Is this the scariest fly-by video ever? Footage shows Hercules swooping just FIVE metres over heads of onlookers

The daredevil pilot of this Hercules aircraft risked life and limb - and the heads of terrified onlookers - when he skimmed the plane just five metres above the ground.
Cruising at 220mph, the Swedish Air Force's C-130 is seen dipping over trees to dangerously sweep across a field.
Once the mission, branded by its now suspended pilot as 'a bit of fun', is completed the aircraft pulls up soaring back into the Scandinavian sky.

While the footage from 2008 may not be new, its resurfacing on the internet has come at a particularly poignant time.

Oh thats against the law in any country to fly so low. Suspension is the order of the day and could be followed by an arrest for endangering the people, himself, property and the aircraft. An irresponsible pilot.

come on, this type of pilot if he is flying fighter plane. In war time he will be a war hero.
Like Werner Voss and M. von Richthofen.

 

[sadshishamo]

if he does this in war and in enemy territory and comes back alive then he is on his way to being a war hero. Peacetime conditions do not encourage this display of gung hoism. Just imagine a few cars driving at high speeds and tailgating one another. This is a recipe for an accident.

peace time is the time you recruit potential war heroes, so in war time, they will win the war for you. he got massive potential.

 

[sadshishamo]

There are areas for low flying exercises but these do not include public areas. They can hone their skills in the designated areas.

such bravery are not hone or can be learn , they are born with it.

 

[sadshishamo]

Nature always has to be nurtured. Just like in soccer even the best player needs to practise and develop his skills.

such bravery are not hone or can be learn , they are born with it.

A briliant feat by Ernest udet. The past-master of German aerobatics started the Flamingo in a curve close above the ground and thereby lifted a handkerchief from the ground by means of a device attached to the tip of a wing.



Crowds of thousands flocked to the flying fields when Udet flew. All that that past-master of aviation had learnt from aerial combat and many years' experience was collected in his exhibition flights to form a splendid experience of flying. He combined rolls, loops, and steep turns to form a series of breathtaking bounds and dives. He would climb with roaring engine steeply into the sky and swing himself earthwards again, almost noiselessly but for the roaring of the relative wind blustering round him, in a whole series of loopings, while the propeller was idle. He would whirl flat over the ground, nip up a handkerchief from the ground with the tip of a wing, to fly next moment upside down over the flying field, and a few seconds later lay once more in a steep bank over the runway. That was flying, such as mankind had dreamt of. Wings have been given to man that enable him to rise into the wind like a bird and exultingly to play with the elements. Was it possible to surpass such feats of flying, could new avenues still be opened up for aerobatics?

An exhibition like this is ok. But it is not ok if you fly FIVE metres over the heads of onlookers as stated in the first post. Its just too dangerous.

have you seen red bull aerobatics live??

thank god you are not recruiter of singapore air force, if not, we will have an air force of scholars and no warrior.

 

[sadshishamo]

I've been to the Farnborough Airshow more than once.

Normal routine for Hercules to fly very low while dropping supplies while on the go

 

[sadshishamo]

You cant be 100% sure of your statement.

[sadshishamo]

Nothing wrong with that as long as it is in their exercise area and definitely not 5 metres above people.
