  • looks great for the environment

    

  • AHHHH.......AMERICA

  • ejector seat? wont that plumit you like 1000000000000000000 miles into dead space? lol

  • So instead of the astronauts dying from what ever made them have to eject, the ejector seats are going to crush them to death, great news for astronauts.

  • What would this eject you from? The pits of hell?!?!

  • Congratulations NASA, the earth has now changed it's orbit around the sun. 

  • yeah 5 G's :)

  • Human torch just fapped

  • Chuck Norris' BBQ grill. 

  • I don't even know what happened...I saw nothing in the air. was there a chair on that thing that flew up super fast?

  • more like an incineration seat... FORM HELL!!! O_O or the devil's WC ^_^

  • inability of people to read or read the op comments at the top never ceases to amuse, the moron nascar fans and their single digit IQ's a branchless family trees used to be droll but now is merely tedious...

  • fuck utah

  • ...and then let them cool for a minute or two, and your potatoes should be ready to serve!

  • IS THAT A SEAT? i gonna sit there!

  • I wonder how much G force that is

  • When did China say they were starting their own Space Program?

  • @jonathan97s as soon as the american launched their Space program?

  • @jonathan97s You should check out Xinhua's Space section under the Sci/Tech page.

  • Beavis just lit another fart.

  • This ejects the ENTIRE crew cabin, not just the seats. This is a "Launch Escape System". The LES sits at the tip of the main rocket. The LES rockets shown here are upside down for testing. If the main rocket has trouble someone hits the "I feel lucky" button. The crew cabin module then separates from the main rocket while the LES rockets fire, pulling the cabin away. When the LES rockets burn-out parachutes deploy to bring the crew back to Earth. You can see LES towers on top of Apollo rockets.

  • @noahspurrier sadly I doubt more than 5 people who watch this will know what you are talking about.

  • i wonder if they will go so fast that they will hit the ceiling before the top comes off?

  • I thought this said nascar =/

  • All in all, a rocket to get in safety from a rocket... Am I the only one who sees the irony?

  • so.. the idea is to fry the pilot?

  • Isn't it safer to stay in the rocket?

    

  • my dad worked on that xD

  • who's chuck noris?

  • I wish the title wasn't as misleading.. This isn't an ejector seat, It's the LES, It lifts the entire capsule and crew away from the exploding rocket and high enough to deploy a parachute

  • What does this eject them from, LIFE???

  • Is it meant to eject you to another planet???

  • @RandomDirectors

    It is used as a abort stage (stage = a capsule to abort flight with) Not a seat but it certainly ejects you.

    It is jettisoned along with the first rocket stage when its already travelling at mach 7+

    If something goes wrong before that, the abort stage can be ejected so the astronauts can parachute in the sea.

    Thats what this is for.

    HOwever, I dont see how this is next gen. Seems more like a replica of the saturn five, oh heck its constellation.

    How will sls abort stage look?

  • "which will mean the astronauts in the escape vehicle will have to endure G-force of several times a standard Shuttle launch."

    Oh gross. Pancake astronauts.

  • Ass burner ...

  • That aint nothing compared to Chuck Noris' Farts!

  • Honestly, can any of you explain how the hell they pin that rocket down for testing?

  • I know its sounds stupid but this i like KNO3 + sugar about 20 kilogram :D

  • I think I know what caused the east coast's earthquake..

  • Thought Obama cancelled the shuttle program...

  • this is the real problem for global warning

  • @IaCrossI warming*

    

  • this is the real problem for polution

  • El objetivo era quemar la bandera yankee, pero dispusieron mal el dispositivo

  • That's more dangerous than usefull, i don't want to sit on that!

  • @Dick4YouFaker Well, you've got a choice of a half a million pounds of thrust flinging you into the sky at 9 Gs, or staying behind with the rest of your rocket that's quickly devolving into a fireball hundreds of feet wide.

    I'll take the ejection, thank you very much.

  • @frogger626 I would just teleport myself down to the surface -.-

  • i think they wanna go out of the spaceship to the earth.

  • i knew that taco was a bad idea.

  • If the crash doesn't kill them, the G forces will.

  • So...having this strapped to your ass will better than a fiery explosion.

  • well ther's america for you

  • AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!

  • What's Next-Gen about it? That it shoots down? "The Next - Gen NASA Ejector Seat: Guaranteed to get the pilot to the ground faster than ever!" XD

  • @Locarco What direction do you go when you eject out of a plane? :3

  • @Locarco The motors are mounted facing upwards probably so the can actually SEE how it burns....

  • Comment removed

  • I´d hate to have that shit strapped to my ass.

  • fuck chuck norris and you norris rim job giver

  • I'd rather crash than be subjected to that much force. :P

  • 0:03 holy shit! 

  • Take cover !!! :))

  • ahhh yes, the best way to escape is by having an enormous fuckin flame blast up your asshole. NICE!

  • Who needs a launch rocket. Just strap on one of these are you are going to the moon.

  • holy s%#t did anyone else see the waste of money in the video?

  • I wonder how they are going to scrape the chunky salsa (which is all that's left of you after you get exploded out of your cockpit) from the bottom of your chair...

  • THERE WERE NO ANIMALS HARMED DURING THE MAKING OF THIS TEST!!!, meh only 20 polar bears...

  • eject 90 km whit this xD

  • yeah, the last thing I want to do is be strapped to one of those getting shot out of a space shuttle that contains 500,000 gallons of super-cold liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen fuel.

  • "NASA Next-Gen Ejector Seat" Oh, cool. *click* ......BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOM. Well, that didn't work.

  • wow, talk about over the top ejecting right there....

  • Comment removed

  • @tfmotocross28 axxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaxaaxax­axxa

  • @gouzounakis oh, and i think this was the reaction when chuck norris held up a lighter and farted

  • @tfmotocross28 You dont know that.....

  • this may be gaz rig workplace

  • haha imagine if they put the rockets in upside down like this in a jet.. it would make you crash faster !

  • firecracker LOL

  • You can launch some hum-vees to mars with that

  • Is it ejecting you with Flame throwers???

  • well for what is this thing thought? Flying to the moon after eject?

  • they launch the capsule upside down!!..loooool

  • fiew... getting warm in here

  • it works! who wants to ride it first?

  • So that's how they are going to get to Mars ^_^

  • Chuck Noris's cigaret lighter

  • That thing is like a scaled down model of the Annihilatrix from Frisky Dingo. Who is the project manager for this N.A.S.A. project? Killface?

  • OMG! Justin bieber ejecting! xD

  • i loled

  • would love to see NASA on Aprils fools, oh hay Buddie, ya there's a free seat here.....

  • You may live...However, you would have 4th degree burns on your ass.

  • @nesokretep -- ah. well the title says ejectoer seat so i figured it was a seat

  • I hope this isnt an ejector seat lol fuck thatd eject you out into space xD

  • how is this an ejector seat?!

  • @MekeyBurton -- It's not a "seat." But it is an ejection rocket that is designed to pull the entire manned space capsule away from the launch vehicle if anything goes wrong anywhere from the launch pad up to a couple dozen miles in altitude, which is the most dangerous part of the launch.

  • sa sa ejecte en osti

  • mansizes.ru

    

  • american deciding to burn pilot, so as not to torment.

    )))))

  • scary :-/

  • someone havent had an orgasm lately...

  • Couldn't that much G-force kill you?

  • @xSchiism breaking easily your neck xD

  • nice bbq fire... makes me hungry... mmmhhhh....

  • lol

    

  • not to sure if i would want that on my back side tbh

  • i thought it was going to sound like a fwoop... not BLAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

  • Shit. My. Kegs. 

  • this tosser cant spell

  • hmm....i want one of these in my caar."STUPID TRAFFIC JAMS!!!" *pushes red button that says emergency* *BOOM* *people*OHHHHH AHHHHHH

  • If thats what the new ejections seat are like I fucking want one!!!!

  • When you run out of missiles, use your passenger's seat. :P

  • burn my fat american stereotypical ass please, i appreciate it.

    tips are accepted with great thanks..

  • I think this is not ejector, it's more like..ASS BURNER..O_O

  • Yeah... exactly....ejector seat..... nothing else....

  • so.... its supposed to light us in flames as we eject from a cockpit?

  • LONG LIVE MOTHER RUSSIA

  • long live mother russia

  • dear santa...

  • @jordododo LONG LIVE MOTHER RUSSIA

  • @cookiemonster0626 LONG LIVE QUEEN BEATRIX FROM THE NETHERLANDS

  • @jordododo haha it was my friend messing with my account :-D but yeah haha they're both valid statements and I wonder which one will outlive the other :-P

  • @cookiemonster0626 won't matter as long as they don't start shooting at each other :P

  • @jordododo exactly :-)

  • looks painful lol

  • I think the earth moved away from the sun a bit when this video was recorded.

  • far...far away...

    

  • its called the grill seat

  • what's the point of ejecting if it kills you in the process damn....

  • Jesus how far they gonna eject the poor son of a bitch? I think that looked more like the old escape rockets from the Apollo program and NOT an ejection seat. Can you imagine the pilot "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH mother fucking son of a ........................so on and so forth , nope they'd go down with the plane first,

  • Ha ha, if it was not for nesokretep then I would have thought the seat is upside down :)

  • earth just moved 10 degrees after this test,.......

    XD

  • @martinzwanenburg -- Actually, you cannot move the earth 10 degrees by firing a rocket into the atmosphere. The inertia of the ejecta would act through the atmosphere as friction against the surface and counteract the firing of the rocket and the net result on the system as a whole would eventually be zero.

  • @nesokretep He was joking, nerd. Don't be such a pedantic dweeb.

  • @pudgimelon -- But I had FUN being a pedantic dweeb. In fact my entire purpose in giving the stuffy, overy-intellectual and even slightly arrogant-sounding explanation was to BE a pedantic dweeb and see if anyone would call me on it.

    :-)

  • @martinzwanenburg that would explain all the natural disasters we've been having

  • some thing like that would realy burn my ass

  • thats brilliant. if you burn the pilot to a crisp you dont need to come get him. i tell you, nasa has been working hard lately. (for those of you who cant tell, im kidding)

  • @tperedfox Well Done, or Crispy!!! Lol yeah I'm kidding also. They are a smart bunch of people. We need people like that, that works for NASA in every other industry, electronics, automobiles, smart homes, fuel, ect. Make us some new fuel that leaves no harmful anything, and provides unlimited power in the car battery size box. They could do it. Run our homes for Free, we have the capability we just to dumb to do it. haha

  • ...Gforce in a space shuttle is like 6gs

    In a jetplane goes from 6-13

    jetplane emergency eject is 16.

    NASA eject seat would be like 25

  • rockets explode suddenly without any warning. if the space men knew the rocket was gonna explode, they probably wouldnt get on the fuckin thing in the first place.

  • No no, this is the next generation of funerals. Instead of burying the body in the ground, they place your coffin on top of this and eject your corpse into space.

  • if they bolt it to a chiar its gonna eject the brain out the butt

  • Wish i Could Ejaculate like that...

  • I wish i had that on my shitter at home.

  • u could deploy that thing 10 ft above the ground and be 1,000 feet in the air by the end of that ride..O_o

  • what the f&%k is this ejecting you from life?????

  • @pjpilot617 lol I laughed pretty hard at this

  • @pjpilot617 lol i think it needs some work xD

  • @pjpilot617

    I think i might also launch my self to the sky with thees.

  • @pjpilot617 Away from an gigantic exploding missile right under your ass. ;)

    But I hear ya.

  • @pjpilot617: Yeah, pretty much. That's the best way to put it. LOL.

  • @pjpilot617

    lol

  • holy shit they do not fuck around i think id shit my pANTS IF SOMETHING LIKE THAT WENT OFF UNDERNEATH ME

  • My farts are better

  • When you need to get the hell out of there rapidly, just call NASA. The dramatic escape specialists

  • ... when "I'm out of here" just doesn't cut it.

  • looks more like the NASA ass cooker.

  • That thing scared me!

  • when blowing up one time is not enough you can blow up twice. NASA making sure its done right, for keeps.

  • We have lift off.

  • "3...2...1" BBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I guess NASA's determened to get those people into space...

  • Chuck Norris new garden bbq.

  • so, how do you escape from this flaming bit of death? somthing smaller i hope.

  • @datzfast

    you don't . that's the concept.

  • That reminds me of my ass the day after I told the smiling lady at the restaraunt, "No, THAI Hot".

  • i didnt see it

  • holy shit that scared me

  • 8O

  • Next gen my ass. This was considered a must-have once upon a time...

  • hmm.... where does the butt goes??

  • is that was an ejection seat, the g-forces applied to the astronaut would kill them instantaneously.

  • @applemacbook13 ... nah the orion weighs 25 tonnes - it will be nasty but not fatal plus they're lying flat.

  • "will have to endure the G-force of several times a standard Shuttle launch"

    Just to emphasize they're still fucked.
