It's a surprisingly dangerous mission-to safely navigate the skies of one of North America's most iconic tourist destinations. The helicopter pilots of Niagara Falls battle extreme wind and unpredictable weather conditions to give tourists that one spectacular view from 3,000 feet. Stanley Snopkowski, Chief Helicopter Pilot for Rainbow Air, spent 20 years in the military, but during that time he never encountered conditions like those over Niagara Falls. Some days, Snopkowski says, the weather "wins" and pilots simply cannot takeoff. But when you're lucky enough to experience a flight on a clear day, the view will stay with you for the rest of your life.

Are you seriously that thick? What a dope, because there isn't both an American and Canadian side... Idiocy.

Possible reasons why people dislike the videos on this GREAT channel 1. They don't like the content (That would be impossible) 2. Boring (They don't find it entertaining or something and leave a dislike) 3.There a bunch of assholes (mind my language) people that probably don't have any thing to do and just dislike the video with out analyzing the content 4. Just dumb people who are disliking for no reason. 5. People getting triggered or the feeling of uncomfort and stress by what they saw (I don't know the reason) 6. If i'm missing something just feel free to comment if you care I feel sad about the video that has a ratio of 2:1 of likes and dislike i don't know what happen but let's just assume that there are many people who have different people who have different point of views and as a good person let's just accept that and move on if a person is commenting bad things (in your point of view) just say "you express you're opinion so let's move on"

So Great Big Story is made CNN or something? CNN is fake news is because of the politics stuff but in my opinion I don't they would lie from the story of other people (If i'm wrong I stand corrected) Yeah i agree many people don't trust mainstream media like CNN because of the election.

John Carlo Abella There's the Canadian falls and the American falls. Without prior knowledge you might assume they're both American because the video said it was in America. I didn't dislike it though.

Gangyi Xu I live near Niagara Falls and Canada is cool, but it takes forever to get from the US side to Canada or vise versa because of border The US side can be pretty cool, because u can go in the falls, and there's the cave of the winds, but everyone has a preference
