BO-105 Lowlevel Video

[HondoMcRaven]

No imagine you're having sexytime with your gf, thinking that you're hidden somewhere between the trees and then... BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR­RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR a BO105 flies 20 inches over your heads...

[motokid032]

Now mute this video, and play "Mein Land" by Rammstein..It's fucking fantastic!

[WLFP80]

What's the Title of the Music in the Video?

[migser85]

too bad there was no gorpo by that time

[TRAPBOULTERNAS]

do this at night in a storm 10 times blindfolded and you might make it into the 160th!!!

[silvanelf1]

Would have been better with the Airwolf theme song...just sayin.

[jstertube1]

Best hot roddin' I've ever seen in a chopper.

All I can say is, the best ship to do it in is a BO105. Half of me is pea green with envy of the pilot for the fun he's having. The other half is envious of his nads.

[tlgglr]

fantastic flight

[MetalMachine346]

@n68188 ah ha ha epic comment lol

[TheTopBloke]

How could you NOT like this video?!?

[N5MCF]

I get a rush every time I watch this. SUPER!!!

[bodyboystance2]

This video is part of an arma 2 treasure hunt ;)

so excited

[Rouveli]

This pilot knows what he does

[AirstripBum]

Looks like fun!

[camarogod93]

Saying this guy has 'balls of steel' would like saying the core of the sun is 'mildly warm'.

[DiogoS90]

piece of cake.. I do this everyday with this heli (on flightgear flight simulator) = P

[BoxFreind]

I want one

[Orangebike666]

I see a dense forest..... He sees a Helicopter Slalom course 

[leviterande]

Thers only one explanation: he sold his soul to the devil

[FederalTracks]

0:55 wow

[espectro2n]

@FederalTracks MAX PERFORMANCE TAKE OFF

[JFSFLICKS]

I flew it when I was the unoffical head of the CIA and got hold of some bad weed. If you believe that, then I have some swamp land for sale down here in Florida. I also walked on the moon in the 1950s and if you believe that, then your got hold of some bad weed. ------- bad weed is really not, all that bad!

[fowlerhound]

where can i get this vid without that gay music?

[Pferdesalami]

@fowlerhound nowhere because its a production video and in the 60´s this musik was hip :)

[DerMarcie]

still is one of the best .....

[netubeuhu]

great video

[bigfriend10]

cool



[snskywalker]

flight precision with balls !

[sbrughi]

I want to see a A-129 Mangusta doing it! Agility fantastic!

[walkerjwredsox]

this homey got balls!!!

[DerMarcie]

now imagine a "schwarm" of 3 of them with 6 TOWs each, then you know what they where built for....

[MacGyver8683]

@DerMarcie

Note: In the Bundeswehr a "Schwarm" oder Flight for the english speaking guys consists nowadays of 4 Bo105. In the old days it consisted of 7 Bo105 and the armament is 6 HOT not TOW.

[Conan1ts]

He did cut the grass at 00:53.

[tspcrowther]

@Conan1ts good spot

[xcarlos82]

Amazing high level of precision flying. Feels like star wars pod racing looking out of the inner camera. :)

Anybody know the music?

[CrazyHeliDude]

This is piloting at its utter finest.

[funkee05]

crazy

[MuffiiinMan]

FAKE!!!

[ozskip1974]

WANKER!!!

[rafvdbosch]

BLIND DICKHEAD

[MuffiiinMan]

successful troll is successful

[rafvdbosch]

wot do you mean?

[Joggaa18]

i really got respect for those pilots - one wrong move with the control stick and you`re gone ....

[rennfrikadelle]

The pilot of this flight was not Karl (Charlie) Zimmerman, but Wilfried von Engelhard, a former testpilot of MBB.

This Video was taken by MBB in the mid sixties for demonstration of the perfomance of the helicopter.

[stu303art]

@rennfrikadelle source?

[Vollhirni]

@stu303art it's a known fact among army helicopter pilots of that era. my uncle was a helicopter pilot based in celle and later in bueckeburg. he took part in the development of the PAH and, later until he retired, of the PAH2.

[sheldonholy]

@rennfrikadelle Hmm... But in the mid sixties did they have internet?

[jasmine547]

I fly one of these. Its a great helicopter. Old though.

[Warpedtank]

du fliegst die BO105??????

[Warpedtank]

you fly the Bo105?

[jasmine547]

Yes, I fly the Bo105LS

[Warpedtank]

!!!!!!!!

[ildfrozt]

I used to as well...upgraded to EC-135 T2+....not a bad upgrade ;-)

[bucknaked466f]

those pushovers are amazing! i want one.

[mhale71]

Its the LOW G jumps over those trees that are the most amazing thing, try one of those moves in 85% of any other helicopters out there and the main blades chop the tail or the head off.

[motokid032]

Thats for sure..I'm sure any two bladed heli would eat itself doing what this German beast did.

[Chefundheilsbringer]

Charly und die ´´Bo´´ einfach unschlagbar!!!

[SirGonzo77]

Definitiv der beste Helikopter Weltweit

[joop1977]

Beats a black n decker i suppose.

[oliolster]

this guy defo has balls of steal!

[shep2112]

Does anyone know when this video was made? It seems modern, but the film look and music make it seem like mid to late 70s. Great soundtrack and amazing flying! :)

[n68188]

70s helicopter porn

[maxneu]

I saw one of these doing loops over Abu Dhabi at the Red Bull Air Race. Very impressive

Nice vid too!

[taiga284]

Yeahhh! It's amzing, what a high level of agility this old german Helicopter shows in its performance!!!! This time, it's a german Heli, getting honors from the audience!!!! :-)

[Karmage00]

he was a test pilot in the bo 105, he got some fucking skills

[JasonJJasonJ]

0:54 - he hits the tree. Un-frikin-believable

[n68188]

Its not quite a tree yet, still looks like a sapling/bush. the post makes it sound like a serious impact when he was just trimming the hedges (lol). Although I must agree with the conclusion; Un-frikin-believable.

[plaiskool]

He didn't hit the tree...he cut the tree : )

[M0t0rBreath89]

Was this lane built for the chopper, it looks like its a chopper course with a tree right in the middle, kinda curious.

[helifan4]

No, it's a natural dry valley of the river Isar in the "Teufelsgraben" (devils ditch) near Holzkirchen, Germany. It's not far from Ottobrunn, where the MBB company was located. Now its a Subdivision of Eurocopter.

If you look close you'll see that the film was cut together an if you have a look at the satellite picture you'll be definately sure that its not an round course.

[MrSneakyNicky]

most of those trees would have been planted before helicopters where even invented so no, no its not built for flying helicopters in.

[torolof]

this guys is the best!

[JJShep1978]

I think that must be the best peice of flying I have ever seen in my life, astounding.

[Vollhirni]

I think he was aerobatic helicopter world champion and was based in bueckeburg.

[wowi55]

WO wurde das aufgenommen ?

[jasmine547]

I am a BO105LS pilot. I love this video! Sometimes I hear this song in my head while I am flying, it makes me smile.

[rocketeer549]

Awesome low level action....very nice !!! If you like low level fixed wing video please visit "Crazy Russian Pilot". You will love it.

[therealMarcoman]

Look at my site. There is a Bo105 PAH1 video called: Schlagender Falke, from the Heeresfliegerregiment 16 at Celle, germany. Lowlevel flight.

[cuchingadolores]

what's the name of the song?

[cuchingadolores]

Como se llama el tema musical?.

What the song?

[sdrfgvrfgvsfravgdsvS]

is RC?

[jbcanada77]

No. You can see the pilot.

[BluMonday88]

Er No!!

[sdrfgvrfgvsfravgdsvS]

what?

[gumbysheetz]

one of the best videos showing alot of skill and craziness that any chopper pilot could want to muster up. if this pilot was killed, at least this video gives the world the chance to remember him and his ability to push to the limit of helicopter flying.

sure enjoyable to watch from both on the ground AND in the pilot's seat. breathtaking!

[turbowillem]

Thanks for putting this video on YouTube.

I have seen K.Zimmerman a few times flying this Bolkow on air shows in The Netherlands.

This video was also shown during TV pause on German Television about 20 years ago!

[Nonamed22]

So chrisskira you are german?

Because the man at the stick here is Major Karl Zimmermann from the german army aviation.

And yes cheesle250gm you definitely know Jack Shit. And his entire family.

[chrisskira]

i think this is my lost father because i fly like this, super vid thank you

[Scheltokeeper]

The Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm Bo105 is a good chopper. I like the Anti-Tank Version PAH-1 & PAH-1A1.

[zoomer46]

this is not colin mcrae!

he was in a twin squirrel.don't name drop people you have never met!

[cheesle250gm]

I knew the pilot personally. He died in a crash in Scotland earlier this week. He was a damm good rally driver too. even won the wrc

. RIP mate.

[p4lestina]

This crew got no love, life was so meaningless.

[Teamtigerpaw]

I bet he knows each tree by NAME!!

That would make my Johnson go in my Ass never to be found.:>)

[Viperpilot30]

As low as you can! :)

[dieselrider69]

gotta love this machine, my favourite over the as350. Like wrenching on an old truck. Try those pushovers with a 500 or old long dog and youll lose the tail for sure lol

[buenosdiers]

what I like about this is MBB machine is that this helicopter has been used in Germany as civilian save-and-rescue helicopter, which makes German engineering worthwhile. it's not only about war mongering and war profiteering

[haddock0815]

And yes, this is a real helicopter and these are real trees, no RC fake!

It was a commercial of MBB (Messerschmidt Bölkow-Blohm, now part of Eurocopter)

[haddock0815]

I would not be surprised if this pilot is Karl "Charlie" Zimmermann.

He was at the German Army and in charge to test the Bo105 for the Army.

Well, he found out what was possible with the - at that time - brand new rotor "system Bölkow" (rigid rotor hub).

He was world champion for helicopter aerobatics a few times and probably one of the first guys who flew a looping with a helicopter; the Bo105 was the first helicopter that was able to do that.

[deering505]

These flying skills are just *stunning*.

[asusmobo123]

Sweet, that dude is crazy in a good way. Awesome video.

[helipi013]

Awesome!!!

[sherbahn]

I wonder if sex still does something for this guy.

[hungrycamel]

that guy. is... amazing!

[GebJg]

awesome vid! nice flying skills

[loopu]

really sick..

[kennywomble]

Great edit camera man's got more guts than the pilot!!

Makes me want to go out and buy one. Better than a R22 at least.

[mellamofred]

this guy has to be nuts...

[gadget666]

I swear that rotor clipped the grass at some point

[xnvyflyer]

Very nice
