What the hell? In that video there's 3 crashes, is that the same crash from three different cameras or are all the pilots just like "THE SHOW MUST GO ON! OH SHIT WE'RE CRASHING AS WELL"
Even so, that's brutal. The guy fucking filmed a dead kid that was cut in half.
EDIT:
Ignore this post, it was late and I wasn't thinking properly, go on and rate me dumb.

I of course feel bad for everyone who died and all the families of people who died, but I also feel really bad for the pilots, who have to live with themselves after what happened.
Russia keeps fucking up.

It says on the wikipedia page that the pilot and co-pilot were jailed for 12 and 8 years, for not following orders and bad flight conduct, so it sounds to me like they were being cocky and flying lower than ordered to. I don't feel sorry for them.

Unless you're dumb you'd know that those are taken from different cameras at the same time.
Sweet jesus. That ukraine one was horrible, i think that picture is actually more horrifying than the video.

What the fuck
Ironic how the Pilot survived.
Wow I thought that was fake... It showed a dead kid...
Usually, I'm really tough with these kind of things. I'm never screamish. But that video, it almost made me sick.
I blame HQRSE.
That video isn't sickly.
It's just dead bits of body.
Nice video of the one crashing... got to love how Big their ego's are but eject when the aircraft is still fully controllable and directly over a crowd
(Crash I posted about, not the Ukraine one)
Still, Pilot shouldn't have been flying over a crowd to begin with (Ukraine)
[QUOTE=pieman;16762515]Ironic how the Pilot survived.[/QUOTE]
Not really, he ejected.
Also, I thought that arm was a dead cat at first. I was like "Is that a dead cat? OH GOD.."

Holy fuck. And facepunch gives funny ratings for something like this?
Somewhat outdated jets, but who can blame russia, they can't even afford new guns for themselves, they still use 50 year old models
The best part is that pilot is going to spend the next 11 years of his life crying in a jail cell.

85 people, man. Gives me chills every time I see it. I recommend you don't watch the video.[/QUOTE]
Got a link to the video?
[QUOTE=PLing;16758251]If it were a photoshop, I'd congratulate the guy on a very realistic one. It's just the focus.[/QUOTE]
Due to the miracle of avatar post association, I read this in James May's voice. It sounded great.

Also, fuck you guys with your scary crash videos, I'm going to an airshow this weekend.

I still feel bad for people who do bad things on accident, though. They may have fucked up pretty badly, but they didn't mean to and even though it's probably completely their fault, all the same I feel bad for the exceptionally heavy conscience they probably have over mistakenly killing 84 people. It's not like they [i]wanted[/i] to do that.
When the guy filmed the ejected pilot there was another guy patting the pilot on the back while running past him, I was like :D and then I realized what I was whatching and I was :(
OP has appropriate avatar for the thread.

Except my avatar is still Inside a working jet
Also, in the photo of the Su 27 pilot ejecting, you can see the force of the ejection is nearly causing him to choke on his danger zone
That Ukraine video is so fucked up.
What the fuck is wrong with you Facepunch, also the video.
=/
Fuck can you imagine how the pilot felt... I wouldn't want to live if I did something like that.
That video....how does that even happen? A jet crashing into people? I'd expect people thrown and maybe crushed/burnt, but severed limbs? People cut in half? What does that?
Very good show , to be honest.
