Absolutely! You've hit the nail on the head there - quick thinking kinda guy. Saved so many lives with that quick mind. Always think on the flight that crashed into a residential area in Amsterdam years ago. That could have been the situation here too. What a man ❤️🙏

@Alan Raphael Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This "miracle" landing was the result of a flight crew that had a total understanding of the plane, plus years of experience. Being able to think under insane pressure helps too.
Also the engineering of the aircraft. The Airbus they were flying was programmed to keep the aircraft within the flight envelope where it was just on the verge of stalling, making it easier to maximize their glide and make the landing as gentle as possible (which isn't exactly gentle by any definition but no ditching ever has been). Ultimately the perfect execution of that glide kept the fuselage intact and let the engines be ripped-off more-or-less cleanly as designed.
A passenger said there was no people panicking. Shock? yes but no panicking. They managed to all make it out to the wins and a waiting lifeboat. One of the flight attendants was badly Injured when they hit the water. A beam from the cargo shot into her leg and she still managed to keep everyone calm and get everyone braced for impact and evacuated,safely. The pilots knew what they were doing. They couldn't turn around and were losing lift fast. So they couldn't coast to a surrounding airport. They wouldn't make it because once the engines go,so does the electricity. They turned on the ECU and managed to radio back to tower and landed safely in the water. No water traffic and the Hudson is often patrolled. So they were evacuated safely and taken to the ferry terminals. The red cross gave them coats and sweaters out of closets because it was the coldest day of that year. They're heroes.
Sully's water landing is an incredible example of survival thinking. The speed with which Sully and Skiles adapted their mindsets in response to the changed circumstance (normal take-off to emergency engines failure ) is astonishing. In survival conditions, this is known as "re-writing the [mental] map." The faster you do it, the faster you start making life saving decisions. Yes, airline pilots are highly trained to do so. Still, this is a note-worthy response.
@Bad Cattitude I mean, the ATC wasnt going to "send him to a nearby airport", they gave him options. That's their job, and you know absolutely nothing about the flying industry. It's obvious.
@@Zaz5y ? Bad cattitude just wrote specifically "Its more impressive when you realize the ATC was going to send him to a nearby airport". Which is false, the ATC gave Sully every option he could. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@Zaz5y No I didn't. He said it as if ATC was commanding him to get to an airport but only Sully realized the danger. Simply not true, Sully had already declared mayday which means that ATC will prio him and do whatever the captain asks and give viable options. Nothing less.
Sully is the guy you could run into at the supermarket and he would let you go in front of him in line. An awesome pilot but still humble. He keeps trying to give credit to everyone else.
Mr. Sullenberger, First Officer Jeff Skiles, and rescuers from NY and NJ (air, water, and land). Thanks for what you did that day on January 15, 2009 and for saving the lives of 155 people. You're heroes.
Arctic explorer ... somebody, damn, can't remember his name ... said "When all hope is lost, give me Shackelton." If you don't know who Shackleton was, google him. ASTONISHING.
Not only did Captain Sully land the plane safely, he made sure everyone was off before evacuating. He walked back and forth twice. Thank you Captain Sully for your heroism!
Saw the movie on IMAX today and it was really powerful. Great work and shines a great light on Sully and what he did. Please buy him a drink if you ever see him for me!
A hero. A mentor. Thanks Sully, ya did good. Maybe kids will see this movie and have hope for their future. Humanity CAN be a good thing. Without it - we are lost.
Man was owed more than a few television appearances. He mastered aircraft I really wish they could make a sculpture in dc or Mount Rushmore. Truly a founding father...
Who raised this guy? We need these kinds of parents. We teachers are fighting a battle we will not win. My Sister teaches HS in CA & the kids said "It's OK to cheat. You do yourself an injustice if you don't. Everyone cheats, Ms. She said. I haven't! There's a lot to be said about integrity boys & girls.
I love that he's totally embracing the fame. He still has the "humble hero" thing going on, but also isn't guilt-ridden about cashing in on it. Good speaking voice, too. Good for talks shows and junkets.
Reading the CVR transcript showed just how amazing Capt. Sullenberger and 1st Officer Skiles were at thinking outside the box. From the time the birds were spotted to the water landing, only 3 minutes, 23 seconds had elapsed. The Quick Response Handbook (QRH) they have next to their seats only assumed losing both engines would happen at cruise altitude (most likely to fuel starvation) and so the QRH checklist for "both engines out" was long and detailed. By the time 1st Officer Skiles would have completed the re-light checklist, the plane would have already impacted terrain or water. So they improvised with positive results.
I second that ....talk about cool under pressure nothing more brings out the best in you when your life and that of another 154 people's lives are in your hands what skills this man has
OK, it's just possible that good fortune smiled on the crew and the plane landed uncharacteristically well on the water that morning BUT Capt. Sullenberger is still an incredible man and he and his co-pilot achieved the IMPOSSIBLE. That's the very definition of a superhero!
Legend has it, the original pilot flying that plane, was Chuck Norris. When the plane struck the birds, and it lost thrust in both engines, Chuck panicked. His head dripping sweat, his breathing intensified, he had no idea what to do. When all of a sudden, a hand touched his shoulder, and he heard someone say "Step aside son, I'll take it from here" Chuck looked up, and there stood Chesley Sullenberger. Chuck was so embarrassed, that it's been kept secret the entire time.
i just watched this movie a couple of days ago on Netflix....Really enjoyed it. It gave me the chills all over again. Cannot believe the skill and knowledge it took to land that plane safely...Congrats to the flight crew for their unbelievable calm, cool and professionalism.
Victor "Godamn" Sullivan! It's funny, I had the exact same thought and got excited thinking we would get a movie based on Sully fron UC. But, now we know who they can cast if they make a live action flick.
Al-Haim La Ahad You sir, have just posted one of the most genius things ever posted! No role is beyond the grasp of Briscoe County, Jr (a.k.a. Bruce Campbell)! LOL!!
In WWII, there was an effort to develop water landing protocols. They gave up, as it was simply impossible to predict what would happen. That, and the planes tendency to break up on hitting the water..
100 seconds to failed engines and 208 seconds to land on water. Total time 5 minutes 8 seconds. This video 06:40 is lengthier than that. Just blows my mind.
the guy never misses an opportunity to throw credit to his crew and everyone involved with the rescue. such a class act
You can say that again! He is such a class act! So inspired by him ❤
And another thing I have noticed already is that he always says the first officer's name before his when he tells what happened.
Sully seems like just the nicest guy.
@Steven I see what you did there.
what did he do?
The AMV TOP 50 The song. Some hippie band wrote song inspired by him. It was featured in Drive. One of the best movies in the past 10 years.
BHRxRACER Drive sucked, lol. I mean holy shit, it was bad.
The AMV TOP 50 Just to be clear you're talking about the gosling movie, right? IF so, you're the first person I've seen/heard/read say that.
"or be on this show"
Dude is as quick at making aviation calls as he is at quick witted jokes.
Absolutely! You've hit the nail on the head there - quick thinking kinda guy. Saved so many lives with that quick mind. Always think on the flight that crashed into a residential area in Amsterdam years ago. That could have been the situation here too. What a man ❤️🙏
I can´t believe how much I love this guy!!! such a hero and inspiration!!

The consummate professional: self-effacing, not afraid to laugh at himself, calm and with a certain aura about him.

This "miracle" landing was the result of a flight crew that had a total understanding of the plane, plus years of experience. Being able to think under insane pressure helps too.
It helped that there was little water traffic, and rescue services did their jobs perfectly.
Also the engineering of the aircraft. The Airbus they were flying was programmed to keep the aircraft within the flight envelope where it was just on the verge of stalling, making it easier to maximize their glide and make the landing as gentle as possible (which isn't exactly gentle by any definition but no ditching ever has been). Ultimately the perfect execution of that glide kept the fuselage intact and let the engines be ripped-off more-or-less cleanly as designed.
Having no other options made the choice very clear. Like a chess position where a brilliant move is found because all other moves lose.
Unlike what happened With the rio paris A447.....
A passenger said there was no people panicking. Shock? yes but no panicking. They managed to all make it out to the wins and a waiting lifeboat.
One of the flight attendants was badly Injured when they hit the water. A beam from the cargo shot into her leg and she still managed to keep everyone calm and get everyone braced for impact and evacuated,safely.
The pilots knew what they were doing. They couldn't turn around and were losing lift fast. So they couldn't coast to a surrounding airport. They wouldn't make it because once the engines go,so does the electricity. They turned on the ECU and managed to radio back to tower and landed safely in the water.
No water traffic and the Hudson is often patrolled. So they were evacuated safely and taken to the ferry terminals.
The red cross gave them coats and sweaters out of closets because it was the coldest day of that year.
They're heroes.
Consummate professional and a gentleman of class, dignity and humility. He deserves that standing ovation absolutely.
Captain Sully deserves every great thing that's happening to him. What a hero!
He deserves to coast from here on out although I doubt he will do that.
My dad is a lifelong pilot F.I. and safety analyst for Lockheed and he admires the shit out of this guy, which is quite the endorsement.
I love that Tom Hanks and the rest of the cast of the movie gave him the option to go on the shows and get seen instead of doing it themselves
He still was giving credit to everyone else. That is an awesome human being.
Sully's water landing is an incredible example of survival thinking. The speed with which Sully and Skiles adapted their mindsets in response to the changed circumstance (normal take-off to emergency engines failure ) is astonishing.

Niklas Stenhall He definitely meant that but you took his wording too seriously :P
@@Zaz5y No I didn't. He said it as if ATC was commanding him to get to an airport but only Sully realized the danger. Simply not true, Sully had already declared mayday which means that ATC will prio him and do whatever the captain asks and give viable options. Nothing less.
Why does he look like he was once a US president?
Because we are starved for quality in people.
+richard dietl Jesus, that got serious
Or Vice President
No, he looks like President Jimmy Carter without the mustache.
Plus throw in the red, white, and blue suit, he has got it down pat.
Blue suit, white shirt, red tie. That'll make anyone look like the president lol
This man has such grace while he speaks and his voice is so calm
I call every landing I can walk away from a good one.
OK
70% pilot error?
I say any landing where you can reuse the plane is an amazing landing!
Nick Costa ever see dawn patrol with errol flynn or blue max with gerge peppard?
Planes were disposable back then..;-)
What about a landing you have to swim away from? :P
They way he walks out kind of shocked is just so beautiful. He’s a true hero.
Sully's a rockstar .....and a true American Hero along with his first mate and flight crew
Sully is the guy you could run into at the supermarket and he would let you go in front of him in line. An awesome pilot but still humble. He keeps trying to give credit to everyone else.
I wish there were more stories about real heroes like him
There are but you gotta find em
What a humble and collected guy. All hope is not lost everyone.
His humility is so inspiring. This is what a real hero looks like. Everyone on that air crew is a hero.
Mr. Sullenberger, First Officer Jeff Skiles, and rescuers from NY and NJ (air, water, and land). Thanks for what you did that day on January 15, 2009 and for saving the lives of 155 people. You're heroes.
Wow. Tom Hanks lost a lot of weight.
sure has
Wow. You must be stupid as hell. Tom Hanks portrayed this guy in a movie!
+James Farrell if bad bait
wow.
no shit
What an incredible job Captain Sullenberger did landing that plane! I'm sure he will always be a hero to everyone who was on that plane.
if i'm ever in an emergency i want this guy with me.
Arctic explorer ... somebody, damn, can't remember his name ... said "When all hope is lost, give me Shackelton." If you don't know who Shackleton was, google him. ASTONISHING.
Standing ovation. Nothing less. HERO❤
Not only is he an amazing pilot, he’s a great storyteller.
He seems like such a sweetheart! Aww I bet he's a cool dad. He looks younger without the stache
Not only did Captain Sully land the plane safely, he made sure everyone was off before evacuating. He walked back and forth twice. Thank you Captain Sully for your heroism!
This man just exudes class and poise. What a true hero and one of Americas finest.
zero ego, real hero...
Saw the movie on IMAX today and it was really powerful. Great work and shines a great light on Sully and what he did. Please buy him a drink if you ever see him for me!
Capt Sullenberger should never pay for a drink or a meal in public again, particularly anywhere near NYC.
Modest to the core. A true hero. Love this man x
that song was fucking amazing
what is the name of the song?
Definition of a hero.
He is straight out of central casting. The perfect pilot. A real hero. Brilliant and funny speaker.
Deep but soft voice with a very light demeanor that reminds me of Bob Ross.
The PBS show host and "happy little trees" artist? An interesting observation...
Idris Elba is so in character, he's killin it
He talks about it like its an everyday thing it's nuts
He probably has to talk about it everyday so there's that.
You're very jealous ,what he did is the question he must to answer.
Don't be so hateful 😡😠
^Wtf? Nobody is being hateful here
Learn what hateful means, you fucking idiot.
(THIS comment was hateful, FYI)
Well, from what I know Captain Sully was a Navy aviator in the F14's so I guess his experience played role.
What a guy...what a hero
A hero. A mentor. Thanks Sully, ya did good. Maybe kids will see this movie and have hope for their future. Humanity CAN be a good thing. Without it - we are lost.
Man was owed more than a few television appearances. He mastered aircraft I really wish they could make a sculpture in dc or Mount Rushmore. Truly a founding father...
Sully - what a great guy!
2:17 I freaggin' LOVE Sully's humor! such an eloquent speaker💛💛💛
Sully you are a true hero , His bless you and your Family !! ❤❤❤❤
He is so humble... A true hero!
Stephen still killing it with the great guests :)
i am a frequent traveller on Skyteam and StarAlliance. Hope I always will have pilots like Sully on board!
Absolutely awesome...!!!
He's a nice guy, you can tell by the way he told the story: he mentions his first officer, the fly attendants and NY waterway
Who raised this guy? We need these kinds of parents. We teachers are fighting a battle we will not win.
My Sister teaches HS in CA & the kids said "It's OK to cheat. You do yourself an injustice if you don't. Everyone cheats, Ms.
She said. I haven't! There's a lot to be said about integrity boys & girls.
A true American hero that should be celebrated everyday for ever!!!
A true hero. And I am so happy this movie was made.
I love that he's totally embracing the fame. He still has the "humble hero" thing going on, but also isn't guilt-ridden about cashing in on it. Good speaking voice, too. Good for talks shows and junkets.
This is a man that’s god tier at his profession !
Americans certainly know how to honor people
Yeah. We have to deal with so much bullshit. So when we get a new hero we really value them because usually they're above all that.
and also know how to bring up things that happen 20 years ago prosicute u and bring your ass down tooo
Yes they do. Guess its because they been to most of the wars in the world ... So they honor their soldiers
Yes, I was thinking the same thing :)
I've noticed that too.
SULLY naturally being very chill & calm under pressure served him well during that water crash. 😊 plus .... Nerves of STEEL, Thank God
Brilliant to book the actual Captain.
For me he is the biggest hero in century.
Great Job. Great person. 👍

Kudos to this amazing guy. So modest. He's the hero America needs.
God damn he has a relaxing voice. Can you imagine him doing a voiceover of a nature documentary?
I really like that he's enjoying himself now, well earned mate.
Sully Sullenberger for President 2016
NO
I second that ....talk about cool under pressure nothing more brings out the best in you when your life and that of another 154 people's lives are in your hands what skills this man has
@@santiagomacahilas2346 he would be a mediocre president. Maybe.
@@brandonkey181 He might be too honest to be a politician.
@@mattiafioravanti8475 thats not why
Can't wait to see the movie. If you guys ever listened to the recording of that flight, which is available online, you'll surely be touched.
This man is amazing
He talks a little bit like Jeff Goldblum! What a great guy.
An amazing person who was at the height of his game as a pilot in 2009.
Just watched the movie. So much respect for this man. Love Sully.
The world needs more men like Sully and Jeff
Captain Sully you are world class - what a smart classy human being
OK, it's just possible that good fortune smiled on the crew and the plane landed uncharacteristically well on the water that morning BUT Capt. Sullenberger is still an incredible man and he and his co-pilot achieved the IMPOSSIBLE. That's the very definition of a superhero!
And he is such a fun and humble guy!
How can anybody not like this guy ?
everyone hates him yet he's the republican candidate for president, yeah ok
You deserve everything you got and more. The nation and history will never forget you.

He's the guy from Uncharted, right?
Drake brothers babysitter
We all know sully great at landing planes on water
Yup, my favorite character, Lol.
Oh god he actually does look kind of like him lol
Damn you right
I just realized it
Looooool
A true hero. I cried that day...
I love Sully!!!! Former Eastern Airlines Flight Attendant ❤𝕤𝕥𝕚𝕝𝕝 𝕝𝕚𝕧𝕚𝕟' 𝕊𝕔𝕦𝕝𝕝𝕪 𝕚𝕟 2023👏👨🏼✈️✈️
This man is a true hero! I salute him!
with that mustache he looks like a real life version of Sully from Uncharted

+Ozzy Zamora Captain seems like a nice guy but the only one who should play Sully is Bruce Campbell
yea too bad your fictional character didn't get a movie, who even is this sullenberger guy, its like he's a national hero or anythin
Al-Haim La Ahad You sir, have just posted one of the most genius things ever posted! No role is beyond the grasp of Briscoe County, Jr (a.k.a. Bruce Campbell)! LOL!!
thought the same haha
Real men, true heroes. God bless.
In WWII, there was an effort to develop water landing protocols.
They gave up, as it was simply impossible to predict what would happen.
That, and the planes tendency to break up on hitting the water..
Love love love this man all my respect to you sully , god bless you, god bless your legacy.
It occurs to me that Sully proved to be very eloquent. He is the perfect callsign for that company.
True heroes!!! All the flight crew!!!! Thank god! X
The entire flight was shorter than this segment.
There is a special place in heaven for this man!
What a cool guy!
Notice Colbert has left his seat to shake hands with this legend? And the initial standing ovation?
Captain Sully looks so Presidential!
I can see him in a great movie! He's handsome, he has the voice, he has great personality, just AWESOME!!😍😍☺☺
Everyone's Talking about Sully!
100 seconds to failed engines and 208 seconds to land on water. Total time 5 minutes 8 seconds. This video 06:40 is lengthier than that. Just blows my mind.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STACHE
he gave it to Tom Hanks to play him in the movie.
I love him without the stache
down the hudson river
You can tell the guy thinks quick, that's what saved everyone
If Heaven has a priority lane for boarding, he gets on the list.
Sully is a bad ass!
Sullenberger for President. Colbert for V.P. Just an idea.
once in a lifetime story,amazing.
