sandy iego !

[PackardDog]

Stupidist non-sport in the world. A bunch of egotistical, small penised men who are trying to prove something to a crowd of idiots.

[mafiagangsta1000]

this is awesome 

[McZeat]

Arh The Little Bird :(



[2Fast4U0921]

It's just a flesh wound.

[Dupeo42]

roflmao at the blood smear and the feather stuck to the tail.

[orlandoyadelina]

I was at this race and to bad he hit a bird and of course its dead and the good thing is that nothing happend to hannes arch.

[RK1Hatty]

Wow, its a DSQ for going over-g? I say thats a bit far. Yeah, safety is a big issue when you're pushing that hard but I still say that something like that should only be limited by the skill of the pilot and the quality of the aircraft.

[tarmogr]

I hope the bird will be ok.

[tsgill15]

what kind of stupid question is that spyydert. are you sutpid? that bird got minced to 3000 little pieces. It's DEAD!!!

[133j0hn]

@tsgill15

lol obviously spyydert was joking.

I'm starting to think everyone who posts a joke nowadays needs to add a "/sarcasm" tag after, just so people like you actually get that it's a joke.

[spyydert]

Was the bird OK?

[Mik3m6232]

what do you think? IT WAS DISSINTERGRATED!

[sidney765]

yeah, it healed after a week

[Lvduggo69]

Wow !!!! Good fer u.

[ein15]

i seen this when it was live on tv XD

[TheAdmach]

ouch

[DJGRUMPY619MIX]

i was there i took my doughter at 1st my doughter was scared but later she wanted to stay i didnt pay screw that lol i didnt see that part damnnn i wanted to see the people reaction

[mayush99999]

Why do they still use some single piston propelled engine fixed planes? they could have used some SCRAM jets .. though these planes are fast, but the new ones are like Rookie..

[CAinfowarrior]

i was there chambliss F**kin blew it. ..sad.

[rocketeer549]

The best Air Action video on YouTube is "Born to Fly Airplanes". Fly Now !

[cheescalovesmallows]

He said he felt sorry for the bird.

[pb2xtrent]

wait so when they said he "over G-ed" that means he passed out right?

[chevypower95]

No. if he passed out he'd be dead.

"over G" is a penalty for pulling over 12gs at any point in the run. it's there for the pilots protection.

[xxHaloVidsxx]

ya the hosts need to get kicked but other then that this sport looks cool

[ppvajayjay]

that bird got knocked the fuck out

[4468861989]

lol the hosts are homos

[rurokenshin4]

wow thats messed,for trying to hard? he's giving it his all !! gosh... haha poor bird,it got hit! =(

[BoeingFreak12345]

And it got killed.

[GoombaDaddy]

it didn't suffer long at least

[JAROSLAVAGINA]

penalty for over-g? how lame.

[MustachioFurioso91]

yeah, but you gotta understand that the last thing they need is a pilot passing out while flying, with the amount of spectators and the urban setting of some of these races, that would be very dangerous.

[JAROSLAVAGINA]

yeah i guess that's true.

[Swams555]

yeah that does kind of suck but it is necessary as the mustache says. they should have some sort of time limit i mean they said it was only a tenth of a second he cant pass out that quick so why not have a time limit in which you can (Over-G)

[2muchskill4you]

Mr Pelican had found Nemo and was transporting Nemo back to his dad when POW!! an airplane hit him. RIP Mr Pelican

[Josephiner1]

RIP pelican!

Poor guy..

[wistals2deniks]

This sport though incredibly dangerous and stupid to do is in my opinion the best racing sport on the world.

[r32adt3db]

these pilots make it look so easy!

[avi8tor4fn]

That pelican had guts. I'm serious, I saw them. The US pilot lost points for pulling 12.1 G's? That is a LOT of G's.

[ncktbs]

fighter plane piant ball anyone!!  that would be cool

[Pouncer3]

I second that!!!

[Sleepinglion22]

You would need some big ass co2 tanks....

[AmericanAirlinesRule]

Who cares about the bird! What about the aircraft?

[Chick6517]

CRAZY man ... that was too funny you guys are gonna keep me luaghing all day .... haha very creative [=

[turbocharged9906]

shame on the pelican the sun news paper has a better picture of before and after the incident. R.I.P. birdie

[bernardirs]

I love it!

[ChopperX]

[SgtRevan]
