Reno, Nevada 'Air-Race/Show' horrible crash. Plane crashed directly into crowd of

[cannabisguru]

Watch this video.. and someone explain to me how the hell this plane didn't explode?!?! And... if you watch where the plane hits, when it crashes into the ground.. and into the crowd of people.. explain to me how people were able to just get up and walk away!?!?

I mean, there's a couple of people that were sitting on the bulls-eye mark, where the plane hit the freaking ground.. and you can clearly see those people get up and walk away from it. Freaking incredible!! Tell me that wasn't a freaking miracle... heh.

Man, I wish I could find some better footage though. I want to see the footage of the entire accident. I want to see the plane coming to the ground.. and I want to see it actually hit the crowd.. I know that sounds terrible of me.. but, its my natural human curiosity.

Check out the video: (best one I can find so far.. best angle anyhow)

here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRm5-a-c9pU&feature=related

if you find a better angle of this accident.. please post it.

thanks.

Change your source to LiveLeak for footage you won't see on YouTube... here's what you requested...

Now, it is my professional opinion that the trim tab on the horizontal stabilizer came loose and started fluttering, this trim tab has a wide degree of movement and its coming loose would essentially equate to the pilot holding a jack hammer in his hand, rapid back and forth movement of the control stick.

Here you can see that it is loose:

And here you don't see it at all, it had probably sheared off and at this point the aircraft was headed towards a nose dive at over 300mph, the Energy of the aircraft powered it through the pitch:

In a sense of easing what Jimmy (a man I have met on 2 occasions) was going through at the end... it looks like he may have been blacked out due to the extreme G forces or perhaps was just in a brace position...

wow..how many people died?

 

[r1tony]

Damn. Bravo for the man saving lives for sure, RIP.

Yes that is the Galloping Ghost in its final moments.

Don't worry, I gave him what he wanted, you don't have to watch it.

 

[......]

I seen the atermath vid somewhere,Some people lost limbs but it wasn't close to as bad as it could of been.

 

[......]

and it's not the first time someone crashed at this event

 

[SocataSmoker]

Indeed quite lucky to have only 10 people dead, could have been much worse...

Luckily at the speed and angle it was going at, it practically disintegrated instead of tumbling around and exploding...

 

[SocataSmoker]

Nope, not the first and certainly not the last... but that's life, shit is gonna happen...

Last thing we need though is some nanny-state BS about cancelling airshows due to safety concerns, people that go to these events should be fully aware of the possibilities that can occur during them.

how about simply not flying over INNOCENT spectators?

women and child should not be put at risk for enjoyment purposes.

"if you go to an airshow you should expect to risk dying."

GTFO

Ah... you have absolutely no idea of what you are talking about...


How about the fact that the pilot simply had no control over where he was going?

As you see in the video, they do no fly over the spectators but instead are about 400 yards away from them IN a turn, TURNING away from the crowd...


This pilot had next to nil control if his control stick is acting as a jack hammer, turns are IMPOSSIBLE.


Oh, the women and children, oh my oh my... please, I'll say it again.

People should KNOW the risks associated with any sort of entertainment event that involves gasoline, high speed, and awesome aircraft


And yes, they should expect death as a possible RISK to an air show... shit happens, apparently you live in a dream world where all is fine and lollipops shoot up from the ground.

Let me guess... you thoroughly enjoy snuff videos too right? *Sigh* I've known a few people who are absolutely enamored by any random video where people lose their lives, sometimes violently and gruesomely. I've just never understood people who were into that, and I just find it to be extremely disrespectful... that people seek out these videos essentially just for their own entertainment, to "watch people die". "To each their own" I guess... but personally I think its just creepy and abnormal.

No offense to OP or anyone else in here... just my thoughts.

400 yards?


maybe take better care of your equipment. you just killed 9 people trying to be a showoff.

take some responsibility and stop trying to blame innocent people.

 

[Balzac89]

I saw a video of a guy whose leg was severed just below the thigh he wasn't so lucky no were the 9 people who were killed.

Who is blaming anyone?

Shit fucking happens dude, it's rare... how many times a day to people die in car wrecks vs. how many die a day in planes?


You're quite illogical today, aren't you... or maybe just argumentative... I'm honored.

he even states that is creepy, then continues to BEG for more.

now you make it about me?

you are defending the pilot and blaming those in the crowd for being there in the first place. at least that's what i'm seeing.

you're a pilot. your opinion is biased.
