Truly Amazing Videos - gotta love YouTube...
« on: December 12, 2013, 08:05:53 PM »
Post a video link here if it:


- is totally amazing that you know others will appreciate; AND
- is 2 mins in length or less.


Exceptions will be made for slightly longer vids, but only if they are TRULY AMAZING and will captivate us all for the entire time - like this one for example...


- - MOST - EXTREME - SPORT - ♛ - ✔ 320kmh_IRISH_ROAD_RACING - ✔ Ulster_GP_NW200_Isle of Man TT



No adult content, discrimination or violence - just 'WOW!' factor vids.        :-(((


And lastly - minimal comments in this thread unless it accompanies an AWESOME vid clip.       :law
 
Cheers, Diesel

That is truly amazing!  It obviously requires virtually no wind and precision flying.
I deduce there is a very powerful engine in the big box driving a shaft to the blades.  Probably a fuel line in the boom from the heli.

I've always thought if you weren't that concerned about damaging your bike ie it belongs to the local Police force, you would push the leans and banking just that little bit more. After all it's practice for the large part.

I acknowledge hardworking Australians no matter who they are or where they come from. All those who have contributed to this wonderful country deserve an equal share of gratitude for their contributions. To single any group of individuals out for special homage only denigrates the rest of us.

Luckily for everyone this level of skill requires more dedication to learn than modern baddies possess.
Any mug can point a gun.  If they need more "skill" they buy/steal and automatic.

A bit of a further look at Youtube brings out the sceptics:

I thought he bouncy technique might not be so good, as no self respecting sabre toothed roo is going to hang around by some one who would be making a lot of noise as he bounced of a tree/rock or what ever...

That is so cool!!
It's like being inside a computer game.
Won't be long before someone gets whacked by one and then there will be tears.
I'd definitely need to start at a much slower speed!
