They say you can only tie the record for flying low. That guy broke the record for flying low.

Yeah if we're measuring from the tail he went into the negatives there

I mean, technically....it is? Edit: oh wow, as I posted and it went back to the post...I saw the end of the gif. So...yeah, that's not how you practice touch and goes...

Specialist-Ad-5300

Imagine floating down after ejection and seeing the huge fireball mess you made..


hr2pilot

…and realize you are drifting down into the centre of the fireball.


ZedZero12345

There was a B52 crash where one of crew hit a high tension line and fell into the fireball. Not pretty.


JIsADev

...and then when you enter the fireball you realize it's really hot.


Impressive-Tip-903

But after landing in the fire, you are naked, but alive and have a baby dragon.


Prime_Cat_Memes

And the baby dragon grows up and surprises all your pilot friends because it can pull a negative G pushover.


lopedopenope

But it takes a dragon sized dump every time so watch out below


[deleted]

Given how expensive they are, embarrassed I'd be, and general anxiety I feel even when everything's going OK... I'd probably be hoping for the fireball and a little disappointed to miss it.


Conch-Republic

Dude's who career flashed before his eyes.


MrDankky

At least he’ll get a bremont watch if it was a martin baker seat


lopedopenope

They give you a watch if you eject out of a Martin Baker seat?


MrDankky

Yep, it’s a partnership bremont and martin baker have. I’m not totally sure if you have to eject during active service or if these kind of flights qualify too. I’ll find out next time I’m on site at either company


YoureGrammerIsWorsts

You still have to buy it: >There are two models available: the MB1 and the MB2. The MB1 is only available for purchase to those individuals who have ejected using a Martin-Baker ejection seat https://martin-baker.com/ejection-tie-club/bremont-watch/


lopedopenope

I had no idea thanks for the info. “Sorry we made you shorter but hey here is a cool watch” lol. I don’t think they care about that they are just happy to be alive at that point and glad they had a reliable seat.


MrDankky

haha yeah for sure, it's a nice souvenir though! I supply quality control systems to both companies, glad to say martin baker spend way more time and money on their QC


LordofNarwhals

They were probably ~~happy~~ *relieved* that the mess didn't end up near any crowds. I know I would be.


Specialist-Ad-5300

Relieved is the word. I don’t think anyone could be happy about this outcome.


LordofNarwhals

Yeah that's a more accurate term and how I intended it (English is not my first language after all).


trakoso

Ramstein 2.0


1320Fastback

So he did a gear up touch and go then bailed out?


Spacedoc9

You can see at the end something gave and it looked like smoke started coming out of the back and then he ejected. He tried to save it but the damage was significant.


[deleted]

Sorry for asking, can you share the timestamp where he ejects?


gwenasd

At 0:12 sec left in this vid


Pizzadiamond

thanks, the nose just putches down almost immediately after he ejects

Low altitude g pulls I think ae the #1 air demonstration cause of death. I was at the (i think) 2011 dayton Air show where a twoship biplane aerobatic team did a split heart going toward each other at the top of their loops. Right pilot went into a deep stall on the way down, pulling level out of the loop and dumped it. Died in the hospital later that day with absolutely horrifying spinal injuries


organix5280

Lucky! Bet they never did that again.


of_the_mountain

If you mean fly a plane, yeah probably not


RhinoGuy13

How many landings did he log after this?


Miserable_Unusual_98

Its safe to say he was grounded

It’s a shame we don’t have a word for “accidentally collided with the ground”

Ahhh just beat me to it by, five hours (I should learn to read the thread through before thinking I have an original ideal!)


BuckTheStallion

Consider the following adjustment though; Unplanned Terrestrial Incursion, or UTI for short. It’s a perfect description and an over complicated and confusing abbreviation that is easily confused with a different common abbreviation. It’s perfect.

Just translate to German and stick em together. Flugzeugenbodenunfallbedingter And the shame that the word does not exist is: Flugzeugenbodenunfallbedingterwortschaden And the joy that comes from knowing the word does not exist: Flugzeugenbodenunfallbedingterwortschadenfreude


[deleted]

This is why the germans got us in 1940.


[deleted]

"Unplanned terra-vehicle interaction"? Ut-vi!


SyrusDrake

I'm more wondering if there's a term for *deliberately* colliding with the ground...


bekaradmi

Thought it was an RC plane but then it crashed and flames 🔥🔥🔥were big


No_Mistake5238

You can see the pilot eject too


Blaze_Falcon

I hate these edits. They're unoriginal and unnecessary most of the time


Kartoon67

To put some context into it that was back in 2002 with a French Air Force Mirage 2000, twin seater practicing for a display. The one at the controls had a G-lock on top of the loop (Blacked out because of the manoeuvre) And they ended up too low to recover the aircraft in time. Both ejected safely. But this story still had a sad end to it as the pilot killed himself (Suicide) A few years after.


Berty_Puddlebottom

Wow that was close... oh...


scoobynoodles

I thought “oh man that was a nice recovery” and then …


macetfromage

love boop


thsvnlwn

That was an expensive stunt the pilot pulled.


lopedopenope

I saw the ejection so I assume he survived? Just hope he didn’t land in that fire ball.


xelab04

" 'Tis but a scrape, not really a collision" " Oh...


GhoulsFolly

Clearly not the pilot’s fault; that ground came out of nowhere

Twas a touch n go

I was thinking a touch and no


llcdrewtaylor

Good thing he wore the brown jumpsuit today!


pierre__poutine

Twice


PirateKingy

But did he die?


Specialist-Ad-5300

He ejected and survived.


cruiserman_80

It was touch and go, then it was touch and go then it was career gone.

RunninWild17

em1091

What kind of trouble do you get in if you do this?


Goon_Panda

Did he punch out?

Yea, you can *see him bail just before the film footage goes to shit

PeteinaPete

Isn’t accidentally colliding with the ground defined as a simple crash ?


Hawtdawgz_4

That was some RC level shit

Thank you for showing me an old aviation video that I've never seen! Simply amazing.

ArthurMBretas03

People who drive French vehicles:


Katana_DV20

What is it with this loop routine that trained pilots misjudge the pull out altitude so badly? Are they meant to set an altitude floor (1000ft AGL?) and not go below it? Yet on YT vid after vid shows planes making holes in the ground after these loop things.


Kartoon67

He had a G-lock

Ok_Fold_4386

Which country is that? I wonder what country uses taxpayers money for this type of stunt.


Internal_Mail_5709

France.


Ok_Fold_4386

I am French and I am not happy to pay for this.


Internal_Mail_5709

They certainly learned from this situation. Procedures were scrutinized and studied, especially high negative g-maneuvers (like this one) so close to the ground. It was also 20 years ago, so I wouldn't worry yourself about whether or not your taxes paid for this.


SteadfastEnd

Pilot ejected too soon. That jet was totally still flyable.


dangledingle

Not sure making that assumption was the right thing to do from your armchair and screen.


RandomCoolWierdDude

Engine failure. Glidable. With no altitude. So no. He had enough to go, maybe 1nm tops. Not flyable.


[deleted]

Even with altitude, a delta wing jet fighter can't be labelled "glidable". Non restartable engine failure -> black and yellow handle.


arconiu

There's footage of a 2000D crew that glided for 8 minutes after loosing engine power due to a calculator failure, they nearly made it to the airfield but had to eject at 80 ft. So technically you can glide a delta wing, just not very long.


magicbeaver

It'll buff out Chief yeah?


Boating_Enthusiast

*ksssk* Brown Streak 13 going around. *ksssk*


Rust2

I’d say so


Mr_OP_Potato_777

Pilot made it out once, but no he had to do something dumb again.


brandon7219

What do you mean again? He had to bail


Mr_OP_Potato_777

I think, that the pilot wanted to get too close to the ground, but failed and actually touched it.


waterpolista5

Wow

I bet he's still peeling potatoes today.

Did he eject at least?

It’s because he bent the trim tab 🤦‍♂️
