    I'm a pilot from Brazil, so I can tell something about the two last accidents of the video. We were in a major event in Brasília and I was in the air when I saw the two guys with the reserves deployed. The one filming, Marcus, got away with no scratches, only equipment damage, unfortunately the other pilot Alan wasn't so lucky. He had his femur broken and the surgery was not as expected, but in the end everything went fine.
    In the other video the guy who smashed in the water just ended his day of SIV and decided to make another flight by his own. He had no radio and the instructor was in the ground yelling for him to trow the reserve, with no response.

    Those guys got those reserves out REALLY quickly, like there was zero thought, just reaction, which was exactly what was required. Good on them for obviously practicing, being aware at least after the crash (for the guy in the rear). It's pretty bad when the guy looking rearward has more situational awareness than the guy looking forward.
    GEEZ, the sound when that guy hit the water was painful just to listen to.

      Too bad he had injuries, but even that was pretty minor, considering what it looked like on video. Those skies look too busy for my taste, kind of like flying into Oshkosh during the fly in. No chutes or reserves in our case, obviously.
      I was under the hood one day, training toward my private in a 152, and we were supposedly being followed by Exec radar, when all of a sudden I had the yoke wrenched out of my hands, and we did a VERY hard bank and yank at about 70 degrees. I very quickly popped my head back to look, and saw a twin boring through the space we just occupied, still wings level, and we were the ones looking directly INTO the sun, which is why we had requested ATC monitoring.
      ATC never said a word about it, before, during, or after. I wanna tell ya, they heard about it though. Thank god my instructor was paying full attention or I wouldn't be writing this. The air is not a forgiving place, when serious errors are made.
      The best you can do is learn from situations like that, needless to say, really, which is also obviously why Tucker takes the time to do these analyses, and for my money, he does a good job of it.
      I'm probably too old now to get into this sport, but MAN, does it look like fun! Stay safe.

    The outside pressure on wing-overs is counter intuitive if you're just thinking about it like a side to side turn. If you realize there is a lot of pitch change on higher wing overs it becomes a lot more intuitive. When coming off the high side and starting to swig back to the other side, the outside of the wing takes a steep angle of decent and surges/ dives toward the ground, so the outside brake is acting as some surge/ pitch control, its just asymmetric. Once I started looking at it like this, it became much more intuitive for me. I just realized it's not outside brake to counter steer the wing, it's really just slowing the surge and I'm used to doing that when flying out of every thermal and on a lot of my inflations.

    I have been looking forward to some more of these! This is the kind of content (as well as the lazy flights over fields) that really interests me. Analyzing where people messed up, and how to prevent it, is so important. My helicopter instructor was actually killed in a helicopter crash a few months after I gave up training, using a customer's old helicopter doing max performance takeoffs too close to some pine trees. They collided with the trees, fell 80 feet, and burned to death in the cockpit. It's sad, but you can learn a lot from reading such reports and understanding the causes. Keep up the good work.

      Through years of skydiving I only had one really serious snivel. I had altitude so I tried to clear it. Finally went for the cutaway and reserve ripcord. I started an “Oh sheet!” and suddenly the chute popped open with a pretty good whack…ouch. I hadn’t pulled the cutaway completely loose so I carefully patted it back onto the Velcro. Didn’t make me want to quit skydiving but it did make me hyper aware of my equipment, pre jump prep, body position…etc. Now my body says no más but boy do I miss my brief but eventful youth. 🪂

    The last video with uncontrolled rotation into the water: 100% recoverable by pulling outside brake. Your suggestion of trying to clear the cravat whilst still rotating is what people often try, and is incorrect. Good SIV instructors teach this the same:
    1. Stop the rotation (or throw reserve if you're not trained or don't have altitude to solve problem)
    2. Get a heading and fly away from danger like terrain
    3. Clear cravat
    As Malin Lobb points out, uncontrolled rotations to the ground are the biggest killer in the sport, so it's important to get this right

    The guy doing the hangovers spiraled into the lake, not because of the cravat but his response was improper. Aviate navigate communicate. Fly straight and aviate. When he got the cravat could have shifted his weight and flew straight. Most important thing in all of this aviation from parawing to stealth bomber. Fly straight. If it will fly it will fly straight. Whenever your flight path curves you increase the load on the wing rapidly. If you had a flight path that was straight after you had this cravat you wouldn't have problems landing. When he had the problem, he should have focused only on flying in a straight line. At first the curvature wasn't too bad but it kept tightening and tightening and tightening and he never should have let it begin to turn in the first place.

    • @blinkindots
      @blinkindots Місяць тому

      @@DrAElemayo like you said. I don't know about the paramotors, but in normal paragliding, based on the SIV sessions, when you got in auto-rotation by asymetric collapse and let it rotate couple times to get it its max impact, you get support from the inner side of the risers and weight-shift to outside. You don't even have to just pull outiside breaks too hard. And if you haven't done this kind of exercise before, maybe you're not used to it because it involves relatively higher Gs and affects much more than even spirals, so you can get caught off guard. Some kinds of these cravats, in a real scenario, could said to be more harsh then artifically created auto rotations. Even the higher cravats, which, in this scene, are said to be much harder to recover than others. When you get into this situation, if you cant recover anyhow, you can release the inside brake, grab with both hands the outside brake, and pull it as hard as you can. That is one and possible the only way to recover from the hardest cravat caused autorotation, ofc if you have enough altitude. if not so, throw your reserve without second thought..

I recently decided I was going to start flying again. I bought my wing & and gear, now I'm considering ppg. I would love any thoughts you might have on a motor for a non- aggressive 185lb. 56yr old Pilot. I do love the peace and quiet of paragliding, so i don't know if a quiet motor is a dream or if they even exist. And last, these old bones would love something light.

Something to give people some proper foundation to look at. There are videos out there but not the greatest or on a spicy wing and you can’t see much. I think this would also be beneficial to show pilots you don’t need to upgrade your wing prematurely and you should be nailing them on easy wings first

    UA-cam sucks and is soon to be gone. Someone needs to develop a true platform for creators without forced ads. UA-cam ads have gotten ridiculous lately and they continue to demonetize their creators. Many of the public prank people have moved to private websites to upload their videos. Maybe you should make something similar for paramotor/aviation content creators.

    As someone who films motorsports events using drones the guy buzzing the race kinda irritates me. We get paid to film, its our job, as pilots you need to recognize that events are hotspots for drones now and to not buzz events smh. No reason you need to be flying that close not to mention the carlessness letting his goggles go through his prop luckily no one was injured by that at the event

    • @austinflagg
      @austinflagg Місяць тому +2

      I’m part of the dirt bike club that put on the race, it was requested and coordinated by race event staff for me to do a flyover prior to the beginning of the race so I would have the field to fly around, this was not a random buzzing of an event. The googles are 100% my fault and very lucky no one got hurt from that mistake. Unfortunately you’re not able to see when goggles come off your helmet and get caught in the netting behind you. Will apply some sort of safety strap to them from now on to prevent this from happening again

    • @AAronFpv
      @AAronFpv Місяць тому +1

      @austinflagg good to know and glad you made it down safe! I've been filming events before and had random guys come flying over at treetop height no warning, nothing. As a drone operator I'm ultimately responsible if they hit me doing that and I think that's bs. They're supposed to be 500ft or higher unless landing or taking off just like were supposed to be under 400ft. Obviously this was requested so it doesn't fall in that category

    • @TuckerGott

      @@TuckerGott aren't you subject to part 103 regulations? When I grew up flying expirmentals we weren't required to have licenses or register the aircraft like now but we still maintained a minimum of 500ft just for safety if nothing else. Plus drones didn't exist back then so we wouldn't have had to worry about them like today. Just saying buzzing events like I've seen (not this situation) isn't the safest thing for anyone these days seeing as drones are more than likely going to be at events.
