The Most Amazing thing I have ever seen!

Well, technically It should be in the Margaritaville forum since It has nothing to do with reefing, but there is more traffic here.
I am in the process of getting my pilots license, and fly RC planes, but this absolutely blew me away. If you need some good brain dead entertainment, check it out.

I am just curious as to how many copters he has blown into tiny little pieces on impact with the ground. I typically fly my plane about "3 mistakes high" and I still have had horrible crashes. He spends most of the time a couple feet off the ground. I am just in awe.

4 things ran through my head watching that, in this order

1. man it has been a long time since i saw an episode of airwolf, i gotta find a couple episodes somewhere

2. that looks hard, i bet if i tried to fly one of those it would go all out of control like that

3. ok i think he is doing this on purpose, oh my, wow, holy cow, snarf

4. half a 6 pack of beer while i watched it a couple more times
