  • @StealthCessnaCombats Dear God...You guys were obviously never in the Navy...Take off speed is about 130kts, to include the 30kts carrier generated into the wind....600mph??,,,Not hardly......

  • what's your rate?

    

  • Ca s'appelle un catapultage

    Le tain avant est relié par une tige de fer qui est reliée a une catapulte hydraulique ( a vapeur)

    C'est cette catapulte qui sur 50 m va drainer l'avion et lui permettre d'obtenir la vitesse nessecaire a son décolage (250 km/h)

  • what is that smoke stuff when the jet takes off

  • @satinderjit4 steam

  • im excited. Ship to basic in Feb. Aviation Electronics Technician. watching these videos gives me wood.

  • Imagine having the green deck crewman's job...

  • Why does the track smoke? Im rather new to Carriers

  • @Airplanesaremything: it's not smoke - it's steam from the catapult (big ass piston).

  • It is one of the most amazing feelings, to have your teeth rattle out of your face when they go to high power.

  • I was impressed

  • that is my husbands commands jet getting ready to fly off the carrier !

  • zoooom zoom goes plane hahh

  • FKING AWESOME!!!

  • aint that majestic? compare it with wright brothers takeoff...mmmh

  • No wonder it's one of the most dangerous jobs in the world working on the flightdeck, they have to be really switched on.

  • Wow, that was quick! Those guys standing close until the very last second have a nerve"

  • I've always wondered what is the steam that appears on top of the deck after they take off? Is it some sort of way of cooling the launch cable system or something?

  • aircraft carriers launch those using a steam powered launch system

  • Actually yes, I have... And I'm only 14... I know someone that works In The JFK tower, and I was able to go up in there, then er were driven around on the Tarmac right next to the planes As they took off and landed... I could touch the runway (I did haha) and I even got to walk on the white styrofoam type

    Material at the end of the runway...soooo ... Yeah haha

  • Wow that was one lucky moment there chris. Probably an FA18... am i right... anyway. WOW

    The Reviewer

  • Dude...

    epic

  • Who are they going to fight with ?

    War ?

  • They are called training excercises or sorties. They happen everyday.

  • training exercises ?

    Why are they training

    To fight ? which is = War

  • Bitterkeel do you even know what your talking about. Read the answer. MISSION PREPAREDNESS.  Thats the reason and thats the answer. There certainily not going to go to war with your mama. What do you think National defense pays for??? If you can't figure this out then no one here can help you.

  • This would make made an awesome marshmallow cooker. All you needed to do was stand behind it Chris. = )

  • Make love, not war.

  • Make love, not Warcraft.*

  • Play with air, not Warcraft.

  • Comment removed

  • play with life, not warcraft.

  • if you want to make a roasted chicken in 10 seconds put it in the back of that plane !

  • Y were you on an aircraft carrier Chris? are u in the Navy or something?

  • that was fast!!!!!!

  • @iSwaggrite 300 mph

  • OMFG

    Chris, you are one lucky man

    I LOVE THOSE F16 fighting falcns xD

  • no retard, that was FA18. F16 is air force

  • how did you get on?

  • Believe it or not, I have been closer to a jet that's taken off. I was actually IN one once.

    :)

    ...What a stupid thing to say. I hope I get -58783 for saying that.

  • well are you honest about it?

  • Honest about what? I HAVE been in a plane before, if that's what you mean. The -58783 thing doesn't really matter. If it happens it happens.

  • Where was the blast back from the jets?

  • Wonder how many innocent children it's killed?????????

  • Go fucking die you little bitch. That pilot is out there fighting for your freedom so show a little respect you little cunt.

  • Come down no one is fighting for anyone freedom these day U.S is invading weak countries and one country that it can't control.

  • hes out there fighting for people that speak as pointlessly and stupidly as you ? learn proper grammar then you might actually make a different in the world.

  • You mean difference? ... Guess you're not making one in the world since you can't seem to follow it either.

  • big whoop , i made a typo since i was surrounded by idiotic comments...

  • speak for yourself LOL.

    "learn proper grammar then you might actually make a DIFFERENT in the world. "

  • as i have replied already to someone else about this matter , its a typo , it happens , get over it kid.

  • sorry lol didnt see that last comment u made. i was too focused on how stupid u made urself look in the first one.

  • With a name like "gay" i wouldnt keep talking if i was you...faggot.

  • lol ignorant asshole. my name is an inside joke with my friends. spelled out for dumbshits like urself. it reads, Gay for Jesus=GayforJC. so yea i will keep talking if you like talking shit. Ive got all day to put u in ur place.

    and thats probably the worst attempt ive ever seen to make urself seem like a smartass know-it-all SOB. using just the first word in my name.

  • Keep wishing , and keep sucking JC's dick like you seem to be doing all day.

  • i gave u the benefit of the doubt and called u ignorant and now ur just a full blown dumb fucking retard. you still dont understand the meaning of inside joke or the comedy in my name.

  • holy shit no wonder ur pissed off. ur a gothic fat fuck who lives in Canada.

  • metalhead...not goth

  • ?!?! u dont have anything stupid to say to me this time :) its funny how u dont have anything to say to the first comment i sent u. "i gave u the benefit of the doubt..."

  • seriously gemingmetalehaed just shut the fuck up ur fucking canadian seriously ur worse than being french

  • so true but i thought canadians were french lol.

  • stfu nigger

  • wtf is stfu

    i have a life man i dont speek internet

  • i think gay for jesus is a kool inside joke i think i know why and no i am not calling u gay lol

  • lol what inside joke do u think it is?

  • does it have something to do with jesus being gay because the way they put him on the cros or the way they tourtured him ??

  • i dont understand how that would be gay but heck no. my friend said "jesus has ur back bro" one day which then turned into gay for JC.

  • aaaaa

    ok haha

    but still my idea makes sense

  • what was this filmed with? flip or kodak?

  • i was closer to a jet when it broke mach 2... it hert my ears alot! it was a f-18 superhornet

  • I have followed a Harrier Jump Jet (British) in a truck, literally 20 feet behind

  • I have stood very close to jets taking off since I am a Jet engine mechanic in the Air Force. Better then standing next to them when they take off is standing under it when the jet is tied down for afterburner (It is actually called augmenter since it introduces fuel and fresh air to burn) test.

  • Wow! That must seem really cool!

  • What did you use to film this? Flip? Kodak?

  • "Have you ever stood this close to an aircraft that was taking off? "

    Does inside it count?

  • If  is he one day in that fighter.Happy death!!!

  • Ahh yes Deployment, and Take Off. Sempre Fi!

  • what if he doesnt start fast enough and falls into the water

    or has that never happened in history

  • oh its happened. The pilots usually eject in time.

  • doesnt the machine get trashed?

    at least hes alive

    stick a couple rockets on it

    and if its just a little short, fire them

  • sure its happened, but they have steam catapults to launch them, (I think.....?).

  • how did you get on the ship? and what were you doing on the ship?

  • sweet!

  • Beautiful - but your Mac Pro is still more powerful! XD

  • lol with the ssd it smokes that jet!

  • Why yes Chris i have been even closer

  • that is SO friggin cool... You da man Chris!

  • just amazing!

  • hey man what are u doing on the ship. I'm joining the Navy and every time i see these vids i am excited but then wonder, why is he on the ship?

  • because he is Chris prillo lol

  • Think that's cool; you should see the osprey with vertical takeoff.

  • great video!

  • that was awesome I would have thought it will be louder.

  • well they sling the planes off the carrier so i don't think it is as loud as a land take off

  • Waow

  • sweet

  • dude, thanks so much for posting these videos. These are soo cool!

  • Does anyone have a laptop that they do not use that I could have? I really need one for high school

  • lol, are you serious?

  • very high quality video man

  • what camera do you use?

  • fantastic, thanks Chris!

  • hey good one chris now i know that u actually do have a life outside ur house

  • If it weren't for these brave men and women, America's heroes, being paid to kill, how would the US be able to trample on weaker nations and dominate the globe?

  • hey the united kingdom owned half of the world and won ww1&2 and we are the size of a pea compared to you

  • Well, when you think about it, Britain and the Allies only won World War I because America came in when the French and British were so tired and weary...

    As for World War II, you have to remember it was theatres of war, so everyone versed different people. Again, it was the Allies that won the war, not the UK.

    Britain probably would have suffered more if it weren't for American reinforcements in the air.

    BTW, I'm not American, so don't call be biased.

  • in ww1 the americans came at the very end as far as i recalled. but they did help us out by giving us tanks, guns etc but we did help a great deal

  • Yeah, by the end of WWI, French and British troops were weary, and frankly old - in terms of fighting, and the Yanks came in all young and gun-ho, so they brought more energy to attacks etc...

    They came in after Germany sunk a civilian ship

  • So many times I've heard this America saved your ass in WWII crap. Yeah they helped, but it was an allied effort, we all helped each other, plus the English channell done it's bit too.

    Peace

  • As I said; in World War II, it was the Allies that won.

    America saved a lot of asses. The reason they say "America saved your ass in WWII" was the fact, they kinda did when you think about it... As much as I love to taunt and make fun of Americans or stupidity etc...

    In the wars, we probably wouldn't have gotten far without their eventual intervention, but we will never REALLY know...so ehh.

    Anyway, like I said in an earlier comment, WWII was really the Allied win...except the Russians. haha

  • first of all ... there not paid to kill people ... there paid to protect here country.... at all cost ...

  • "first of all ... there not paid to kill people"

    I disagree. How did the invasion of Panama, and the burying in mass graves of the resulting 2,000 dead, protect Americans? How did the invasion of Grenada protect the US? How did killing thousands in Iraqi soldiers protect the US? How did US bombing of civilians in Lebanon in the 80's protect the US?

    The US military is there to extend the United State's geopolitical reach & dominance: this will occasionally provoke a backlash (9/11).

  • We're dropping bombs

    But their not making peace

    What could be going wrong?

  • i know we should ban the bomb!

  • funny how americas freedom was achieved by killing and taking other peoples freedom away.

    what good has america done for anyone..look at what they r doing now?

    any nation who advances in technology becomes americas no 1 threat..for no reason.

  • too true,but no one will listen and we cant talk about it because big brother is always watching...

  • those are defensive mauvers ... and the us DID NOT PROVE 911

  • how are you getting these videos? how recent are they?

  • he's recording them, duh?

  • This year I stayed at an airforce base for a week. A few F-15I took off about the same distance as in this video from me. THAT WAS SO AWESOME!

  • I have flown an aircraft that is taking off.

  • where he goes t0

  • ive bin in a helicopter and a air plane and air craft

  • and we're off!

  • Cool

  • this might of been asked many times before, but do chris work for the navy or in the nayv?

  • He probably does this for fun. Nerds are rich and smart people.

  • Ustream isn't HD and his video camera is .....

  • Comment removed

  • That would be loud.

  • It was in the air within 2 seconds of it actually taking off... lol that's sweet

  • ok too cool - sure beats a cessna 172!

  • wow.

  • chris is doing this to make the bitch ponzarelli jeal

  • Chris i expected you of all people to use the subjunctive. The first sentence in the description should have read "If i were any closer to".

  • americans and their weapons of mass murdering

  • and if we didn't have them, we'd have no means of protecting our freedom, and defending our allies around the world.

  • protecting? you mean other countries need protecting from america..its americans who are always doing the invading.

  • You're entitled to your opinion, however false it may be.

  • America and it's religion is the biggest threat to world peace. Just look at your society, you set a very bad example (not that the UK is much better mind you)

    Atheist peace and may Darwin be with you.

  • Coming from someone with the username Mummyfunk lol

  • Are you called Mr Mac Freek because you've eaten too many big macs and turned you into a undernourished freek of nature?

  • Lol talking about peace, and how violence and war is a problem then you start poking fun at someone just becasue they are fat, I think the UK is the cause just because of examples like you... btw see that -1 that wasn't me, Ill make it -2 though

  • So, are you fat? And if so is it because you eat too many bigmacs?

  • No first off Im fat because I don't get exercise, aka I use my computer too much and play video games. Second off my name is mrmacfreek because I enjoy Macintosh computers, third off lets just chill and stop messaging back and forth cause it is really annoying

  • America and its religion, hmm yea I would be scared of that too, well good thing they don't have one dumb shit. Perhaps you meant their lifestyle? Probably not because you are an atheist or at least think you are. Their society? Well I guess you don't look at the whys or causes, just the residual effects. America was built up from poor settlers who had little focus but banded together, regardless of some initial differences. They had conviction and really knew what they believed, do you?

  • Umm, yeah America does have a religion - Christianity and it's denominations, not officially but in reality it is a Christian cuntry.

    As for the causes of societys problems, well the right ot bear arms has got a lot to answer for, not to mention the religious right, drug abuse, and hollywood, but I'm no professional socioligist so I'm a bit stuck on that one.

    And America was built from poor settlers who done really well for themselves, it only took the exterminaation of a few native people.

  • fuck me thats fast

  • Sweet airplane. I love fighter jets.

  • how did chris get here

  • Ive been that close to a F-18 when they were doing an engine check, I almost lost my hearing.

  • i am watching you TURN AROUND ..lol

  • oh wow, sweet

  • awesome :)

  • Nice and all, but thats for the Navy. If the anyone of us's enemies saw this, they could try to locate where that is and do stuff.

  • What the fuck? How the fuck can anyone locate an on duty aircraft carrirer by just seeing sea? Of course it's going to be in the fucking sea...

  • yes they may want to look in an ocean they may find them there ......

  • They can't because there is no location posted asbout it, this could be anywhere in the sea, and the sea doesn't have an adress.

  • They can. They can track the ip adress of the computer someone used down there to upload it. Then once found, they can find you. Thats how the police find a lot of people that do bad stuff n the internet.

  • I'm sorry, what IP exactly would they be tracking, and how? I smell bullshit. You can track the physical location of an IP address, but this video wasn't uploaded from aboard the aircraft carrier.

  • What I meant, was if they did infact upload that at the aircraft carrier, then they are in trouble.

  • what, do you think terrorist sit on youtube all day and look for enemy intell...off youtube!

  • Ah, then I agree! Although I suspect Chris will have uploaded this from home.

  • Chris uploaded this at home. Not on the Carrier. And even then, they internet connections they have on the carrier are highly encripted

  • And then again, the carrier is always moving. And last time I checked, the ocean if pretty freakin huge.

  • Ya, but if the person who uploaded with there computer was still on the air craft carrier, then they could just track the ip address. It doesn't matter if it's moving.

  • Yeah, but youtube dosn't keep track of IPs and it would be really hard to hack Youtube anyways

  • Well...people hack youtube a lot. You know how youtube is always down, well when down, a hacker has hacked there server, so I guess it's not as hard for those people.

  • uhh they dont use adress's to track people down on the ocean its usualy co-ordinates right?

  • Ya, but if the person who recorded this video uploaded it on that deck, then there in trouble because you can track the physical location of a pc ip address.

  • if someone did that, do you think they could get very far? This is the USS Nimitz...
