Don't want to seem nerdy but it's a harrier not an F18

yeah that looked like a harrier

It is a harrier, huge intakes, sloped wings with the wheels on the ends give it away.

Darn close flyover.. better have a spare set of underwear handy.

*timeshift

Adding video to channels (Timeshift) - requested by ant.

It's neither Harrier or F/A-18 Hornet. It's French Mirage F-1.

It's not a Harrier because there is single drop tank in the middle. Harrier's can't fuel tank in that location because Harriers don't have center pylon. Also, refueling probe is on the wrong side and location.

Harriers also have 3 pylons on each wing (RAF has 4 per wing) This plane only has 1 visible

It's not a Hornet, because Hornets have twin vertical stabilizer.

^you know what? I believe him.

Wow, he didn't flinch!

Whatever it was, it was going at an insanely fast speed a few feet from his head! Wow.

*quality because I nearly crapped my pants watching that.

Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Tymbrwulf.

I think that rather than a demonstration of the low-altitude capabilities of the Harrier (we all know if can fly really low), I think this video is intended to demonstrate the specific gravity and volume of this Royal Marine's bollocks. And it does that. Rather well.

I like it. But I don't think it fits TIMESHIFT, because it is neither time lapsed or slow motion. I was waiting for the repeats to show the plane going slower.

Props to ipfreely for nailing that one. I would have mistakenly called it a Harrier, too, but he's right.

Damn, that B-52 fighter jet sure was flying low!
