Bloodhound SSC, World Land Speed Record and other interesting things!

ThrustSSC run 61 (supersonic) - tail view with subtitles and extra information
My gratitude goes to Andy Green for helping with the 4 or 5 bits of this video which I could not understand. Thanks Andy!
Who: Andy Green
What: Going supersonic on land
When: 13th October 1997 at 11:23 AM
Where: Black Rock Desert, Nevada, USA
Why: Because they dared to do what everyone said could not be done!
Thrust SSC's 61st run was the first properly supersonic run which Thrust SCC did, going beyond the target speed of 715mph indicated (750mph true) to 725mph indicated (760mph true).
This was a warm-up for the main event. Later that same day the Thrust team attempted to create the first supersonic World Land Speed Record. To set a World Land Speed Record you need to complete 2 runs in opposite directions within 60 minutes. On the first run a double parachute failure created a 2 mile overrun requiring a long tow back to the start line, Andy was about 40 seconds too late coming back across the measured mile.
2 days later they tried again and were successful, setting the first ever supersonic World Land Speed record:
763.035 mph
1227.723 km/h
Mach 1.020
For the whole story search for "Supersonic Dreams", a BBC documentary following the last stages of Project Thrust.

even a lenses of camera cant resist a pickup acceleration. damn
Only one way run! WTF This video is disappointing trash.
what kindof tires were used? I can't imagine....
Sonic can't outrun this 💀
Sonic could not outrun this 💀
Only half the pods are for jet engines… the other half was for ANDY GREENS BALLS!!!
Millions into a car and filmed with a potatoe
The cam is FREAKING out
Broke the sound barrier
That moment when he went off the track and had to yaw it back in line, damn, that must have nerve wrecking.
There are far cheaper ways to off yourself.
Over 1000km/h that's insane. How did the wheels not just explode🤯
RIP BUGATTI 😂
It's sad that not many people can actually comprehend how crazy it is to do 700 mph on land. All i see is a lot of comments saying this plane is faster that planes is faster, It would be so much easier to get a plane to do 700 miles an hour in comparison to a wheeled vehicle. This was 1997 and the record still stands for a reason.....
hyperloop one speed
MAN!!! You REALLY need to be up in an airplane to go that fast. (safely)
I really want to know how much distance he traveled during this, anyone know?
That was rolling on.
He's got some balls that guy. Big posh balls . Top man
As the machinist who made a few fuel cell components for SSC in Bend Oregon my heart will sink if the record ever get's broken , long live Thrust!
Eventually the record will be broken
@@catolegQuestion is whether or not it’ll happen in laszlosworld’s lifetime We could probably beat it fairly easily, the issue is getting enough money to make that happen. I for one wish we lived in a world where instead of spending trillions on war machines, people spent stupid amounts of money on finding out just how much we can accomplish.
I want to see this in 4K
With all the shit going on in the world at the moment I've come here to watch humans doing something amazing and brilliant.
Chances are if a team would go on a press tour with a car like that today, some "eco-activists" (terrorists) would throw buckets of orange paint into the engines and then glue themselves to the canopy.
Calm, precise, almost sounds like no fuss at all. This is the way to gather good data, incremental and exacting.
it feels illegal to put rocket boosters on a chassis and call it a "car"
It’s literally a plane without wings
How he was felt with G force ?
thats a funny looking car...
This is the second car to achieve supersonic speed. Although unofficial, the Budweiser rocket car did achieve a supersonic speed. If just barely in 1979. And just because it wasn’t made official doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Out of bias all rocket car records were removed from the record books after the Budweiser rocket car. Including the record set by the blue flame car in 1970.
😂
2:20 LMAO Andy is still going 300mph and acting like he's slowed down to 25mph
its crazy to think this man went supersonic TWICE in 2 different cars breaking his own record
Man's LITERALLY got an F-Zero car going on here.
So fast
for a fact this car is faster than the speed of sound this means that it at least has to be 10 - 15x faster than the fastest car in the world
the speed of sound is 1235 kmph
@@microwave-hb9mk I know
Trieste
Now this is pod racing
Who can't do that?
Too bad the video quality is so bad. That would have been an awesome video!
If i had a dollar for every pixel in this video i'd have 12 cents.
You’re interesting 😂 Nerd!
Stan Barrett and the Budweiser Rocket Car was the first to break the sound barrier at 739.66 mph on a day the SB was 735.00 mph ....!
Stop coping ya Yankie Doodle Dumbass. The Budweiser Rocket never broke the sound barrier. The first (and still only) car driven by a human being to break that barrier (and did so multiple times was Thrust SSC in 1997.
VTEC sticker adds 10hp 😃
And Marty McFlurry was able to time travel at 88
Love how they can afford to make a mach 1 car but can't afford a real camera.
This is the fastest car but nobody knows
I guess once you go over 500MPH any slight mistake better dozen boxes of extra heavy duty heft garbage bags for crew member -- if you wipe out; oh make and signed next of kin papers?
real life f zero car
FUCK that was faaaaaast.........✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
That is one focussed and disciplined individual.
Le record est toujours là! Nous sommes dans le troisième millénaire, le record finira par tomber, mais quand?
Video quality could use some improvement
Its from 1983 dude.
