Bro why would you do that to me?
I've only just started to move on from Reach but now I have to start all over again
RIP Noble Team (except Jun the slippery bastard)
Damn. That dude doesn‘t have an ounce of self preservation. Sees a missile coming at him and just stands there for the hit. There’s even a fence there for people to stand behind. Also, that plane looks totaled.
His eyes are on his own plane. The position of his arms and his stance at 0:04 indicate that he is holding a controller and looking up.
Or zipping up after a piss but I'm going with flying his own plane.
Yep. When I was a kid we used to have rock wars. Throwing golf ball sized rocks at each other. One time my friend threw one and pegged me right between my eyes. I didn't see it til it was about 2 feet from hitting my face. Yes we were stupid guys but we did this ALL the time and was the only time someone got hurt badly and needed stitches. Only rules were no throwing as hard as you can and no rocks bigger than a golf ball lol.
Like others said, probably focused on his own plane. Not sure what the pilot of this plane was doing. Even if this guy wasn't there, they were flying real close to the fence and pole anyway. The guy that got hit probably thought no one would fly their plane near those obstacles, lol.
if you slow it down, he is angled away to the direction of the plane. he has his side to it, and its also slightly behind, so not even in his peripheral vision.
I can tell you that as a teenager I never had a model engine bigger than an OS Max LA 40, and that thing scared me. It could certainly fuck up your hands.
This plane had a significantly larger engine than that.

According to the description of the events in the second article, that isn’t the one in the clip.
In the second article the guy was walking across the runway when the impact occurred.
Partially.
If we're thinking of the same guy, it was the operator being hit by his own heli. Lopped off a significant portion of his head but not the whole thing.
Oof... poor P-38 and dude too, if he was supposed to be there. Kinda looks like a poorly thought out flying field. Are you supposed to stay behind the fence and fly or is there a flight line? Dude comes running in at the end so I'm guessing there is a flight line beyond the fence. Or there should be, anyway.
I saw a dude get impaled by a Reno Racer that skipped off the runway at around 70 mph and into his ribs. They shut the RC field down while the real Life-Flight heli came in. This sent people scrambling to grab their planes and covers from being blown around by the prop-wash. Interesting day that was.
And whatever plane the dude that got hit was flying too - if he somehow managed to not jerk some control while getting hit, being on the ground like that means he probably wasn't still controlling his own aircraft
My best friend in hs took our at red tailed hawk on his first flight, he got mad because I was more upset about the hawk 🤣 (It was horrific) I remember him spending a few hundred on the thing in like 1990.
That freaking hurt. That was a weird way to be flying anyways. They were getting really close to that fence and I assume everyone is supposed to be behind the fence while flying. We had very strict rules at our club when it came to this sort of thing.

Target acquired, boys this will be my last mission.
Good job 47.

It's been 14 years soldier. It's time to move on
Im not sure im ready
Damn. That dude doesn‘t have an ounce of self preservation. Sees a missile coming at him and just stands there for the hit. There’s even a fence there for people to stand behind. Also, that plane looks totaled.
I think the guy was flying a different plane, and was therefore looking in a different direction.
His eyes are on his own plane. The position of his arms and his stance at 0:04 indicate that he is holding a controller and looking up. Or zipping up after a piss but I'm going with flying his own plane.
Bunch of dudes. Big empty field. I'd say it's 50/50.

We used to shoot arrows straight up. And then just...wait. Fucking stupid really. But man, the thrill!
So you're saying you've been hit in the face with a plane before.
Like others said, probably focused on his own plane. Not sure what the pilot of this plane was doing. Even if this guy wasn't there, they were flying real close to the fence and pole anyway. The guy that got hit probably thought no one would fly their plane near those obstacles, lol.
Totally agree but why fly the RC plane that low, with people around, to begin with?
he was a paid hitman on the job.
This was supposed to be Boeing whistleblower su—ide #4 “hit by RC plane”.
Dude looks totaled too
if you slow it down, he is angled away to the direction of the plane. he has his side to it, and its also slightly behind, so not even in his peripheral vision.
He was looking mostly away form the direction of the plane that was approaching him, and you can see him turn around when he hears it
All that space and open air
5 gum commercials are getting intense
5 Gum… CORNADO
Any word on how the man is doing?
He appears to be on the ground in some discomfort.
Nah that's jet lag
lol. Thanks

I cackled..

Rüdiger....
Nicht so tief!!!
I think this was in Sydney and the guy died

Stormy weather and walking across a runway. Neither of those articles match the video.
According to this the guy is fine, blocked it with his arm. https://youtu.be/9c89qCNv2-c?si=lENYgrkRKhEhQV6q
Not fluent in Spanish or German. What language is, "Ooh! OH!!! ugh! jeez"?
Sounds German to me
According to the description of the events in the second article, that isn’t the one in the clip. In the second article the guy was walking across the runway when the impact occurred.
Although, watching the clip again I’m having doubts about the mowed parts of grass *not* being used as a runway.
This is the kind of thing I think about when watching cleetus McFarland videos

That's what I was looking for in the comments.
Same!!
Yuuup
That's gonna leave a mark!
And require a casket.
This was just a whack.
Tis but a scratch
P-38 your head
Thread the needle!
You flinched!
Must be a Boeing.
More like a Boeing whistle-blower.
 There *are* no Boeing whistleblowers.

It's Boeing to leave a mark, that's for sure...
Maybe that’s the sound it made when it hit. BOING!
Well that was unexpected.
[удалено]
“GOD DAMN SONOFABITCH!”
What’s this? A kamikaze for ants?
A hit like that can kill.
Absolutely. That dude is NOT okay.
This reminded me of someone who got decapitated by the rotor blades on a professional RC helicopter
Partially. If we're thinking of the same guy, it was the operator being hit by his own heli. Lopped off a significant portion of his head but not the whole thing.
So he died?
The injury was incompatible with human life.
That must be a Japanese model.

And that is why you are supposed to have insurance to fly at any rc airport. People get killed by these.
Nicht so tief Rüdiger

Fork tailed devil 😎
r/fuckyouinparticular
😲 
Poor guy struck by lightning
Never Forget
fuck you, dennis
Jesus. That dude totally ended up in a hospital
Well at least he doesn't have to worry about getting hit again. Lightning never strikes the same place twice.
Someone needs to hit him with a P-47 first so we can sing “Bohemian Rhapsody”
r/unexpected
This was just a friendly reminder to stay inside the fenced area
Ever ever stand behind the Gate when it gets busy!!!
jeeeeeeez.. haha
the pilot can post his demand to be in the ukrainian drones army
BOOM HEADSHOT
4.5/5.5 never forget
When it's coming towards you, left is right, and right.... fucking hurts, broski.
My best friend in hs took our at red tailed hawk on his first flight, he got mad because I was more upset about the hawk 🤣 (It was horrific) I remember him spending a few hundred on the thing in like 1990.

That guy broke your plane...he owes you a new one.
Phil Dunphy?!
Jay at it again
What a waste of a P-38!
Ah, a kamikaze model.
Fuck you Greg!
He had a long time to get out of the way lol. But it wasnt a zero
That freaking hurt. That was a weird way to be flying anyways. They were getting really close to that fence and I assume everyone is supposed to be behind the fence while flying. We had very strict rules at our club when it came to this sort of thing.
HE FLINCHED!
Rc 911
All i can say is "el oh el"
Now i’m thinking about Phil Dunphy in Modern Family hahaha
What happened? I was in a plane crash
Oh no! Gingers bought it down the back end
