They have to pump the blood in their faces otherwise they'll pass out from lack of blood to the brain, and in an acrobatics aircraft that's plain deadly.
It actually does, but as they keep practicing the age does not afect them. Remember your brain is like a muscle, if you use it it will be in shape, if not it goes bad.
I recall speeds around 200 to 250 knots mentioned during the broadcasts, I would imagine the offical red bull air race web site would have more precise info.
I'm sure they used the zoom function on the camera mounted on the helicopter during the run. If you download the ten network qualifying broadcast in Australia they show the helicopter with it's camera setup, and even show it making a run down the course. (I think the helicopter hit a pylon during a prerace event sunday too.)
If you look at the races tv broadcasts, several times you see the helicopter flying around taking video during the actual runs.

This is the first one I've seen where they were not competing over water. The danger factor here is insane.

I think that if they hit the water at the speed they fly at during competition (well over 200 MPH) the results would be pretty much the same.
I can't wait for the new season to start.

You can see them pumping the blood into their faces when they're pulling G's.

Just wondering... how did they film the shot in between 4:09 and 4:17 ???

The Red Bull Air Race has helicopters that fly during the runs, I assume one acted as a chase plane.

Puase it at 2:08 and you can see one of the copters, so that theory is true (I dunno about the copter hitting the pylon though...)

Ya but when it switches Shaots at 4:17 You Can't See The Helicopter... Very Strange
BIGME317 4 years ago
The timing on the first chorus ( about 1:24 ) is a little off, but I love Foo Fighters and Air Race World Series, so great vid. GO MIKE MANGOLD !!!!!
