i was thinking more along the lines of " hold my beer " or " hey watch this "

Copilot: It's free real estate

Your comment doesn’t make sense

@@spike4850 This comment makes sence and it's funny af to stfu

Funny.

Dear Darien, nobody called it a landing. :)

Research0digo The video title says otherwise.

video title: This is how Norwegian air ambulance do their LANDINGS

no-one likes a smart arse lol

I do I appreciate the pendantry

What precisely about this is "classy"?

That's just an usual thing to do. No big deal here. It's like seeing someone walk, yeah sure for a newborn baby that's must be insane to see that, it's nothing.

@@22Epic "no big deal"? "like seeing someone walk"? Show us your ability to handle a helicopter this way

@@22Epic *STUPID MORON BUTT NECK*

@@karakantaTV thanks mate. Don't worry a helicopter is on its way, seems you need medical assistance.

How do you know if there is a Helicopter pilot at the party? He will tell you.

Helicopter flying is often likened to riding a unicycle while balancing a beach ball on your nose and juggling at the same time. That is, no matter what, you are always very busy.

@@wannabetowasabe As an FPV drones operator, I have had the slightest taste of flying and multi-tasking, of course a multicopter is different from a main rotor, tail rotor copter, but drone racing and freestyle is already very demanding to do well.

@@jays_jae I now follow you after having to Goggle "FPV." I've been under the impression that all drones give the operator a live camera view, otherwise how is terrain, vegetation and landing back where the operator is standing (sitting, hanging, lying down what have you) possible? A suggestion, don't assume people know the lingo (especially abbreviations) of any endeavor. It's like physicians saying "your EKG came back showing QRS complexes and no P waves. I'm concerned and would prefer to in-patient you, just to be safe." You then have to ask "doctor, can you give me that in English?" I am a forester by education and profession. If I were to say, "the DBH of the understory is on the large size, and my guess without a bore, is that it has reached the culmination of MAI, but unfortunately the size class is precommercial so ladder mitigation is going to be force account" you would tell me to explain that in English also.

@@jays_jae Also, I would think drone operating/flying would be difficult. Pilots often are reacting to the feel of the seat of their pants to detect what an aircraft is doing. That is absent with remote controlled aircraft. I've watched some model aircraft flying standing next to the operator, doing all sorts of maneuvers that I've seen full sized aircraft do, like rolls, loop de loops and hammerheads with just two levers and speed control on a handheld panel. This for a model airplane that they have spent thousands of dollars on and a year or more building. Side note, I was a passenger on a biplane once, when the pilot surprised my friend and I with a hammerhead maneuver. The horizon does some amazing things during this stunt!

So funny LOL

o.O

_You kids get out of here! Take your helicopter elsewhere and mar up other people's property, not mine. Shoo!_

Your job is awesome

what's it called if you fall off? a bigger accident

please don't get into the aviation business haha

Yea, same here. Trees and walls appear to be particularly attractive to radio-controlled stuff. :-D

Been there. Done that... more than once.

Tunnel vision and focusing on obstacles - this is typical problem which causes fatalities in motorcycle accidents. Try to force yourself to look the other way and you will improve greatly. I've had same problem when trying to fly between trees.

A LOT easier to fly a helicopter than a drone.

well technically, it's 3mm wide

I think its about 5-10 cm wide

Apologies, I'm in a metric country and i engineer stuff with metric. It's the lazy me that brought out inches.

Actually Tammy is correct.....the top of the guard rail is not a flat surface but sloped, so it is only a few millimeters! :)

yes it is infact about 3 " wide but it is not flat on top so they balancing on a edge :-)

Oh shit "no time for caution"

7 years.... dead meme RIP

Dam that movie was the fucking best scifi shit ever

@@smatchimo645 still fucking funny and a great movie

Those are bots

It can be dangerous when your balls hang so low, and you fly so low

if you are blind and deaf you wont know but if you can see there are propellers on top of the helicopter, AND if you can hear you will hear the engine of the heli running

Wow what an original comment! I am so impressed! (sarcasm)

@@alexsheppard8331 i really hate these comments

@@andreaskavak2364 Literally every comment on a aviation video: PiLoTs hUgE bAlLs

The difference between click bait and a good video channel is knowing you subject. Instead of the original "incredible landing", it should have said "stunning toe-in on guard rail".

Serious question, is this something trained helicopter pilots are all taught? Or is it like a very high skill thing?

@@57thorns This isn't clickbait, it's a quality video that is only - slightly - mistitled. Big difference.

@@JulzOGLoc very high skill. A toe-in is highly risky manuver that should only be attempted if no other option is available. Search and rescue pilots, some navy pilots, & most special forces pilots tend to be the only ones who are taught/practice this.

@@cgi2002 and there is a good reason for it. Do a tiny single mistake, and you're chopping people and cars around you like onions... Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if the pilot had to explain this action to his bosses while waiting for his flight reevaluation...

Why would this be a highly skilled move? A helicopter in a hover is very unbalanced by nature, the pilot is always manipulating the controls to remain balanced. It is very similar to balancing yourself on top of a ball. The ball in this case is the column of air underneath of the helicopter caused by the rotors. This maneuver in this video is no different, except that he doesn't need to balance the helicopter on the lateral axis because the skids on the guard rail are providing that stability. He does however still needs to balance the helicopter in both the longitudinal and yaw axis. So this will actually make it slightly easier for the pilot than actually hovering, 1 less axis to worry about. It is just a normal hover with a bit of 'bling' thrown in.

@@nvstewartBalancing on a ball like a square ball made of cement. Of course that is easy.

@@palco22 Never said it was easy... He is an emergency helicopter pilot, he is required to hover very precisely and so will have a lot of hover training, for HIM, this is no more difficult than a traditional hover.

@@nvstewart for this pilot, its likely something they have been trained to do and have practiced doing. For most pilots its a flat out, no go. While its seems easier to hover in this situation in theory, in practice its not, the pilot has to now we aware of not getting their skids caught on anything, the clearance of their blades. They must make sure to not over correct even slightly (can't risk the skids moving forwards/backwards at all, may get caught). Basically you need to preform a perfect hover but at very low altitude, which can have unusual wind buffetting effects because of the land under you. Basically its stupidly hard to do, even if your a pro trained to do it, but at the same time, its a practiced manuver so you know what to expect. It's alot like learning to land a helicopter on a ship thats still moving at speed, hard to do, but with practice and training, repeatedly doable.

@@cgi2002 best description I've read in many comments. Thx.

thats because its not actually balancing on the fence. its more like hovering with skids resting lightly on the fence

@@shaneebahera8566 The pilot has the collective on the rotors so that the helicopter appears to be balanced on the railings while its hovering and the aircraft is level so when the medics leave the aircraft is doesn't dip forwards or backward due to the weight change. I hope I've explained it better...

That's true perfection (beside the fact that I've got no clue why I got this video recommended) In other words: llegal racers: I can controle my car in any possible situation This helicopter pilot: You little shits ain't even worth holding my beer.

@@Jamm2Games i would even go as far to say he got natural talent

It probably is, given the number of narrow mountain roads with guard rails in Norway. This is probably SOP for them.

It's called a "toe in"...a common technique all rescue chopper pilots learn during their training.Ambulance helicopter pilots near ski resorts do this on daily base.It stabilizes the front of the chopper against snow covered slopes to steep to land, making it easier to load wounded people.So yes...for rescue pilots it's a very normal move which they perform on daily base.It might look very impressive and crazy for people seeing it the first time, not knowing it's a thing those pilots perform very often.For them pilots it's just business as usual...

@@Catch_me_if_you_can_666 It's still impressive though.

Medic: Wait, you're flying intoxicated

@@wolfpriest6954 non alchohol my man👌

@@wolfpriest6954 you don't fly like this while sober

Medic: As usual? Pilot: Same old. This is just everyday procedure for any emergency helicopter pilot in the world. Come as close as possible, drop the medic on site, move back and hover nearby. They do it that way because they need to keep the engine running so they can pick up the victims and transport them to an hospital as fast as possible. But they can't stay too close because of the air blast sending dust and debris all around the place.

@@christianbarnay2499 Yeah I know, I'm being funny. And I'm an aircraft engineer, I'm well aware of the capability of these aircraft. Thank you Captain Obvious for pointing out the obvious.

It prevents the chopper from getting blown around...it's skill and experience...not balls.

Exactly...not balls.

tai

Whats with the two way conversation comment ? Its pathetic, and so are those that actually like it. What a sad world these days.

Spinning rotor: * start humming interstellar theme*

He put weight on the guard rail to prevent get blown around.

I am quite sure he had a lot of other things to worry about... the only people that get out of a rescue helicopter in maneuvers like this are doctors and such maneuvers are only risked if the patient's condition is very serious.
