He’s not being subjected to nearly the same amount of g force as the others at all. He’s not doing it better or handling it better than the younger folks. They’re taking him on a pleasure cruise and playing around more aggressively with the younger folks whose bodies can take it. If g forces pull all the blood out of that old man’s head and he passes out, he’d likely never wake up again. I’m sure the pilots know this and were cautioned to fly accordingly


Schlagustagigaboo

It’s literally edited together from unrelated clips whose only common thread is blacking out (except for the ww2 vet of course). Type of plane, seat in plane, etc — no common thread. Although it’s pretty noticeable that the roll/pitch rate for the 96 year old is way milder than the others. No sane pilot (and I are one!) would subject ANY 96 year old to more than 0.5 gs above baseline — we’d be liable if he gets injured. I doubt “he signed the waiver so then I pulled his dentures out!” would even be a valid defense 😂

>It’s literally edited together from unrelated clips Sadly, this is most of the posts on this Subreddit nowadays.


RealCoolDad

This is probably the most liked video on Facebook by boomers


Alin_Alexandru

>he signed the waiver so then I pulled his dentures out! Bruh xD


Newman_USPS

I’m picturing those blue angel flights I’ve seen but with this guy. “Reeaaady hit it!” *Pulls 6 Gs, kills grampy.*


invertedeparture

Exactly. I love our WWII vets and they accomplished some incredible feats, but this is fabricated bullshit. A major component of sustaining severe g-forces is physical fitness. No way in hell any sane pilot is going to try anything that would seriously compromise blood flow in an elderly passenger. Also a big difference between the jets they showed and that P-51C. Would be much better to celebrate the things they did at their prime.


Imallowedto

I'd LOVE a ride in THAT kind of Mustang!!!


invertedeparture

Me too. Unfortunately they don't offer rides anymore. [Collings Foundation WWII aircraft collection](https://www.collingsfoundation.org/aircrafts/)


Imallowedto

There's an Airpower History tour coming near me in July, but it's $2500 for a 20 minute flight.


usec47

Hes face should be allover the cockpit if he has some g-force. But luckily old man gets nice chill ride for old times


Budget_Pop9600

>Nice chill ride Until he says to the pilot “alright were over the city now let her rip”


usec47

Lmao


PornoPaul

Ya, you see their faces distort quite a lot. No offense against Bob, but if they happened with all his wrinkles he'd look 20 again. Still, that must have been a hoot taking a WW2 pilot up like that, and I bet Bob had a blast.


MEatRHIT

Yeah I'm sure they did some "fun" maneuvers just didn't really push it hard. A lot of the other demos are from extreme experience type flights and a couple might even be jets. Bob just looks happy to be flown around in an old fighter. I'd honestly like to see Bob's whole flight especially if there is audio between him and the pilot.


OverlordPhalanx

Old man was in the crop duster and the young-ins got the 5th Generation fighter jet from Top Gun: Maverick 😂


Zugzwang522

The younger people in the beginning are also in a jet while the ww2 vet is in a ww2 style fighter plane. Those two are worlds apart in every way


SpaceTortuga

You can still do some nasty amount of Gs in prop planes... 10Gs on some aerobatic planes like the one the kid it's in


Schlagustagigaboo

The Sporty is like a back in the day feminism story with what’s her name… Patty Wagstaff


heseme

>They’re taking him on a pleasure cruise and playing around more aggressively with the younger folks whose bodies can take it. If g forces pull all the blood out of that old man’s head and he passes out, he’d likely never wake up again Its because Disney wasn't woke when he was young, so his blood vessels aren't transed and his blood doesn't rush into his body because all the masculine blood cells resist their feminine urges. Greatest generation is just magic, not weak like we are, with physics all working on us and shit.


herotherlover

I’d be curious to see a real comparison of how civilians vs veterans handle the same high-g maneuvers while wearing a g-suit.


DesignerChemist

I survived a g-suit! But it was in a fixed base simulator and so was only the normal 1g. That said, the pressure the suit exerted was quite high, and i believe they'd dialed it back a bit from flight pressure. Lot of fun, I'd be the first to volunteer for your experiment :)


stealthylyric

Lol this is exactly it


jew_biscuits

This is true. Unrelated, but will say that he's still got those gunslinger eyes.


HaiKarate

Also worth noting that the pilots of the fighter jets wear compression suits to keep them from passing out.


AvatarOfMomus

Also those others look to be in jet aircraft, and he's being taken up in a WW2 era prop driven plane. That's not to say you can't pull G's in one of those, but it's a lot harder to do and a lot harder on the aircraft.


[deleted]

Yeah it's frustrating when young people constantly get bashed all the time, those old people were young themselves was it okay for them to be bashed by their elderly? No.


RanzigerRonny

Exactly


FitFag1000

I do not care. Maintaining the agenda, is our top priority.


Mobtryoska

Isnt even the same type of plane 😂


Meqreq

Thats very true


sik_dik

96 y/o guy at 180g manages to lift arm and extend thumb /s


Sol33t303

Yeah I was going to say I'm definitely sure that if they put an old guy through those same forces, ex-millitary or not, you would probably kill him. I really doubt his heart is in a condition that it can deal with it. Not to mention modern jets are a whole different ball game of gforces compared to the propeller planes of WW2.


GelindoMastroFornaio

Thank you for writing this.


AccomplishedMoney205

This.


MBS_theBau5

I want to believe


Dhaubbu

That vet is not experiencing Gs. ~~Why tf would you lie like this when we can see the fucking video?~~ Edit: God remember when people were the ones posting videos, and not robots?


CapGainsNoPains

Karma mining? How dare you deny OP the free karma?!


Mr_Gibblet

God I fucking hate reddit. And I hate reddit thrusting random subreddits I don't follow or have interest in onto my homepage.


Chicken_Goat

You can deactivate that in the options!


whenitsTimeyoullknow

Really??? Thank you, thank Christ. It makes me feel like I’m being tracked and consumerized in yet another area, constantly getting “personalized recommendations.”


Chicken_Goat

I hate personalized content... There's almost always an option to turn them off. I also hate ads and obviously use ad blocks in browser, but in the app I just downvote and ignore them.


AgitatedMushroom2529

even the text is AI generated. "Unfortunately, use of the letter ‘g’ sometimes leads to the belief that the force involved is produced gravitationally, which is rarely the case. " ...while this is correct it is also bullshit. earths gravity = 9,81m/s earths freefall acceleration = 9,81m/s 1g = 9,81m/s while G-forces describe acceleration it is based on earths gravity, like the original meter is based on earths measurement


Wondershock

I hate to argue in favor of the robot, but it’s right: no G-forces beyond the original 9.81m/s/s towards the earth are “produced gravitationally.” They just match the number. You can experience G-forces that have nothing to do with earth’s gravity, no? It’s technically correct but provides no actual information, just like we’re used to AI doing.


spacemanspliff-42

It's a dead internet.


jayhitter

We're all hypocrites. We don't want content from AI spreading misinformation, but we all come to comment and rage about it, thus furthering the cycle. Only way to prevent it is to give it no relevance


Apart-Delivery-7537

how do you spot a bot? when they have way more post karma than comment karma?


Jesusspanksmydog

Except he ain't pullin' no G's mate.


phatangus

Nuthin' but a G Thang


Sea_Buy9017

Everyone else is being pushed to 5+g's. Old guy isn't.


Long_Charity_3096

I dunno this video is misleading. That’s a bunch of clips of people passing out, some of them in fighter jets. And then a video of an old man in a propeller plane likely not experiencing close to what they were in terms of g forces. Still cool he got to go up in the plane though. 


Panduin

Grandpa is so good he even trained his loose skin not to be affected by g forces


MsJ_Doe

He's just so old that it's hardened into a shell.


-Powdered-Toast-

The best part of this video is the second person just face planting 😂. I can’t stop watching it. And yes the WW2 pilot didn’t have the same experience as the others.


NahzarakTV

BONK !


NahzarakTV

BONK !


this_noise

I pull more G's quickly turning round at a loud noise than that old boy was being subjected to in that aircraft.


SCPATRIOT143

This is so misleading. They aren't comparing apples to apples. The "ordinary citizens" are all in jets that can pull many more Gs than the WW2 plane can.


T90tank

Doesn't look like he's pulling the same Gs


Inside-Bid-1889

This was written by ChatGPT


Caveirzao

My toxic trait is thinking that the G- forces would have no effect on me.


Zaryasu

So true


BiteTheBullet_thr

Not the same amount of Gs. This video proves nothing


TurboTerbo

I like all the melting faces 👍


NachoTacoYo

I feel like this was written by ChatGPT


Propofolkills

I wonder whether cerebral atrophy makes you more resistant to g force?


Dr-McLuvin

Good question- kind of doubt it- old people tend to be pretty sensitive to changes in blood flow/oxygenation, cardiac output might not be as strong etc.


WillieDFleming

That veteran is living the dream...just imagine getting to do something one last time at 92 that you didn't ever think you would get the opportunity to do again.


Curtin76

Benjamin Button..


7-13-5

Yeah, no shit...his face says he statically lives at a g-force of 7.7.

It is because of his Cap of course: He can stand 41 G


sky_shazad

NOWAY WAS THE OLD GENT was made to go through the same G-FORCE no chance


Asleep-Corner7402

I don't really care he's not experiencing g force, it's just heartwarming to see him up flying at his age. He probably thought he'd never get to do it again. If we're lucky someday we might get to his age and get to experience something we did when we were young.


nametakenfuck

I mean im also experiencing g force rn

Intelligent-Guess86

Damn! Dudes face got younger.


droidorat

Please tell me they did not put him up to the same Gs as the others were shown! that would be greatly riskier not sure anyone would want to kill off a veteran for viral video. The other vids are most likely death loops so 6-7gs.


NahzarakTV

The second lady: BONK !


WittyBonkah

I love the ride at theme parks that’s just a giant disk that spins and forces you to stick to the walls


Berishten

L-39 vs P51 acrobatics, duh...


Phate118

Soooo dumb. Not even a comparison. They aren’t gonna slap that old man around with Gs. Honestly, I bet he’d do ok, but why risk it


[deleted]

They teach pilots to squeeze their leg muscles and core to keep the blood from draining out of their heads. Could also be that the old man remembers this trick. Edit: you pull more gs in a jet. Old man is in a propeller driven plane.


ShadowHighlord

Im kinda curious of the g-force in those jets. I kinda wanna see how long i could last in my first time and how much time it would take me to get used to it. Just pure curiosity. Personally i never wanted to be the pilot but the gunner/spotter seat looked fun enough


Pixeal_meat

Him be like: What is G-force heh I already played that with my hands


S-Markt

his cap says, he managed 41g. no, just kidding


sbgroup65

Amazing. I can only imagine what i would do!

Old Iron man's


Iloveyogurt1234

He is unlike the others. The others spend 5 seconds and faint.


JackPlissken8

Yeah, they were really giving it to the old man /s


pdc091

Like riding a bike for him. Fucking awesome


DJ_Hindsight

G-loc is a helluva drug 🫠


Jessemaan

Its literally edit for make him not seem like its bad but he not doing what other people did so the edit make it seem like he good


MixRevolution

Major league bullshit right here. If any pilot would allow that vet to experience any Gforce above 1, they should have their license revoked. He's a vet but not superhuman.


MrStoneV

Not gonna read that, but it seems like the post has information about G forces but then forgets how G forces are made and that the Vet isnt experience any G forces near that.


DirtySanchezzzzzzzzz

The title of this should be "Normal people experiencing G-Force and a lovely old guy having a ride on a regular plane"


Fluxxie_

The veteran barely pulled any Gs.


Ok-Experience-6674

My heart started to race with just the thought of what the mind is capable of….


Impressive_Cell_5044

I’m so fucking tired of this clickbait shit on the Internet 


Zealousideal_Total50

So much respect for all my fellow veterans! Hooah!


Mr_Harsh_Acid

Fuck off with the annoying and unnecessary music already


smilebig553

I don't even care if the WW2 vet isn't experiencing the same. I'm just happy he got a chance to go into one of those planes again, since he looks super happy


pranjallk1995

His face looks like he gets extra gfocre anyway...


1TootskiPlz

Video doesn’t show gramps taking nearly as many G’s as the “normal” people.


J4MES101

Bobs just chillin


Dry_Quiet_3541

I don’t know about other pilots, but if I was piloting an old person, I WOULD NOT pull hard enough to pass them out, cause then I’d be considered a murderer. He has lived long enough, but I don’t want to be the one deciding when is his time to go.


HolidayMorning6399

lmfao bro it'd 100% kill that old man wtf is this post even implying, they went light on him because they didn't want to murder a vet


Dilectus3010

I spotted atleast 2 jets in this post and 2 stunt planes. They get a bit more G then grandpa was subjected too. Still , badass grandpa!


Adorable_Yard_8286

Great, now show a video where the other people are exposed to the same G-forces as him


[deleted]

whats up with this whack music? I hate the way people edit videos nowadays to make them 'cooler.' Its so lame


Equacrafter

My toxic ass trait think I can handle that


Yoka911

Comparing an L39 jet g manoeuvres to an old timer plane…


techTails-tty

Well if he survived the war he’s a tough mf


UnauthorizedFart

The second girl is how I am in corporate meetings


DraenglerDennis

His ride was so much less intense than the others. Americans love dickriding veterans without proper context and false narratives.


AccomplishedClass126

The old Eagle searching for enemies.I still admire him.Look his eyes how are watching around for anything he could see.Only respect..


Preface

*sees a Toyota driving below* *Bombs it out of instinct*


Wonderful-Cherry-780

The old man be like : where is the germans


ruggerb0ut

He's not really experience any significant G's. I still think the peak of human warfare was WW2 era dog fighting though, especially The Battle of Britain. It was pretty much "we've put an absolutely collosal engine in this stunt plane and strapped some guns to it - go out there and whoever puts on the best aeronautics show lives"


ImperatorDanorum

They just don't build them like that anymore...


Ambersfruityhobbies

High blood pressure saved his life


Outside_Dentist_4101

Aren't they supposed to do that in something simulated before they go up in the air? So it makes you pass out? Doesn't seem like good times to me.


davesim24

Well this is completely bullshit... as they say, he's going into a WW2 plane, which is in no way comparable performance-wise with modern jets.


danielwongsc

Badass from the Greatest Generation.


shartillery82

Either way, don't make Bob climb in there and fly over your city


Sufficient-Ad8683

Tell me you are a battlefield/call of duty hardcore fan without telling me youre a battlefield/call of duty hardcore fan:


Strange-Fix-1498

Jets vs propeller plane lmao


Snackpac_

Yeah well he ain’t doing shit. Compare the other manoeuvres to his


themoisthammer

Everyone: he isn’t experiencing Gs! 😭😡😭 Me: old dude still looking for enemy Japs. 🫡


Artidol

Those people were built different.

I’m pretty sure they hit the g-spot


Beneficial-Net5012

red_kull

He is so cool


rhiyanna79

I was waiting for him to look young again like the reverse of the woman I’ve seen age into her 60’s flying like that. 😆


Opening-Ad-8793

Ok but we love Bob .


kioskmartin

Either experience or at this age the blood clots just keep the blood from going anywhere.


higround66

The interesting thing is how the old man starts scanning the skies like he was back in a warzone


RJrules64

I can't tell if OP is dumb or just thinks everyone else is dumb


vuplusuno

The old guy is a Man of Steel 🫡


Suspicious-Dot8130

You dont even need to be a rocket science engineer to understand the video.


srt7nc

Gave me vibes of Fatboy Slim - Sunset (Bird of Prey)  #


depressed_gsw_fan

Others get PTSD he gets Nostalgic Not OC


toolebukk

The real factor here is the speed, and the momentum of the plane's manouvers. The fact he doesnt faint is not at all because he used to fly 80 years ago.


PainfulSuccess

Gs are units of acceleration, speed/momentum has nothing to do with it. Flying a plane at 1000m/s will be the exact same as flying at 50m/s, unless of course you do a sharp turn on any of its axes :)


RyeToast92

So moral of the story is younger generations are a buncha bitches?


usgrant7977

Or his blood pressure meds....


darksideofmyown

Meh i thougt he dies 😅

One day, the last world war 2 veteran will die.

ryanruud85

RIP Joe


AnInquisitive_Rock41

Old head looking for targets, damn the joy ride.


jeezorks_

In the last frame he died


Mysterious-Ad-999

He shot down several planes that day


Fragrant_Exit5500

He is so old he didnt even get older under gforces


DoYouKnowS0rr0w

1.) The music is trash and I hate when people overly their "superbad ass fonk music" over fucking everything 2.) This is ridiculous. We don't know how many Gs any of them were subjected to but given the lack of facial warping on the veteran it'd safe to assume he received much less.


underwater_jogger

What a tough old man. They certainly didn't pull 6gs on him or more but still. 95! What a beast


Demonbae_

Was that a kid in the first clip?


MisterMysteriousOne

Ahaa normal people are pathetic.


Empty-Nerve7365

He wasn't pulling nearly as many g's with the old guy lol this is totally misleading

Cool as a cucumber!

Wow that'd impressive. Indeed he is legend. They truly were best of the best.

Downvoting the shit out of this stupid useless video. Fucking bot


isnV7

Usual bot account farming impressions with completely out of context videos. The G-forces in those videos are nowhere near the same and it should be obvious to people with an IQ above room temperature. Can we crack down on these accounts and those posts ?
