What safety? Is he mad?

Take a look at this: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHaSSIl-ckI]YouTube - Catch the HK450[/ame]

not doing the sport any favours if it went wrong.........

[Janek]

The only issue is the safety of other that might be nearby. But even they didn't seem bothered from their relaxed conversational tones.

Apart from the above, the pilot is doing what he chooses to do, accepting the potential risks.

The Nanny State mentality is going way too far into the personal freedoms that enable us to make idiots of ourselves

[Gav]

what a MUPPET! Talk about putting yourself at risk.

35Meg's as well. Hope he don't suffer a glitch!!!!

Idiotic with people standing nearby imho.

lf that was A S we would all be saying how wonderfull it was.

Not me

I think some of A S 's stunts have been idiotic as well.

Guys

It's a 450 sized at a lowish headspeed and it's only him that's taking the risk.

I personaly don't think it's a clever thing to do but as Janek said it's his choice!

Does not look too sensible, my problem with it is that whilst its only him at risk its others that would have to sort him out afterwards and it would not be pretty!
I cannot imagine many clubs being happy with that behaviour.

I hate the Nanny state as much as anyone Bob.

My point is why film it and then post on Youtube for the Nanny state to see and then condone ALL of us to their rules?

Personally couldn't give a t@ss if he flies into himself, but don't give the NS evidence on a plate that's all.

Just my 2p.

I have to hand launch and catch my 250 all the time when the skids get snapped off - I've got an idea! Lets ban heli's and eliminate all the risk of getting hurt. Oh, and ban screwdriver's as theyre sharp, might slip and stab yourself in the leg...

Hi Mark

Going from his name I don't think he is in the UK, different countries have different ideas of what's acceptable and safe.

If you have access to the ALign funfly DVD check out the air battle to get a idea of what's clearly acceptable over there but would be a H&S night mare over here, bloody good fun it was to:-)))))))))))


Might was well complain about all the butt rocket clips on youtube for all the good it would do, mine you there fun to watch too but just leave for others to do!

Dont get me wrong, I dont want a NS either. I just thought a 450 rotor disc at eye level was madness.

On the other hand, if the worst had of happened, it would be a more popular Youtube vid!!

[Tosh]

Does anyone know of a SAFE sport?
