Is this pure luck..

I have received this small video via email.I have no idea how old this smal clip is at this time.Even though i am sure i have seen this (Or similar) at some point.

But the ending of the video looks kind of odd in my opinion..What do you think.. ?

As i am using photobuckets free hosting... i hope the bandwidth holds out.

Re: Is this pure luck..

The "blurring" at the end somewhat gives it away, especially seeing as the guy miraculously managed to keep the plane in focus up until the point where it "landed"

Fake, has to be.

Veeeery fake to me at the end. The motion's way too smooth at that speed so it's most likely animated in a hurry :P
3DSMax is my guess

Re: Is this pure luck..

Real plane or radio control model, landing a plane with only one wing is not something you practice. I wonder how the guy figured out he still had some amount of control with the plane upside down? ....... freaky stuff.

If it's a model, it wouldn't have dropped so fast when power was cut, that would take the weight of a real plane.

Re: Is this pure luck..

OK...what you saw, actually happened...except, it was a large, probably 1/4 scale RC plane. There is a video out on Youtube of the real event.

I'll look around and see if I can find it.

OK the one I found was from a different angle, so...either there was a 2nd one, ot they reversed the video and did a bit of editing to get a "real" paint scheme. Or more likely, they used this as 'inspiration', and did it all with a bit of CGI.

Regardless of whether this one above is real or not, here's one that was on The History Channel that's definitely for real!
