  • Looks like his left wing clipped the tree which spun him around.

  • WOW! Crazy pilot...

  • That's precisely why John was banned from RB speedrun competition.

  • Cooooooooooooooooolooping

    

  • Cooooooooooooooooolanding

  • @SeanWyseman what botched flare. it was a planned groundloop landing

  • that is the most badass landing i have ever seen. Incredible flying as well. Highly dangerous. This guy is in total control of his glider, and his bowels. I wouldnt want to try that not even at cloudbase, but it's sure cool

  • Radical! Wonder if he's still alive?

  • Famous pilot Chris Muller died doing stunts of that caliber. Glad to hear this guy has stepped back from the crazy stuff a bit. I admire the technique and I'm glad I got to see it. But thank God he quit while he was ahead. At that speed a wingtip catching the water is enough for an accident that could snap the pilots neck. I love how he recovered the botched flare on landing. One of the most natural pilots I've seen.

  • was that guy at the end Terry the cop??
