That's not a river...
...that's the San Francisco bay. You can clearly see Alcatraz in the background. This video was taken at the Fleet Week air show that takes place every October. I've personally been out on the bay during Fleet Week and watched the Blue Angels perform passes that low, and yes it really is as amazing as it looks in the video. On a side note... they are not going supersonic, and the cloud is just water vapor.

it must be forbidden to fly supersonic at that low altitudes...

Hooded
LMAO! That bird almost got hooded!!!

- Wrong
  Do you realize how big those jets are? They are around 60 feet long and 45 feet across. The bird is closer to the camera than the jet and in no danger of being hit. Unless of course the bird is 30 feet across.

- Yeah I do!!!
  I've been in Military for the Last 4yrs. soo i have a little idea! I said it got hooded in the sense that it looked like it. If the jet would've hit the bird there woulda been feathers everywhere.. But thanks tho!

- Nice attempt
  at back peddling. And just because you're in the military doesn't mean you know how big an F 18 is. Hell, for all we know, you could have been on a sub under the arctic. Being in the military doesn't prove a thing for you. Just admit it, you were tricked by an optical illusion.

Blue Angels
This is one of the Blue Angels during their last exhibition flight over the San Francisco Bay. The Golden Gate Bridge is to the left of the first image in the movie, and the pilot pulls up turning left towards the Bay Bridge. This was the year that one of the pilots flew low, between buildings in the financial district. You've got to see the Blue Angles fly!

Oh please!
This is so NOT real. Animated jet fighter flying over water. Please. It's a little too tiny to actually be a fighter.

Well Yeah you're right being in the military dosen't prove anything except that I'm doin something that you couldn't begin to understand what balls it takes to do what i do for a living. And actually I don't have to prove shit to someone who doesn't mean shit to me doggie.

Great video.
Aircraft is nowhere near super sonic. The "compression wave" is nothing but water vapour pulled up by the Aircraft pass close to the water. I have a photograph that was given to me when I worked at the Airport showing an aircraft flying close to the surface of a lake and pulling a V shaped wake behind it.

Not Supersonic
Too low for supersonic, going too slow also, fast enough for the vapour caused by the shock wave to be visible

Wow, this is amazing!
I have never seen so many people yammering about things they know nothing about.
Q:What are the fastest and slowest speeds flown during an air show?
The fastest speed is about 700 mph (just under Mach 1; Sneak Pass) and the slowest speed is about 120 mph (indicated speed)

5 STARS MAN
CAN U TELL ME AT THE STARTING OF THE CLIP WHAT ALMOST CROSS THE JET.

- Optical illusion
  If you stop-start the vid and watch your middle left side, it's a seagull, but it didn't come close to connecting with the jet. It soared into the picture at about the same time when the jet's air displacement disturbed the water. It only looked as if it hit the bird. The bird was quite safe.
  By muggee 1211526485 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove ~~3956339~~
Not so amazing
That is one of the Blue Angels, US Navy Aireal Demonstration team. What he's doing is a Mach .9 low pass.

They are only allowed to fly that low in very limited airspace and over some even more limited areas near population centers, such as over a river, lake or other open body of water. They have to dial it back a bit once they are directly over population centers unless they gain enough altitude so as to not affect them. Mach one (+) flight over population centers is restricted by the FAA.
