Title: Ridiculous heli video

These 12s, 5000w helis are getting crazier by the minute.

I'm not even sure what that was.... I was scared. And I was watching it on youtube.

ok so two comments.
1. This kid should not be allowed to fly helicopters the same way as Lance Armstrong is not allowed to ride bikes .... There is no room for doping in this sports..or hobby.
2. I lost him 10 times only watching the video - did they speed up the the video when uploading to youtube? The kid didn't even sweat and I was thinking he will loose about 10lb only from concentrating. Maybe he is an alien with a faster biological clock something like a mosquito.

I think the kid needs a new hobby.. he needs to really lose more than 10lbs...

And clearly he's spending way too much time flying helis.  He's probably neglecting his studies.

Hmmmm.  I am suspicious of the video speed.  I feel it was sped up.  It would be very hard to capture that without missing where the heli was going.  That was one continuous run without any breaks in the video.  If it was true I give more credit to the guy filming it.

That was insane!  Wouldn't catch me filming that.  I would be too worried something would let go.  That video is much more believable as the camera man couldn't keep up as the video was spliced together to edit out all the pieces he missed.
