This really got me thinking. The particular cadence of his articulation has more or less become the standard for these style of videos. Who was the first to do this? I can't quite remember when it started, but it was within the last five or ten years.

I've heard it said that the particular inflection used by pilots and half-duplex radio communication in general, at least in America, originated with Chuck Yeager. I'd like to know who started this for Youtube. It *can* be effective, but increasingly it isn't and just annoying. The editing and camera work definitely ties in as well.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Conan O'Brien is about to go all Chuck Yeager on late night television.

Chuck Yeager was on this commission. When he heard the evidence he said, "Shucks, just don't launch when it's cold" and quit the commission.

Your video, Chuck Yeager breaks the sound barrier, has made it into your personal Highest Rated Videos listing. Congratulations on a job well done. For you contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Tex Johnson is one of my idols as a pilot.

Definitely up there with Bob Hoover, Chuck Yeager, Scott Crossfield, etc.

The Chuck Yeager X-1 and the parachutes are really cool.
