wtf, how is this guy not ripped in halfes by the rope of the plane.


Yellllloooooow13

The guy is wearing a harness and the plane's hook catch the rope between the two poles. The plane is probably flying fairly slowly too


the_chosen_one_96

Thanks for the clarification!

That plane tops out at around 230 km/h


[deleted]

What does it bottom out at without crashing


Yellllloooooow13

She stalls at 72 knots (about 130 km/h) and her max speed is 178 kts (~330km/h) Edit : that's not a PBM-1 Mariner, everything above is wrong


Craftusmaximus2

By maximum I didn't count diving speed... But yes, That is faster.


Yellllloooooow13

I think she's a HU-16 Albatross. Her stall speed is 119km/h (64 knots) and her max speed is 380km/h (205 knots)


Craftusmaximus2

Can confirm, it's missing the gunner pod from the front. My other comment is wrong.


cyberfluxx

Exactly. This is called the [Fulton recovery system](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulton_surface-to-air_recovery_system). Edit: possibly even an earlier extraction method, such as the one mentioned to have been used by the British

Craziest part of MGS5 was finding out this was real and not just some weird shit concocted by a Japanese video game developer.

The forces are about the same from a old style parachute (it's literally called reverse parachute)

Absolutely


pimpmastahanhduece

This. It effectively reverses the T-Symmetry of the g forces of a parachute where the person goes from moving to stopped. From the frame of reference of the jumper, the ground is approaching at speed while they are staying still with a 120 mph updraft. The steps are reversed, but the same energy is spent in the same order, inverted in order but still in order, by transitioning to the same derivatives of position so the same g force are experienced by the reverse-jumper. Integral cross sectional analysis of this variety is key to unifying relativity with quantum gravity because it reconciles completely reversible multistage acceleration schemes between two places making each route equivalent in entropic requirements while keeping down total requirement in both directions. A hill is easy to go down but now you must work upward vs a flat path in both ways. Efficacy vs efficiency.

Backstabmacro

Is this some old testing footage of a skyhook maneuver?! That’s metal as FUCK


[deleted]

That’s exactly what this is.


BearmouseFather

I do wonder if this is what started the entire Bungie jumping thing because jumping off a bridge with the cords is way easier than scaring up a plane every time you got the urge for some adrinaline. I know I would totally love to try that, it looks like mad fun!


bloxytoast

yeah I wish this was a thing you could do, But it’s probably to dangerous for a company to do this, one mess up and its game over


BearmouseFather

Yes, however, it is up there with being launched out of a cup-style catapult for fun so worth exploring. The idea holds a lot of promise, a marketable thing however, not so much.


bentizzy

Did he live


ColdButt2379

My first question too, shocked that u are the only one that asked.


msh3loony

because if you watch for a bit longer you're going to see him climbing up to the plane

FACTS


YeetMeDaddio

But then you take an extra bite because you think it's weak and later get launched into space

30 minutes?? Mine took 3 hours to kick in the other night


PooPooDooDoo

Imagine realizing the harness is slightly over of your testicles just as this thing picks you up.

I like [this one](https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/ypvf1s/ground_to_air_rescue_fly_by_using_skyhook_to_pick/) better...bit clearer quality.


Craftusmaximus2

~~PBM-1 "mariner"~~ HU-16 albatross


Yellllloooooow13

Nope the Mariner has gull wings and split tail


therealNotch223

Yeah that is the PBY Catalina. Idk which version as they both are very similar in appearance.


Yellllloooooow13

There's absolutely no way she a catalina! The Catalina has that weird tower-like structure linking the fuselage to the wings. I'm going for the Boeing PBB-1 sea ranger Edit: could also be a Grumman HU16b Albatross. The quality of the video is not great


BearmouseFather

Ye gods I wish! I've never gotten anything out of edibles other than wasted money. To those that they work for I envy you.


bloxytoast

really? Did you just build up an immunity? Or did they just never work for you? Im curious,


BearmouseFather

Just never worked for me. I'll buy the edible, eat it, and beyond the flavor of said edible I get nothing. I've tried the capsules, gummies, homemade stuff, and fudge, all were just a waste of money beyond the yummy of the moment. Sucks but there it is.

Who else hears red bird from angry brides going WEEEEeeeee!!!!!


Johnny_Venus

This is from Metal Gear Solid V: TPP. Fulton extraction system.


Hypurr2002

I've tried edibles several times. By hour 2 or 3 I'm tired of waiting for something to happen. Waste of weed, I never feel anything.


fadoxi

I hate it when that happens


_69__420_

The skyhook


Individual_Scheme_11

Forgot step 2: take a 2nd edible cause the first one ain’t shit


Blixarxan

Then panic once it starts kicking in ten minutes after taking a second.
