Mythbusters - How Not To Land A Plane ( Simulator Tells Jamie "not to Think")

[ICEGTN]

I understand they never saw a joystick in their life, but c'mon, they could have tried a bit harder.

[JohnisoneGR]

YOU SUCK! VERY LAGGY VID! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOB

[musicalmike235]

"Why is it telling me not to think?"

Best line ever!

[TechnoLoverFoEva8239]

It said dont sink not think. lol

[blackwolfsquadron]

I was one of the engineering that designed that sim when I used to work at CAE.

[NathanielBlack12]

lol its fsx

[sivadepilif]

"dont think" look the "chick ass" IoI

[jumpsuiit]

hahah Don't think! Why have i never thought of that earlier.. :D

I think it's funny also when the 737 says "retard" haha

[FlyGuy2480]

lol 1:12 "Looks like we are headed towards some kind of population center. Let's see if we can go FASTER!"

What's the logic behind that thought?

[Rettungsliegerfan]

now to a barrel roll

[Facebook3682]

The gear button is actually a lever. lol!

[wwwd1fcom]

@Facebook3682 A lever with round shape, like a wheel. This way you could say what you're doing by simply touching it.

[thebullmck]

@zszs100. for sure noting to it, riddle me this, if you crash the real thing and kill yourself, can you press the restart button and try again.

[TheSGCGaming]

LOL, I bet all of us sim pilots were screaming at the monitor saying what to do.

[witcherdude]

@TheSGCGaming actually, all of us real pilots do that to the sim guys' videos..

[TheSGCGaming]

@witcherdude LOL, real pilots would do that aswell.

[wiledmanrandall]

ROFL!!! 4 reds. Sink rate. It must have been hard for the simulator care taker to stay so stoic through it all. 

[zangdaarr]

It's an Airbus ... it's not possible without disabling the protection laws

[bmjake]

I'd fly that...

[BlackAnvil47]

Stay away from Jamie and Adam Airlines for your life!

[zszs100]

Honestly, If you can land a plane smoothy in Flight Simulator X and know the basic controls of airplane (flaps, auto pilot, alitmiter ect) then you should be able to land a real plane in a nice weather with air traffic control guidance! :D

[saildapper2001]

I have a private single engine land and glider certifications, but have always been curious if I could make a single survivable landing in an airliner unaided. I suspect if I took over at a reasonable flight level and had time to scan the cockpit, there might be a chance, and if there was radio assist the chances might approach 50%. Thank heavens for the professionals when the weather deteriorates!

[iFlyAldamat1Online]

they are doesnt have gear down

[TheSFGAFREAK]

It is saying dont sink! Not dont think! Dumb dumbs dont know how to do all of these insane science experiments but cant just cant lower a plane onto a huge strip of tar. Anyways nice vid!

[innersilencedotcom]

pull up! allright i`m pulling up! pull up! I AM! - EPIC

[houshidar558]

" Don't sink" raise the nose way to steep of a descent you're passengers stomach is most likely in there throats

[FernandoEstebanEsteb]

DONT SINK Alarm no don't think

[zszs100]

@FernandoEstebanEsteb Don't Sink and Pull up means that you're in a bad glide for landing!

[iFlyAirplanes96]

lol, its saying DONT SINK, not don't think! :P

[militaryman7778]

@ClearToEngageFSX Me too

[ClearToEngageFSX]

After playing FSX for a hell of a long time, I actually think I could fly one of these. Lol.

[Daniel11987]

@ClearToEngageFSX No, you can't.

[rahmanroni]

@ClearToEngageFSX LMAO, that's like saying after learning how to drive in Forza, you can become a professional race car driver, even though you have never touched a car in real life before. Its really funny and sad how people think that playing around with fsx is anywhere remotely close to actually flying a real plane.

[Kloborgg]

@rahmanroni

Terrible comparison. FSX is a real simulator, Forza is an arcade racer. Driving requires you to feel the pavement, and games don't give you peripheral view. In a flight simulator, you have full cockpit view, and if you can use the instruments, you can fly pretty well. Nothing can fully prepare you besides the real thing, but you can learn how to fly quite well with just FSX.

[thcbamboo]

@ClearToEngageFSX as a pilot i can say: no you dont. really not.

[euroblast]

Have over 5000 hours in Microsoft Flight simulator X, so would be really funny to try that real xD

[plsniper]

Was this in Atlanta? Looks familiar.

[connorfaulder2000]

I definatly don't want to be on a plane with him flying! P.S. I think someone should show him what a ATC tower looks like!

[MetropolitianTransit]

Don't Sink not don't think

[Dude1112]

It's "Don't Sink" dummies lol

[Rwy02]

"Hes going too fast" but yet the stall warning is going off????????

[scowley86]

@Rwy02 you can stall an aircraft at any speed if you exceed the the wing's critical angle of attack. Its known as an accelerated stall. This type of stall is usually the most violent type of stall and puts the aircraft through tremendous structural stresses as a direct result of the speed.

[bamforth007]

isnt that just fsx in a nasa simulator !?!

[Renkaanelama]

@bamforth007 Yep and thats because they are not putting them to 14 million simulators

[HKS134]

@bamforth007 it is with REx and gex addons LOOL but very laggy

[bamforth007]

@HKS134 lolz but my £1,400 gaming pc with rex is less lggy lolzz

[amfs23]

If you go faster when you see a populated area, then the terrorists win Jamie...

[dark8spirits]

I play flight Simulator and i can land a plane quiet safely :)

[gregaperkin]

@dark8spirits yeh good luck with that!

[dark8spirits]

@gregaperkin i dont need luck x3

[Loudyest]

I wish so much I could try this even once!

[MrLephi1]

even i can fly a plane and land it

[Skatinboii9009]

thumbs up if the beep beeping sounds like gta 4 crashing

[bumtaksi]

this man....knows everything!

[truthsofwolf]

If I had a penny for every frame in this video, I would have a penny.

[JERademo]

maybe this simulator had a lisp.

[hippitheman]

press every button!

[ht448]

I dont get it, i got to use one at an airshow when i was 14 and landed fine lol! was he drunk? cuz he's really smart

[thesmart358]

It's don't sink, referring to the sink (or descent rate) of the plane.

[TheMrLPShinodalism]

lol dont think? haha its actually Don't sink

[paulr164]

yep it actually is my dad is a military pilot and he teaches me all about flying. it is A ground proximity warning system (GPWS) is a system designed to alert pilots if ... setting ("DON'T SINK"); Unsafe terrain clearance ("TOO LOW – TERRAIN" .

[Ram256PL]

@TheMrLPShinodalism PULL UP !!!

[jtfreed]

i think it says dont sink

[johnan26]

it is "Down Sink"

[lycoming333]

@johnan26 dont sink

[FIreFlaster]

Don't Sink dumass

[VWRacingXZ]

"don't think" that's the funniest thing i heard in a while, it says don't sink lol

[adbmnj10]

I am 12. I know how to land a plane perfactly following all the steps. I'm also considered pro ATC in fsx:P

[Laudan08]

@adbmnj10 Can you blow up stuff whenever you want? Do you have fans worldwide and a beard?

[Ab1234ify]

DONT SINK!!!



[kingsandqueens01]

It said dont sink, not dont think.

[geminijets787delta]

don't sink not don't think

[slaxdif]

Its scarebus...and FSX

[HartsfieldSpotting]

It's an airbus. LOL

[flintp51]

it's actually saying "don't sink." his decent rate is too high......

[MrMattsung]

I am 12 and I know how to land a plane in X-plane.BTW,landed nicely with a flare

[0oCrimsono0]

@MrMattsung yeah x-plane, real simulators fly different, lol, noob

[THSurvivalGear]

It's saying... Don't Sink...

[nathanfishing3000]

lol i can land that thing in a peace of cake

[henkiehenken]

@nathanfishing3000 and you are a pilot?

[0oCrimsono0]

@nathanfishing3000 let me guess in a simulator....

[yekane1]

the "dont think" is actually "dont sink" which is telling him to pull up

- Training Pilot

[RandomPedestrian63]

@yekane1 nice copying skills.

[yekane1]

@RandomPedestrian63 Haha, not really, I know this since I have my pilots license.

[RandomPedestrian63]

@yekane1 No, I meant the top comment. Pilots license and a Pilot in training?

[yekane1]

@RandomPedestrian63 If you meant the top comment why did you reply to mine?

[panther105]

These guys are such a waste of time. Totally redneck approach to everything,

[decnet100]

@panther105 At least they have an approach to questions that goes beyond arguing. Which sets them apart from about 98% of the population.

[JoshTehVideoMaker]

....loks like fsx with the graphics set to low

[airbusa380andsas]

@JoshTehVideoMaker it is fsx you can see it is the deafult a321 with mythbusters textures :)

[Peacekeeper2403]

@airbusa380andsas I dislike the Airbus in FSX. It tries to fly for me too much and that causes lots of conflicts with me to the point I've crashed the plane often. I'm use to flying the aircraft not having an aircraft tell me everything I do while flying the aircraft without autopilot controls is wrong. It's like it has a permanent autopilot on and conflicts with me all the time.

[airbusa380andsas]

@Peacekeeper2403 i agree a hate the airbus a321 but i do like the 737

[Peacekeeper2403]

@airbusa380andsas Yeah... that Boeing 737 is great. I use default aircraft for FSX so I get annoyed by little issues that were left in the game. I fly only in Virtual Cockpit so I like to have access to all the knobs switches and controls available on the aircraft. Not being able to switch on a specific light switch without Keyboard help annoys me, the 737 is pretty well design compared to the other Airliners.

[airbusa380andsas]

@Peacekeeper2403 year the pmdg 737 is better and more realistic then the deafult.

[sodaxcandy08]

aw i wanna play !!!!!!

[baggen44]

bet i could do it better, lmao

[TurbineProductionsX]

he thinks that was Bad airbus calls you a retard on approach XD

[TurbineProductionsX]

it doesnt say "dont think" it's "Dont Sink"

[MrParamedics]

Ahh! You're speed is on the Primary Flight Display, left side of the attitude indicator! THATS WHERE YOUR SPEED IS!

[fmpanic000]

fast and the furious airplane drift.....

[Dominoes282]

How can you suck this bad as a man who understands so much about the physics involved

[MrSveners]

no he only said where to go

[MrSveners]

same i landed a real plane and im only 13

[pancakezombie13]

@MrSveners Well ddid you have proper instruction and supervision?

[scotplane]

@MrSveners I'm guessing that it was a little Cessna.

[TheJoshfrey]

im better then jamie

[TheMercuryman2]

belive it or not, im 9 and i can land a plane pretty well, i guess

[m7mad95]

even big simulator has low FPS !!!!!!!!!

[henkiehenken]

@m7mad95 so? useless comment....

[flyboy685]

@m7mad95 I blame the guys behind the computers who didn't take off FPS cap of 20.

[Vectoreenio]

@m7mad95 its the video not the simulator

[m7mad95]

@Vectoreenio duh, iknow.

it's a joke

[kiwiblinks]

@m7mad95 its old

[TheEryk03]

@m7mad95 all the video is low FPS not simulator... moron.

[TheGabbia]

@m7mad95 is the video not simulator! XD

[m7mad95]

@TheGabbia Yes i know :P

[iNinja85]

Does no experience count flying a small piper tomahawk thing....? Cuz I've flown one of those for real

[evildeathmonkey1]

@iNinja85 me too:D I flew a Cessna 150 for about 20/25 minutes! Does that qualify me for anything??

[RZ3296]

"Pull Up!"

"AHH SHUT UP!" hahahahaahahahaa

[SERVICEOFHUMMANITY]

DONT SINK! lol ;)

[houshidar558]

bank angle, over speed, sink rate , damaging flaps with overspeed man jamie your killing the plane

[Ptorrescardona]

next episode will be "can a 5 year old drive."

[LegoShow1000]

tell him 2 play fsx it helps... alot

[fsxAIRLINEguy]

Lol flight simulator x, i fly dis :D

[ningle4567]

Your captain today is Adam savage "shit shit shit shit shit" I want to fly with them

[Ohm1100]

even i can fly a plane better than him and im 12. to bad i cant find the runway in fsx.

[edgarmeyerswohn]

he is sitting in a boeing simulator and they show us an airbus ;-)

[coso9288]

He is gonna wreck the simulator

[pilotp2099]

lol dont think

It's don't sink!!!!!!

[Juppie902]

what fs is that, 2000 ? lol

[samsicles]

@Juppie902 It's not Microsoft flight simulator, it's a proper one engineered to simulate an actual jet. These simulators are worth several millions of dollars.

[PunkBuster123]

i prefer asian drivers

[derekhalls]

i love this guys they are so nerds!!

[guohouzuo]

"Pull up, pull up"

"shut up"

XD

[Chaoticbravo]

I think it's funny how Jamie said "I need to find my speed" immediately after looking directly at his PFD.

[Armigo91]

The simulator cabin didnt break?

Go0wd work hyneman.

[ROBLOXrayan1565]

The simulator tells him "not to sink", but Jamie thinks the simulator told him "not to think."

[houshidar558]

Don't sink not don't think

[KnodoffFan]

I think they need more ram, they're really lagging :3

[Transfusions]

haha "don't think". Yeah follow your instinct. 

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

duh, manually level the plane, find autopilot switch, get on radio channel 121.5, listen to them, land the plane. when in autopilot, you have a chance to look at the dashboard.

[2000concorde]

dude is neva gonna get his pilot license



[DracoAzule]

"Oh I'm actually flying."

ROFLMFAO XDDDD

[Dmetrey437]

@SirKamiloPL I dont think thats lag, i belive its becouse of the diffence of the FPS of the Flight Sim, and the FPS the camara could have captured. Actually.... if you look again the whole video is laggy  :)

[Dmetrey437]

Please DO this at home. :D

[Dominoes282]

It doesn't say dont think it says "don't sink".

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

To all the people who says it's FSX I think the pro sims also use the same microsoft graphics engine.

[hlfLordTesco]

so bad

[Postbus22]

omg its FSX

[styXv3ngeance]

there is no button for the landing gear ..

[houshidar558]

lololol he told him pull up and he stalled the plane ahahhahaha

[CaptainFelixTan1]

this is fsx!!!-awesome!!!!!



[JoaoMario24]

Am I the only one who realized he forgot to drop the landing gears?

[MagnesiumAlloy]

He has the wrong stuff.

[MrFlightSimVidz]

@SirKamiloPL Wow..... haha!

[TGB747]

over speed over speed woop woop pull up dont sink dont sink woop woop pull up

[MrFlightSimVidz]

"Dont sink". The airplane is telling him to raise his nose.

[CaptainFelixTan1]

@MrFlightSimVidz this sim sounds and look like fsx!!! right???

[gt5004life]

@MrFlightSimVidz No, nose to 3 degrees pitch up and apply TOGA thrust. Atleast that's A320 SOP.

[MrFlightSimVidz]

@gt5004life What? Are you retarded? SOP to apply TOGA thrust after liftoff? Takeoff thrust must be set by 40 knots indicated airspeed (source; not wikipedia, my friends dad whom flies the A320 for Delta).

[gt5004life]

@MrFlightSimVidz The better question is, are you retarded? Do you even know what TOGA is? It is the maximum power the engines can generate, i.e HIGHER then FLX takoff thrust. My source? The official FCOM, I have it right here in front of me. Do some reading before you try to be youtube smart.

[gt5004life]

@MrFlightSimVidz And I might add, since you are so retarded, that TOGA thrust are used for takeoff when FLX is not!

[MrFlightSimVidz]

@gt5004life I'm aware TOGA thrust is used for takeoff. But it must be set before 40 KIAS.

[gt5004life]

@MrFlightSimVidz What does that have to do with anything? And it doesn't if a FLX takeoff setting is being used.

[FsFreako]

@MrFlightSimVidz

Not really, It's the gpws telling that he's losing altitude rather quickly after takeoff.

[daniel121212121212]

Doesn't the simulator say, "Don't sink?"

[dingoklectos]

@daniel121212121212

Yep its called the GPWS (ground proximity warning system). Once the plane is close to ground (or terrain), it will say the altitude '40 - 30 -20 -10)...that is in feet. or pull up.

I am a private pilot.

[daniel121212121212]

@dingoklectos - I'm a keen flight simulator pilot; I've got to the airliner lesson on the 2000 flight simulator and having some trouble with altitude and speed control. Is the joystick you use at home a whole lot harder to control the aircraft (especially in the big planes) than the controls in real airoplanes?

[dingoklectos]

@daniel121212121212

Hey the flight simulator is the best way to learn the principles and stick skills.

The joystick tension is not as hard as in a real aircraft especially in turbulence. I fly a cessna 172 and the controls are very light in normal wind conditions. In turbulence, they need more pressure.

However, flight simulator on the computer is harder to do certain things (like the traffic pattern)...when you go from base to final, for eg, you cant see peripherally, and ... contd...

[dingoklectos]

@daniel121212121212

and screen redraw is slower so the time you apply the joystick and the time it actually works is delayed. This happens in big planes because of momentum, you have to apply pressure a bit ahead of time. But I have never flown a big plane, only small plane and small planes are fairly easy to control in normal weather.
