Hey Ron.. some awesome footage in that video.

gus · 10-04-2004, 09:12 PM

Just a head's up... Yes, it is spectacular, a compilation of a lot of full-scale crashes where the endings mostly are not hmmm, repairable with CA. i.e. people died in these clips.

This sort of warning is needed because I think "cool" is not the right adjective for them. Don't be mislead.

3 mins and 13 seconds into that clip

The guy landing the big 747? you gotta give him a little credit

Rob · 10-05-2004, 04:40 AM

I have seen the one crash before of the 747 that looked like it was landing. The post said it was done by the first computer controlled landing and some one did some bad calculations.

Full scale planes killing people, IMHO is not cool. Very sad and disturbing. I watched the first two and closed the window. Models getting totaled is cool, not people. Can you imagine how the families of the people killed in those crashes feel?

MANY people died in those...........in fact as far as the ones I've seen before.........I remember seeing the videos and reading about......the total is 218.....the most being the hijacked liner in the sea (117) and the Ramstein Germany AFB jets collision (75 in the crowd mostly burnt from the fuel).
The most memorable one of all for me is the one there where the twin plane's wings snap off in a loop attempt. He had just dropped off a NBC news camerawoman before that and his wife was commentating as he was performing the loop..........I still can hear her screams to her (husband-pilot), screaming goodbye to him as he was pirouetting toward the ground.... his mic was on all the way down.

Disturbing indeed.

Colin · 10-05-2004, 05:51 PM

Very sad, I feel for all of those who knew the people personally.

Even with the warning, people who are offended still go and watch it.

Cool wasn't meant to describe the deaths, it was meant to describe the spectacular video footage.
A lot of the scenes had amazing last minute "saves" as well.
All of these video clips have been posted on here and every aviation site time and again. Most have been shown on several different prime-time television shows.
I found it interesting (cool) the way it was all put together.
I do NOT find people dying cool, please do not label me with that.

I have deleted it so as not to offend anyone else.

I didn't mean to offend you ronm, or mean to get you to take the vid off. I hope I was not the culprit

I understand how you feel. I personally just don't like to see things like that...just knowing someone was inside it makes me cringe. That's what the board is for though right...opinions

I should have noted the warning.
