Worst Landing Ever

Guys! This is a freaking model airplane, trust me!!! It is impossible for an aircraft that size to bounce up and down like that. The struts don't even absorb when the aircraft touches down, and it that where to have happened in real life trust me, the landing gear would have been damage, or worse the aircraft would have split in half. I'm a pilot my self, so I should know a thing or two.

An old beer-commercial actually..

One drunk guy ...

thank fuck i was not on that plane

welcome to jerkalot airways, sit down hang on and shut up.

Hi, I am not an expert. But I can say for sure this is the R/C remote control plane. The real plane can't be bouncing around like that. Or editing is possible.

...to raise and lower the nose? maybe they overcorrected a bounce, then overcorrected again as it hit the ground. I doubt it's actually carrying passengers, though, otherwise the airline office would be faced with 200 unhappy people and we would have heard about it on the news.

trust me guys it could happen infact I do it all the time
on video games
LoL

i am a pilot my self, but even i am unsure whether this is a model plane or the real aircraft, but i do know that if the aircraft landed with full load of passangers the impact of the landing would have caused some damage or severe damage to the landing gear. Its unclear which airline is this can someone tell...?

It's a Heinekan ad. Judging by the tire smoke, I'd say the plane is real. Probably a video of an aircraft with mechanical problems. The video clip just happens to look funny when viewed out of context. The so-called "complete" version is easy enough to find so no need to waste space posting it yet another time here. Sorry if I've spoiled the fun of arguing for nothing and about nothing.

I think it could be real: It could be a PAL 24fps video re-ripped to NTSC 30fps so the video may be a little fast.

The airbus uses an Electronic Flight Control System and my guess is he was landing down-wind and the Fly-by wire system took over when the Angle of attack got high enough to bang the tail. The pilot might have had the stick full back stick and the computer induced sensed an imminent tail strike.

If so, the EFCS may detect when the aircraft is within close proximity to the ground or on the ground and pitch the nose down to avoid damaging the tail. However, if the mains are on the ground at lower airspeed and a high rate pitch-up is initiated, the elevator and/or EFCS may not have enough authority to stop the pitch up, but if full up elevator is in place when the tail hits and the pilot lowers the stick or the tail stalls then a violent pitch down would likely result, as a result of the rapid pitch down the pilot instinctively yanks back on the stick and the process starts over again. Or at least that’s what it looks like to me.

I heard what happened to one of the early a320s, the computer thought the airplane was landing and ignored the pilot’s command for more pitch up in order to protect the tail from a strike. Instead it prevented the aircraft from climbing.

it looks pretty cool!!!

This a Dutch commercial . only 60 % is shown here.

In the end you can hear the man say "this is Kees Plokker your captain speaking welkom in the Netherlands and we wish the Austrian national soccer team 'good luck'in their match tonight against the Dutch national team ."
It's a joke and certainly not real !

IT COULD POSSIBLY BE A TEST LANDING TO TEST THE AIRCRAFTS LANDING ABILITIES

i waz there homy so u take it or nnot it real... i pop a cap up ur homdog ass beatch!

i think the pilot is drunk!

uhh pilot sir, can i see your drivers license???
lol

It is the second of a series of tests conducted by a french aviation company to test unmanned commercial airliners flown and landed by computer programs. The video of the first test is on the web aswell, in which the plane misses the runway alltogether and ploughs through the forest ahead, and eventually blowing up.

well i think its fake a plane of that size couldnot bounce like that without haveing any visible damage, and it kinda looks like the cokpit windows are stickers.

Is the pilot drunk?

FYI .....this is a old beer commercial with soccer players inside them.

i agree with what the pilot has wore it is nt vry believeable really shurly a pilot wuldnt make a landing that bad or hw wuldnt have been quallifyd der..!!!

I'll make this as polite as possible. My four year old could see this wasn't real. It's so obvious it beggars belief there are people who think it is....and these people sit on juries and vote??????!!!!!!!

pimped his flight

I didnt know that airplanes had hydrolics !! lol

the plane has hydrolics in the tires.. . . . . . its a pimp plane.... instead of pimp my ride.... now its pimp my plane.

Very funny video.I love the way the plane bounced....wants to look like soul plane.Maybe the tires got airbags on them....hahaha

1-> impossible to bounce that fast
2->when airplane bounce like that, what is impossible, it would fall apart... underacrriage wouldn`t stand it, just bang and we got crash

Why did they let Snoop Dog fly the plane? lol

I WISH I W AS IN THAT AIRBUS 320.SYYHT

Fake, fake, fake, fake....

this is obviously a model of a p-47 thunderbolt. it was a bomber used in world war 1, and typically carried cruise missles. but this is only a model of one fools.

i know someone who was on that plane!

This is not entirely real. The approach appears real due to the way the aircraft flies, but for two reasons the landing bit is faked, at least partially, or sped up (but I doubt that as it would roll down the runway faster).
1. Moment of momentum, or angular momentum, there is no way on earth that that aircraft upon bouncing up like that would pivot so fast on its rear undercarriage and then so quickly the nose changes direction to travel faster not slower towards the ground. That is well and truly faster acceleration downwards than g would produce.
2. The undercarriage will not take an impact like that, especially not 3 of them. One wheel is designed to manage more than its share of the weight of the aircraft landing at about twice any noral speed. In that film the nose wheel strikes with a fair amount of weight behind it and at about 5 times a normal speed, which equates to 25 times the kinetic energy, assuming only a third of the weight it was designed for is behind the wheel it is already 4 times over it's design limit.

how did the front wheel of the plane not break.

Jerking up and down like that would require working the rudder quite a lot. Here it does not move at all.

just enjoy

if U look carfully U can see a black PIMP pilot landing on this airport of lLOS ANGELES. by the wey this is SNOOP DOGS AIRPLANE.LOL

Who realy cares if it real or not just stop taking all the fun out of it you pack of whingers and just enjoy the vid

Come on people who cares if its real or not just enjoy the vid and stop annalysing the fun out of it.
u pack of whingers.

This is a dumb fake from an advertisement..

Wake up guys

I truly love this posting... especially the optics and video expert testimonials. You guys should get together and post the resulting fight video.
Blow it out your backfocus idiots.
It's not real so just enjoy the video.

but i fly small aircrafts but i know that the airliner should not have gone like that. Anyway if it is true then i would of thought it was a student airliner pilot.

i made worst at a simulator on the arcad

my word !!

Here's the deal. At the time of this incident, I was in the area flying Boeing 767-300, Confidence is right, it was in Beijing, and we recieved a FMC message announcing the active runway was closed, after an inspection for iron left on the runway. The Airbus A319 was carrying a football team, and we were advised of a 342 at 39 MAG crosswind and poor visibility ranging around 5 miles, and the airport was then restricted to IFR only.

Captain Kangaroo

I can't believe so many people here this this is real footage.You dont have to be a physicist realise that its impossible for a passenger jet of that size to start bouncing up and down like that without being ripped to shreds. If it was possible for a jet to stay intact under those cirumstances (which it isnt) the people inside would have been mashed to a pulp. Its more than obvious that this is computer animated. Even a model plane coudln't do that.

I have the full video, just watched it again and it is a beer commercial for a Dutch beer. The pilot makes an announcement from the Dutch crew to the football team that is on the plane and due to play Holland apologising for the rough landing. Hope this helps

Its not a model, it was a nose gear test on out of service equiptment.

that was some funny shit it looked like a mexicans car in L.A.. :P

I'm not a pilot, but I'm a graphic artist.

You don't need much time to realize, that it's just a CG 3D model :/

CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?

I have been flying big jets for 20 years now. (707s, 747s, DC-9s), and I don't think this is real. Real jets would have lifted off again when the nose gear pops that high off the ground, because approach speeds are higher than take-off speeds. In addition, the aircraft in the video is an A-320, which is computer controlled. It is literally incapable of doing what is shown.

this pilot is doing some hydraulic action on his plane. u sure he aint high or something.

It must be model

but there's no way a plane that huge is going to bounce on that tiny front wheel. It would definetly collapse. Ever see videos of planes coming in to hard and fast and that landing gear just disintegrate? Scooting along on the belly of the plane, sparks and everything? Yeah, no commercial plane has landing gear that could make a GIANT ASS plane bounce like that. It's a model, or someone spent a long time editing this.

you walk away from is a good landing

I do not believe that is real. That bounces are strong enough to break the front landing gear im thousand pieces.
that was a normal landing and them was "touched" by a good video editing software. Who did that had not forgot to add audio effects to the video.

it is not a model. i was the pilot of that plane!!!! And i am actually dead, so if you can read this then that means that you are some sort of psycic!!!

Yup, i'll take the one about the beer ad, you can hear some sort of talking towards the end, can someone try and dig up a link for it so we can see the whole thing?

Who cares if its real or not y do you even bother...so shut up and enjoy the bludy video mates!!!

This is a model, because a real airplane is way to heavy and would cause structual damadge, also whoever said it sounds too good to be a model, no? Models sound like the real thing, just to a smaller scale. This is fake.

You cant realy think thats an REAL airplane c'mon.
Its as fake as it gets

Probably a model airplane as some other dude said

Fake, a plane cant handle that, the nose gear or at last, the structure would break up.

like... shiiiiiiiitt!!!

star wtf if u ppl actualli tink dat is real u need help. im a ras 12 year old i no dats fake.........if u play it fast ull c the plane lengthen and shorten

my nuts woulda been crushed

Hey guys, you've been had by some smart video work.
The clever video guys sped the clip up to 200 or 300%, which is why it looks like a model. (I tried downloading it to render it slower, but the clip is protected). If you use the scrub bar and left/right arrow key to step through the clip, you'll see that the front gear does compress, then lengthen as the nose goes up again. During the several bounces it does this, and at slower speed, show the correct ballistics. Note also that when the nosewheel finally stays on the ground the fuselage still bounces progressively less a few times as it's rolling out.
I couldn't find any indication of headwind speed, but it's pretty clear (to me) that the pilot had lots of it, therefore his ground speed was slower than usual. This would account for the huge bounce over such a short distance. Again, by speeding up the video, it looks deliciously unrealistic. With lots of lift coming from the headwind, the plane is floating much more than it appears, and impact on the nose gear is not as great as it appears. Most of the impact is vertical, and there's not much horizontal force on the gear, so it's not in much danger of getting ripped off.
As for audio, they cleverly added that normal-sounding voice at the end just to put you off. In fact, the landing sounds are in sync and could easily be 2 or 3 times speed without sounding too strange. To my ear, they sound higher pitched than reality.

Great fun!

The worst landing ever is the one where no-one survives.

so wat if its fake just enjoy it have some fun LOL
and it sounds like you love yourself m8 so shut up cause you are really big on your pilot thing LOL LMAO

Sorry to disappoint you guys, it is a beer commercial.
The joke being:
It is a plane bringing the German soccer crew to the Netherlands for the championships of 2000. The captain of the Dutch carrier (not an existing airline for obvious reasons) addresses the passengers after the landing, wishing the German team a warm welcome and "prosperous" championship. ;-)

and i have seen a plane do a similar landing to that but i dont know im not a plane expert. I dont know who to belive. keep on arguing thou its funny.

Is a fake but its a good video

They said it was easy to fly a plane.

come on guys...this is obviously a model plane....the front landing gear would have absorbed the initial touchdown and not bounced, perfect example, watch an aircraft carrier and how the landing gear on a f14 or f18 absorbs the landing...if this were a real plane it would have crashed and more than likely snapped the front gear....listen to sound again....its not aligned with video

He's right, its from a beer ad, the airline is supposed to be sabotaging a rival country's football team or something like that

Possibly they were brought out by Easyjet?

how many times do I have to watch this clip??

firedfired

u are fired

ya know, that looks verry simular to many of my microsoft flight simular landings, thye have some pretty good graphics on that game these day

too much beer

I have never seen that kinda of landing w/out ending in an accident.Still funny

Yer Twas Sum Fat Bird At The Back, Kept Jumping Up And Down,Screaming About Her Small Dinner!

how the hell did he get his license with this landing....

Pilot, if it's a model plane only, that was pretty good sound effects and visual effects.
Now, for the truth, this indeed can happen and can be real, if there was enough air pressure/wind it could even keep the aircraft afloat if it lost power. It seems the air pressure was resisting the landing but when the plane finally touched down it was gone.

this got switches.... and they work...

Needs his license first.

get a grip people, of course it's fake. we don't need an aeronautical engineer or a pilot to tell us that.

it's not submitted here to see if it's genuine and whether the producer of the video should be arrested for making fakes ... it's here for amusement and it certainly fits that requirement.

This guy is either a stoner or has had one too many at the pub

its a model plane i have 1

look at the arilons! they dont move! so why wud the plane mive when they dont? plus it would of sparked or snapped with that heavy landing

this is to fake. looks like it came straight out of an old ass 1970's movie

Where is my sit belt man I think Pilot was a drunk

fake boring

Lol nice landing i love it.. i think there was some oil missing in the struts + a drunk captain, besides that i don't think an airbus can let you do those type of manoeuvers

He sagale khote khote diste

I can´t beleive you people think this is real, it´s obviously a model plane as theres NO WAY that the front wheels would have enough power to lift the plane up that fast.

all the "movements" of the plane are way too fast for it to be a full size, real airliner

They survived and the plane is in one peice. That counts for something still right?

Fikei tão impressionado k até comentei 3 vezes... Fonix. Nunca mais ando de avião, pelo menos nesse... ih, ih, ih.

Vai pa lá vai... e ñ leves a manta!!!

Fonix, vai pa lá e ñ leves a manta ñ...

Foda-se!!! Ñ ando mais de avião ñ senhor. lol

WERE PEOPLE ON BOARD???

Sorry guys, this is fake. i'm an aeronautical engineer adn there is no way that that front landing gear shaft can take a beating like that. It would have gone straight through the floor. And Rhumba, pilots are not egotistical morons, their highly trained personel. your probably just jealous of their job because it's better than yours

ever heard of weather? ever heard of severe wind speed? thats what caused such a bad landing! its never the pilots fault, millions of dollars are spent on every pilot in training to ensure that a pilot will never do any mistakes.

don`T try this at home

well,if you see the windy conditions,that's a GREAT pilot

Bet there were a few puddles on the floor.

Any landing from which you can walk away from is a good landing!

It could have been worse!

Would not want to have been on that flight.. but at least he landed it right side up!

its a bit strange no?

Wow the more comments I read on Metacafe the less confidence I have in the younger generations. I am completely in disgust with anyone who could even contemplate claiming that this is a model aircraft. If you really believe this please have your self fixed !! because you might actually help raise the intelligence level of the American gene pool

I am in my mid 40’s and have been building and flying model aircraft since I was 7 years old.
I have built and flown everything from single engine high wings to multi engine multi rotor turbine powered helicopters. At one time I was even a sponsored pilot for a well known model helicopter manufacturer.

You have got to be half blind to believe that the aircraft in the video is a model.
I could easily fill 5 pages of text with observations indicating conclusively that the aircraft in the video is not a model. But for now I will keep it simple.

One word >>>>MASS<<<< its very obvious that the aircraft in this video has much more mass then a small balsa aircraft, If there was enough energy to bend the nose gear, A balsa wood or fiberglass aircraft would have also bounced on the main gear. In 37 or so years of flying models, I have never seen a model aircraft of any size produce smoke from the main gear on touch down. While this could have been added. The physical dynamics of a 20 or 30 pound Model could never simulate an aircraft of the size and weight of the commercial craft in the Video .

I guess the problem we have here is that most of the people who believe it is a model grew up in the video game generation, and therefore have a difficult time differentiating reality from fantasy. While people in my generation spent thousands of hours building and flying models and watching the real ones at the airport while dreaming of one day flying them !

....

What is the same ???

does anyone know what airline ir is?

I'd like to know, so that I never fly on it!!

I don't understand why ,whoever was making the landing ,slammed that nose gear down so hard, even in very windy conditions..And the truth is, if it's really that bad,don't go beyond the prescribed limits published in the airplane manual. Maybe the captain had declared an emergency, then anything goes..until you report to the Chief Pilot and the FAA.
