All of your arguments depend on "could be" or "would have" statements. What ACTUALLY happened is that Batman couldn't save himself and needed Superman to save him. This happens in Public Enemies too, Batman needs Superman to save him against the ice villains.

  • @farizzal We don't know that, if you'd asked me if Bats could sing I'd have said no, but we saw it in an episode. It fits batmans mo that even if he doesn't use an ability he's at least well verse in it just in case he has to stop it.

    ...Hey, if your name's in the title they at least have to make you seem useful.

    I see it more like this, bat,man is giving his all saving us all with the knowledge that he's on a team, he doesn't need them there but they do allow him to take more risks.

  • @Craydon I am not saying he doesnt know magic, i am saying since we have never seen him show knowledge of magic we cannot assume he would have it up his sleeve. I love Batman, and I love Superman. But what pisses me off are the people that are like "oh Superman is a bitch, Batman would own him". So fucking stupid.

  • @farizzal And I'm saying don't write off the god of prep.

    That's two different issues. A fight between Batman and Superman is decided by who starts it and how far they are willing to go. Both could take the other out if they meant to, superman by attacking bats and one shoting him(though he'd have to worry about any contingency plans), and batman could beat superman in a fight without his powers via red star radiation, or just poison the guy with kryptonite, then the beatings just gravy.

  • @Craydon At one point Superman gave Batman kryptonite with the idea being if Superman tried to take the world over, that Batman would be the only one he could trust to pull the trigger and end the Man of Steel.

  • @TheLastRainShadow

    dam straight

  • but cant batman glid with his cape ?

  • @nonoob5611

    You might be thinking of Terry, the Batman from 'Batman Beyond'. If Bruce tried gliding with his cape, he'd probably either wrench his arms out of their sockets, or tear the cape into tatters.

  • exactly batman could have just glided down with his cape

  • Oh Please. Batman is just making sure Superman keeps busy. We all know he had at least 6 different back-up plans just for this occasion.

  • Fail Batman you just got saved by mucho man Superman ;)

  • @Eleanorminblack Superman just became relevant when Batman had pity on him and jumped out of his plane to give him a job.

  • ..The only time he hasnt had a grappling hook on hand ?

  • I love how calm he is about this. "Oh, I'm about to plunge to my death, but it's cool, I'm sure one of my flying buddies will come get me." XD

  • So instead of spreading out his limbs to slow his descent he tucks them in, reduces wind resistance and falls even faster. I don't blame you Bats, I blame the animators!

  • @SporkBand On the other hand... Who would bothering spreading his limbs when he has Superman as a sidekick.

  • @SporkBand i was just going to point that out lol, he has that much faith in his team mates saving him again. Like he couldnt of asked for help 1 minute ago and not lose his jet.

  • And not a single fuck was given.

  • @Jaquan1254 Damn straight.

  • He bat-glared at the ground, causing it to duck down in fear until Superman came.

  • You would think he would glide?

  • @cik105 He left that particular cape in the bat closet that day.

  • I dnt think anyone noticed the fact that bats is flying a fucking jet probably travelling close to the speed of sound and yet he managed to throw batarangs forward hard enough that flew backwards into steel dogs because they were being pushed back by wind how strong is he to throw a batarang through all that wind at that speed

  • @09ACBrown actually, I am not certain that the jet was moving so quickly... it was probably slowed considerably by the arrival of the attack tigers.

  • @09ACBrown Because he's Batman.

  • so much inconsistency!! i think the writers and directors of this episode forgot that batman's cape can let him glide so he did not really need superman's help.

  • @iinfiiniitii *shrugs* remember that this was made a long years ago, possibly before Batman's cape had the technology to glide. Besides, being able to have a cape that glides won't do you much good when you're free falling and probably pretty close to terminal velocity

  • I think he's aware that main characters don't die.

  • @WildDragon2013 Haven't you learned anything from toy Story? Batman can only fall, with style. He can't fly.

  • only batman would be the only guy who can calmly requesting someone to catch him as he free falls to very certain doom and not blink even when hes feet from hitting

  • Great scene. Kevin Conroy also displays his incredible voice acting. The 7 people who dislike this are fools.

  • Wait cant he just glide with his cape LOL?

  • @ANGELOFDARKification

    Because Batman's trying to prove a point. He's proving that Superman will do anything.

    I'm sure Batman had a million alternatives.

  • @Keiferm1 oh shut the fuck up

  • @ANGELOFDARKification he was just proving that Superman is his bitch.

  • 0:39 wow Batman is their nothing your afraid of? falling hundreds of feet to your death and you calmly ask for "support" and even joke about it a bit! He really is the best.

  • Wonder what batman would say if he was tied to a woodchoper.

    "This is batman. I'm about to die, need some help over here.

    Now would be good.

    Nevermind"

  • "Since I can't fly... at all."

    LOL

  • The one time he didn't mind being carried by Superman.

  • Kevin Conroy and his magically flat delivery. I love Batman. HAHAHAHAHA.
