Ultimate Helicopter Ride
This is a video created by combining footage from different cameras (mine and my nephews) of a helicopter ride we took at Summerfest 2007 in Ottawa, IL in late July. The guy flying this higher end, commercial helicopter is a former Apache gunship pilot... does it show?

Re: Ultimate Helicopter Ride
Freaking sweet! I cant believe that they let you keep the doors open with turns like that! Are you just sitting on the floor?

Re: Ultimate Helicopter Ride
Yeah, the doors were both taken off and it was all open. However, if you notice at the beginning of the video when we are all getting in that there are seat belts all over the place. Each person has a seat belt and is strapped in fairly tight. You're not going anywhere.
Darius, this version of the video is different than the previous one you saw. This one has footage we both shot mixed together. It really added to it! I am working on getting the video of the skydive out of the helicopter we did the next day from the guy who shot it so I can add that footage onto the end of this version of the video, as well.

Re: Ultimate Helicopter Ride
What no loops or barrel rolls? That's weak!
