- The Wright Brothers sold their first airplane to the United States Army in August 1909.
Their initial airplane (Model A) was tested at Fort Myer, Virginia on August 20th 1908. After a series of successful test flights, the plane crashed on the 17th of September 1908, severely injuring Orville Wright and killing his passenger, Lt. T. Selfridge.
Despite the disaster, the military was convinced the Wright Brothers had designed a capable airplane and extended their contract for one more year.
The Wrights designed another craft, the Wright Military Flyer. The Military Flyer differed from the Model A in that it had a rather shorter wingspan, longer propellers, set higher off the ground, and had a different gear ratio in the power transmission. These changes were made to increase the speed of the craft. The motor was identical to the one used the year before, however produced slightly additional horsepower as a result of modification.
The footage is from the original test flight in July 27, 1909.

Exactly! Nice observation Aman Singh.
Don't Watch It they use film cameras 🎥 I’m pretty sure
The truth is out there 👽
Really
ഹ ഹ .. അടിപൊളി
I grew up less than a mile from where Wilbur Wright was born. Their house is now a museum, and has a model of the original plane, and a modern jet fighter for comparison. It's a very cool place to visit.
That was quite a treat, thank you.
This is no doubt the Greatest invention in human history yet it's taken for granted.
Amazing! The most significant invention of the Century! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I wonder what if if just if any of these guys back then could see what we have today. I wonder what they would think. It all started with an idea. And we've learned so much since then.
My Grandfather was twelve years old when this was filmed. He learned how to fly right after WW1. He flew most everything the military had by the time he retired from the Air Force in 1951. He flew the proto type#1 of the P-26 Peashooter, he flew the first glider to ever fly in Hawaii. He lived to be 103 years old, 1896-1999. He wrote a book, 'From Jenny's to Jets, ' an amazing life. Flew B-17's and B-26'es during WW2. (Pelermo oil refinery bombing raids) Sharp as a tack at 103, he just didnt wake up one morning. God bless you Pop Pop.
Nice and wow!
My grandfather was born in 1906. It is amazing all the things that generation witnessed. He died accidentally at 93. From that side of the family we had five generations alive from 1949 to 1958. The oldest was born in 1858
Sounds like he had a life that was as good as it gets ! God bless Pop Pop! Hope you live that long (or longer) too James!
@@doorguru168888 Hoy, thanks mate. He was incredible. So many wonderful memories. We are glad he wrote a book about his life in the Army Air Corp/Airforce. The things he did and saw. Thank you again and have a wonderful life my friend.
Lived his life to the fullest . Great story rest in peace Pop .
imagine growing up with horses being the only means of transportation and seeing men walk on the moon in old age
yeah, my grandfather was born in 1889. He saw it all, it was pretty amazing to think of all the changes that occurred in his lifetime. Radio, Telephone, TV, first flight, jet, rocket etc...
True....
Thanks for putting those annoying cards at the end and blocking the footage!
@killer rock guitar True, an amazing time to live. He would have passed away just as the internet and mobile phones were beginning to take off. Those 2 are equally, if not more profound in changing the fabric of society as any invention before them.
@@spiritbreathlife7492 Same and even better will happen with us
Great footage why did you have to ruin the ending I didn’t get to see the landing because of the advertisements😢
This is happening all the time on UA-cam now- it's a disgrace. If they are intending to advertise the channel providing the video, then I'm afraid they have made a serious mistake because there is no point in watching movies withe the endings ruined.
actually it ends before touchdown
One solution might be to add a few seconds of “dead air” at the end to accommodate any ads.
nice video, probably the only filming about that historic event, it also becomes evident that MCAS worked fine, no nose-diving tendency detected
The ads can be removed, just search Google or UA-cam.
It's easily overlooked how brilliant this was.
Why do so many of these great films posted like this one have F*****G pops ups blocking the landing. Very very disappointing
Do a Google or UA-cam search about blocking pop ups

I love Orville and Wilber but, Charlie Taylor, their mechanic and machinist gets much credit too. He made the 12 hp motor mostly by hand, at the Wrights instruction of course. He was a very talented man and most never heard of him!
Engineers need heroes too
True.
Just like Elin Musk who never gives credit to his engineers for his supposedly incredible accomplishments
Thankyou...i never knew
1909 was highlighted in the video! this event never existed between 1903-1905. Dumont made the first flight in 1906, photographed and filmed. The plane appears after the Dumont event.
Sent chills down my spine! What an historic achievement!
35 years later and we had jets and rockets
Não vôo por meios próprios, Precisou de catapulta. Já o 14bis, De santos Dumont. Foi o primeiro que teve o vôo auto- propulsado da história.
@@nnatosilva1229 He was not before the Wright brothers. It has been debunked for years.
Imagine being a spectator that day. You’d heard the stories from 6 yrs earlier, and had now confirmed with your own eyes that powered, and controlled-manned flight had finally been conquered. What a thrill it must have been! 😊
And those final, low-level speed runs! That maniac must have been doing 50 miles per hour! Thumbs down for obscuring the landing with adverts.
Imagine them imagining us watching their antics over a hundred years later on our smart phones. To those who missed the ending, it was obscured due to its graphic nature - they augured in from 3 feet.
You got me thinking on your comment bullpucky along with the smart phone comment made by another person. So If you were 10 years old in 1903 you could have seen the first flight to man landing on the moon. That's a lot to get to experience in the history of flight.
@@outdoorfuninthesun2393 That describes my grandfather - born in 1898. I was a big fan of aviation as a child and certainly the space program. I remember seeing Gemini launches on TV when I was kindergarten age. What a culture shock for him though, from horse and buggy to cars, radio, cinema, airplanes, TV, jet aircraft etc.
Most of the spectators that are there aren't even watching. Many of them are walking away. Other have their heads down. Seems weird
Imagine actually being there in 1909 and running right up to a large crowd who is there watching the plane land for the first time and you stick a big advertisement sign right in their face so they cannot see the LANDING! Imagine their surprise!
Stop bitching and get a f'ing ad blocker.
@@thedave7760 ad blocked doesn't stop it for me
And just a few years later in WW1 they'd have real plane fights and the Red Baron.
@@thedave7760 He refers to the 3 cards at the end of the video blocking the part of the video that shows the landing unable to see the landing.
@@csp405 LOL,,,
My bad. It must have been late when I wrote that.
Say what you want about the internet, UA-cam or social media. That we are able to vies this historic footage over a century later is a honor and a miracle. It's not all bad.
I admit, though, that in this age of technology I feel compelled to say thank you for not adding sound or colorizing but there you go. The biggest thanks, of course, is for posting this film. It made my day.
Goes further than what you just said because the tech back in 1909 was high tech then. Smart people had a way to film it all in 1909 to.
Imagine as clunky as this plane was, in just five years, planes would become reliable enough to take to the air and kill each other at will, now that's progress!
yup, man is sure the number one killing machine !😐
no that is promotion of technology, progress is other concept
Wow ancient drones. Must be alien technology.
Not sure of the truth of this but the surviving Wright brother on seeing the use that airplanes were put to in War is reputed to have said "If we'd known we wouldn't have bothered."
I don't know about "reliable". More WWI pilots and trainees died due to accident then by being shot down.
This almost brought tears to my eyes to see this. The relentless effort by these brothers. They never gave up and risked everything. Truly incredible!!
Feel exactly the same way friend..these gentlemen changed the " world" forever..
Kinda paid off for them after a fashion. They sold the company for what would be today's equivalent of 26 million dollars. Tidy sum in those days.
From Bicycle mechanics to aviation experts in just a few short years, no college or fancy degree necessary!
@@4vndd Those brothers sand casted that Ford-based engine block from aluminum? 1 engine, 2 propellers.
Fascinating to see how it slowly gains altitude with each circle. Really shows how much engine power and speed improved within 10 years (by WWI).
Great men. They can never be forgotten. They made history.
.. first flight ever : Charles Frederick Page, first helicopter ever : Paul Leo Ortego !!! The wright brothers, are, liars ! ( ECCLESIASTICUS ) 20 : 24.. "A LIE is a foul blot in a man, yet it is continually in the the mouth of the untaught." 25.. A thief is better than a man that is accustomed to lie : but they both shall have destruction to heritage...
Why kill the last 10 seconds with adverts?
@Roberto ximangobom What about the bee-keeping journal? Are you saying that was lies?
Azure Horizon probably, an option could be to add 15 seconds blancscreen at the end.
@Roberto ximangobom did you what everyone is thinking right now?
Yes how bloody frustrating!. Would it kill them to let you see the film in its entirety. GREED!
@Roberto ximangobom I know. And the moon landing was a big hoax.
I had an uncle who lived to be 103 years of age. he was SIX when this took place That man could tell stories but stuf we only read about in history books Miss that man RIP uncle Verlin

113 years ago, time flies truly. Everytime I see old movies and film footage it makes me think about everyone that's moved on. It's a weird feeling to have a big family and then find yourself alone.
Thank you for sharing the video footage.
Some of the dust and junk on this film was added into the film to make it look older. I noticed some threads repeating so it was added dust and specs. I do like watching old films but we don't need to add in extra to make it look old.
Can anyone even imagine what it was like to actually be there at that moment and witnessing it first hand? Think about it. Just to be able to say, "I was there the moment the world changed forever."
What a maroon!

Ban landings.
I seen it with my own eyes I tell ya!!!
I took my first flight when I was about 7 in the front seat of my Dads tiger moth and I took my last flight in the left seat on a 777 three days before my 65th birthday . I owe both my dad and the Wright brothers a great deal . Giants in a time of giants .
Almost exactly 10 years later Alcock and Brown flew from Newfoundland to Ireland ( June 1919 ) Amazing development from the aircraft that Orville Wright flew that day ( July 1909 )
1974 the sr71 flew across the Atlantic in under two hours at 3400mph
Santos Dumont First!!
The first flight by Wright brothers was 1903, and only lasted a few seconds. This flight happened a few years later (1909), and was done to show the use of an airplane in the military. It was in 1911 that the first airplane was used--in World War 1. It's a little depressing that it took two decades for pilots thought to use airplanes for something more beneficial to mankind: crop dusting!
@@jeremyfinch2835 WW1 began in 1914
Sure would like to see the landing😊👍🏻
me too. its almost as if there was a way to not put ads for more videos obscuring such a magnificent act of human achievment.
What landing? I didn’t see no stinking landing.
Butuh pil perangsang boy
Kt Rina😁😁
I waited 110 years to see the landing of one of the most important flight in history, and you cover it up with Ads, no thumbs up for you buddy. : (
If you are on phone you can just exit full screen and have it to where you can see the comments and then just put your finger on the video and slightly scroll it down
It must've been amazing back then to see a machine leave the ground like that.
A bigger thrill was to land it and not crash.
Imagine being able to time travel, bring a modern day rc drone with. Blow everyone's mind!
@@markk3652 They would probably burn you as a witch. :P
Still it's an amazing sight
So amazing that as soon as it takes off everyone turns and walks the other way. It's like "Cool, humans can fly now, I'm off to catch the game..."
8 years ago of this flight the first aeroplane was flew by shivkar bapuji talpade who was an Indian
Why oh why obscure the landing like that? Do you think it makes people want to look at more of your videos?
I think UA-cam does that not the owner of the video
The ads can be removed, just search Google for UA-cam.
I still haven't found out how to remove those destructive blinders, so I download the videos and watch them off line.
At those days, this video was FULL HD
Guess us content creators need to keep that in mind and add some buffer of unimportant stuff at the end of our uploads!
Sixty years later-on the MOON!
@martin joseph Oh - the Krauts and Frogs placed those tri-corner reflectors on the moon's surface? If it weren't for the jealous foreign cunts on here saying otherwise I could have SWORN us Americans, did that.
The Wright brothers couldn't fly on the moon: The density altitude is too high.
and 60 years after that living and working in space we have come a long way since Kittyhawk now we are going to live on the moon.
@@geomodelrailroader actually companies into space exploration are looking at Mars
@@frankw3217 that too Moon possibly.
Kudos to the Wright brothers. What never gets mentioned is that much of the theoretical principle of flight which the brothers studied were all worked out by an obscure British aristocrat in Yorkshire England. The sixth baronet of Brompton, Cayley was born in 1773. He actually built a glider which successfully flew a full fifty years before the Wright brothers.
A glider is not a plane. He did not fly, he glided.
@@_________. Sorry old boy, as a Class Rated Examiner, let me assure you that a glider most certainly is classified as an Aircraft. It is all enumerated under the Rules of the Air. Go look it up.
@@tomarmstrong1281 it does not matter what it’s classified as. Gliding is not flying.
@@_________. Whatever you say. As a PS take a little time time to watch a bird in flight. There will be periods when if is not flapping its wings. It is gliding, but it is still flying. Open your eyes, open your mind.
Everything is built on everything that came before it, be it simple or complex machines or just ideas
Apparently they also invented catapult launches for Aircraft Carriers, but didnt realize it!!
I thought that too, when I saw the video.
Yha all they needed was a ship
That's what I was thinking good call
True!
They needed a taller tower and longer ramp but it got them airborne, they were definitely thinking many decades ahead of their time with the catapult launch.
Flying machine: *is finally perfected after decades of trial & error, allowing humans to realise a dream they've had since antiquity: to touch the face of the sky.
Humans: Hey, do you think we can turn this into a war machine?
Yeah, lets kill people with it!!
Well said DeadMan....
yes..We must protect our republic.and against all that threaten out normal way of life.
sad
Right! Hey, let's kill some people!
*I always hear people complain about white men, why not mention all the good things white men did. Like invented the airplane.*
Must have been hard to land when those boxes of suggested videos popped up out of nowhere just in time to ruin the landing. Orville and Wilbur were amazing pilots.
Stop putting advertising at the end of the video. No-one can see the landing for all the ads. you ruined your own video.
Dumbass, UA-cam does that.
The ads can be removed, just search Google or UA-cam it's all there.
@@grumpusmaximus9446 Dumbass yourself Grumpus. I have ad block. I never see any ads. The suggested video popups at the end that everyone is comlaining about are NOT removed by ad blockers. Now if you have an actual solution, then post it. Otherwise shut your overly repetitive trap.
Love the Wright Brothers. This film is great but it’s not the first flight. The first flight was done in Kitty Hawk, NC on December 17th, 1903. There were only pictures taken on this day. The flights in the film where taken in 1909 at Fort Myer Virginia for Army trials to see if military would purchase rights to the plane for military use. The more you learn about these guys the more interesting they become. Wilbur died in 1912 two weeks before the Titanic tragedy from eating tainted oysters. Orville died in 1947 seeing the beginnings of the jet age. God Bless them. Their story embodies the true American story of hard work, determination and problem solving to realize a dream which had fascinated humanity for thousands of years.
Then...."If man were meant to fly, God would have given him wings." Today......"If man were meant to have a flying car, God would would have taken away all the roads, the lawyers n' built George Jetson houses "
Imagine if that were today “ um your going to have to apply for a permit to build that and we don’t think your qualified to operate it and where are all your hard hats and fire extinguishers “

My heros...I became an aircraft build and pilot BECAUSE I was inspired...like no other!!!
They didn’t even put on a helmet, now that’s confident:)
I think that the achievement of the Wright Brothers was the most stunning of the 20th Century. Two guys with high school educations built the world's first powered, controllable airplane in their workshop in Dayton, Ohio. A mechanic named Charlie Taylor made the engine out of lightweight aluminum. It's like a two-bowl, hash dream; yet, it was real. Look where we are 100 years later. Sir Richard Branson just boosted himself and a few employees 50 miles high & tomorrow, Jeff Bezos will rocket out into space.
O vôo do vídeo foi e de 1908 na França! Quem mudou o mundo foi Santos Dumont com o seu 14 bis em 1906 e seu modelo demoselle de 1907. Como os Wright mudaram o mundo se voaram só em 1908 com motor francês e ainda dependendo de catapulta?
Read "The War of the Worlds," by H. G. Wells, published in 1898. Spoiler: back then, the ability to fly was apparently seen as the pinnacle of technological achievement.
@@gghhhfghghThe Wright Brothers first flew in 1903.

Yes, haha, we've certainly come far in our sophistication haven't we....
This must have been an incredible sight for everyone there. Just a few years earlier nobody believed it was possible to fly like this. Amazing work by the Wright brothers.
Not that great. When the title of the video said "Military Aircraft," I didn't see one 30mm ADEN Mk 4 mounted anywhere. Such a let down... thumbs down, unsubscribed...
Instant transition from the cowboy days to the aerospace era.
Actually, if you take a look at the crowd, there didn't seem to be much interest. Right after take off, dozens of people can be seen walking away and not bothering to look at the flying airplane at all... 1909 was a full six years after the Wright brother's first flight, and a handful of people around the world had demonstrated their own flying inventions (Santos Dumont, Louis Bleriot, Henri Farman, etc.) so the concept of an airplane was no longer a novelty...
@@retrovideoquestNowadays they'd be looking at their cell phones😅
yeah if any of them even bothered to watch it? go rewatch it and see the "thrilled" spectators.
Greatness lives in the minds who tirelessly pursue it.
Now we are enjoying what people sacrifice their lives for, I'll forever be grateful for God's wisdom for special people to make life easier for our generation, Respect!
They way that craft slides through its turns is a thing of beauty. It’s hard to believe how far ahead these guys were from anyone else at the time.
And yet random people will still argue they weren't the first
@@WaybackRewind exactly that's the only reason I'm watching this I'm flipping through the comments I know that they're here they talked about the guy from Brazil and one from France
There was another French guy who had come up with the same concept, but the Wright Brothers were the ones to patent it and bring it to fruition.
@@WaybackRewind and @skyedog24 Do a little research fellas... There were a lot of people trying to fly at the turn of the century. It is very likely that someone else did it first, but failed to document the feat. That the Wright brothers documented their efforts so thoroughly is a testament to this. Starting with their first trip to Kitty Hawk in 1900, they kept detailed journals, sent telegrams, had their father notify the newspapers, and of course, took hundreds of photographs (they were quite adept amateur photographers)
Moral of the story: If you want to make it into the history books.... Document your work.
@@James-re6co true and also by 1909 the Wright flier was literally flying circles around other planes at the time. Other may have barely made it into the air earlier but their design was far superior. Langley's airplane is a joke compared to theirs.
Fun Fact: Wright military flyer speed 40mph in 1909
Fastest jet aircraft in world is the SR-71 Blackbird at 2,100 mph

Just imagine what they would think if they were able to see the planes of today.
_DAMN.. I Shouldn't Have Given the Idea to Wright Brothers_
*I Must Destroy the Time Machine*
I read a book about these brothers, but I didn't know that the flights were captured on film. People have long dreamed of flying, and the dream has come true.
yes just lucky that the camera had also been invented.
It amazes me how many people were looking down or walking away as this airplane took to the skies.
That's what I was thinking too! Like how could they look down or walk away while humanity tool one big step forward? Were they critics or are we missing something big? What was going on in there minds? What would have impressed them if these did not?
I feel like science people at that time just before the world wars were incredibly bright and wise with incredible knowledge ready for the next great technological revolution after the industrial revolution. I just feel all that went to waste after almost everything was obliterated in the wars. Society was set back by thousands of years.
Skeptism and the green eyed jealousy
@@frencusmcguire8547 huh? Wars are bad for many reasons but they do accelerate science and technology, radar, sonar, advanced flight, space rockets, computers, all came out of WW2 and WW1 did the preparations
These were the people that saw the plane fly many times before. They were likely crew or press. Like with the moon and shuttle launches it's less exciting each time
@@cgaccount3669 well, for what it’s worth, I still find flying exciting. That’s why I became a pilot. :)
We have these brave pioneers to thank for Air travel today. Amazing the efforts they made to fly and stay airborne. Then 5 years later people abused these efforts by taking pleasure in shooting one another down during the first World War.
Percy Briscoe your disgust is very legitimate. Unfortunately it is always that way with the military. Inevitably advances in technology are used to benefit the military before the private sector. I could cite numerous examples but you know them. It sucks and unfortunately it's just the way it is.
Without both world wars aviation would not be where it is today, war and the threat of war always advances technology far quicker than during peacetime.
@@Jabber-ig3iw Very true. Let's hope theres enough people left standing to enjoy the advanced technology.

Man never landed on the Moon. It was all staged to make the world believe they were walking on the Moon. It was proven the Van Allen Belt was too dangerous to penetrate without a high dose of deadly radiation.
Remember, in 67-68 they sent Monkey through the Belt and on return the Monkeys were sick and perished. To this day and age you still thinks men walked on the Moon?
Do you know who much fuel that Module would have needed to just blast off from the Moon on return to earth?
Even the supposedly Chinese Moon landing have been done unmanned.
You can sent a craft and land in the Moon, like the Mars landings, but you can't sent a man in flesh and bones. They have to find ways to break through the Belt first.
@@mickcarson8504 how do you think that radiation is contained? Just use a plate made out of platinum, tungsten or lead and its done so I dont understand your nonsense
Excellent video. Run it at .75 speed and suddenly the footage looks much more real, rather than suffering from the more common the sped up vintage look. Very cool footage, amazing. Thanks for posting it.
petcatznz
Cool tip. It does look more realistic.
The hand cranked cameras of the day averaged about 10 frames per second so that would be about the right amount to speed it up. You need at least 16 to 18 fps minimum for persistance of vision and to avoid flickering.

They probably didn't realise how important it was and could never have known the civil aviation that would evolve from it.

Unfortunately, most of them may not able to afford airfare at that time, just we couldn't afford flight to outer space average people like myself now 😀

Obrigado por aceitar os voos deles para 1908, este foi em julho o primeiro vôo mesmo foi maio de 1908, sem corrida e decolagem, não conseguiam fazer isto e foi só 337 metros, jogaram de cima de uma duna de areia e em 1907 haviam buscado a planta do 14 bis com Ferber em Paris e trouxeram dois motores de lá. Os voos de 1903-1905 nunca foi possível provar
Only eleven decades ago. Think of the incredible advances in aviation since then!
@@latchkeyed959 The average lifespan of a combat pilot in 1916 was measured in weeks.

If one adjusts playback speed to 0.75 (see 'settings') it is much closer to actual speed.
@Roberto ximangobom this is third time you bring this up. What is your problem with 1903 to1907? Filming something was rare, not like today with everyone with a cellphone. Is there actual video of Thomas Edison's first light bulb illuminated inventing the light bulb? Do you believe of the Moon landing actually happened in 1969 or was it done on a sound stage in Hollywood? Have a little fate that did happen as recorded. Either that or invent a time machine but may sure you have video and creditable witnesses., if there is such a person.
First flight to moon landing took just 66 years. Just amazing 👍😀
But moon landing was fake...
Mars landing sixty years later as well

Wow the adds covered the landing........take the fricken adds off will ya.....
Amazing, less than forty years later Chuck Yeager breaks the sound barrier.

Spoiled by advertising when landing at end.

This machine is not the flyer 1,2 or three. It is the model A flyer. In 1907 they sought the description of the DUMONT'S machine and managed The description of Farman's machine from January 1908. Don't you think it's strange that the Wright's ability to fly between 1903-1905 was never proven? Where are the official documents? Did we lack time to call the United States the greatest aeronautical authority of the time THE PARIS AEROCLUBE founded in 1898 !!!
There was no footage of the landing. Typical click bait.
Amazing footage. The next time someone asks you for an example of American Exceptionalism, send them a link to this video.
Nunya Business How about Santos Dumont? (1903).
And then a link to Frank Whittle.
@@rageagainstthenumpty4608 and George Caley and many others.
Good for Santos.... the Wright brothers flew in 1901....
@martin joseph you are correct.
All before that flew were uncontrolled flights that ended
In disaster badly hurt or dead.
If you want to see how they flew and died go to your hobby shop
And buy a children's plane glider
Kit. Assemble. Climb up a 15 foot
Ladder and throw it. Now watch it
It crash and break up.
The flight race was all about controlled flight. Take off fly and
Land safely. The wright boys were
The first !! Great Americans !
They WON !! The rest of the world
Had 7 years to get it done and did not. nobody was interested or did
Not believe them so they took it apart put it into storage.
Finaly somone in France took a
Chance. They shipped it thier
Flew controlled flight in front
Of thousands of people.
The rest is history.....my friend.
Shoulda sent THIS cameraman lookin' for Bigfoot!
I cannot tell a lie. I liked the ad at the end so much I got out my credit card and called them immediately. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate the sales pitch. How did we ever live before in-your-face ads 😂
Lol
Lol
@tiluu no, it's a way to attract consumers attention to purchase their products. That is the purpose of an advertisement. Not all products are necessarily bad.
I am also a great fan of sarcasm..
I certainly hate ads. There are way too many. Its like a never ending brain cancer. 🙄
I think it’s so interesting that the film industry was coming about at the same time that the airplane and the automobile were also coming about for the first time. It seems there was an explosion of ideas at the time and luckily we are able to see it. Awesome innovation on three levels at the same time!
This footage should have had Highway to the Danger Zone playing in the background.
Real bad footage. I bet it was filmed with an IPHONE?
😂😂😂😂
Imagine How many "imagine" comments are here
Lol
Wilbur “did you bring the landing instructions?” Orville “I thought you had them!”
So proud to have been born in the state that helped so much to bring us light (Edison), flight (the Wright brothers), the first American in space (Glenn) and the first man on the moon (Armstrong), just to name a few of Ohio's favorite sons.

“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
You make curses seem likeable.
Glenn was NOT the first American in space, it was Alan Shepard. Glenn was first American in orbit.

Billyrocket62, you are right. My mistake.
Muito bem amigos, dêem uma olhada nas imagens de 1906. We do that First. O avião é nosso, á Embraer não.
After thousands of year man finally learns to fly. It's been downhill ever since.....
The passenger sat in a tiny seat with nothing to eat or drink. We have come so far.
@
carbidegrd1.... Last time I was on a plane, I sat in a tiny seat and had nothing to eat because apparently a bag of peanuts adversely affected the bottom line. We may have come far, but I think we're regressing in some matters.

Thank you Orville Wright and Wilbur Wright for making flight possible...
And now going to the next level,anti gravity aircrafts
Thank you nature....the birds made flight possible thousands of years before this :-)
Yeah birds also have had wings.... Humans did not... until the Wright brothers figured out how for us to fly with the wings they created...
@@chattonlad9382 You mean 10's of millions of years.
Wilbur sadly died of the now-curable typhoid in 1912, but Orville lived to see all of WW2, and the beginning of The Jet Age... probably spent all day just bragging to female groupies! ;')
Just 10 years after this a plane managed to cross the Atlantic ocean.
To think how rapidly technology advanced from 1900 to 2000
Could you imagine living your whole entire life and only ever seeing birds fly, yet you cruise up to see two quirky brothers trying to do just that, fly like the birds! 😱

Exceptvit was not them. It was Dumont from Brazil. Wright bros were busted as having lied about dates, events and flights a few years ago.
@@chipnormandy4537 Where did you hear that propaganda from? I would like to see any proof or evidence to your claim, never ever make a statement without backing it up with irrefutable evidence.
@@ZENMASTERME1 what's even more disappointing than the lies about Wilbur and Orville is the incredible lack of intelligence from the commentators here who parrot everything they've heard or read others say or written, without doing their own investigating. Hitler said the jews were horrible people and they must die, and all of Europe went along with it. It's the same scenario here: Someone wrote it or said it so it must be exactly as they said it is and no need to research for yourself. SMH.
😑
@@chipnormandy4537 First off the Wright brothers did it three years before Dumont, there was no big cover-up, because the amount of spectators, video footage archives, and paper articles of their historical flight that within 24 hours was written about in nearly every country around the world in 1903. I don’t know where you’re getting your information from, but I would sure like for you to present evidence to your claims.
Alberto Santos-Dumont achieved the first officially observed powered European flight on October 23, 1906, in France. By flying nearly 200 feet in the “14-bis,” he won the Deutsch-Archdeacon Prize of 3,000 francs for surpassing 25 meters (about 80 feet). On November 12, 1906, he improved upon this performance by flying 722 feet in 21 seconds and won the Aero-Club de France prize of 1,500 francs for the first flight of at least 100 meters (240 feet). This flight fell three years and 150 feet short of what the Wright brothers accomplished in 1903 at Kitty Hawk.
@@ZENMASTERME1 I'm not going to read your Dear John letter. Please attach citations to all of your claims.
...and just 60 years later Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon.
I consider an honor to watch this video. Thank you very much for sharing it!!!
