6 guys to hold down the helicopter while the pilot pulls collective and then shouts, "let go" ?

So, How long do you think it took for the ringing in their ears to stop?

 

Can you imagine flying / riding in that thing with no headsets or earplugs.

Hey, what are you worried about? I've seen this done on TV - the six million dollar man held down a UH1 several times, and that was all real, right? No rollover, no crash, and he could hold it down because he was so strong. As soon as I get to be worth $6,000,000.00, I plan to try it.

 

And as soon as I get old enough, I'm going to grow a mustache and get a tattoo.

... I've seen this done on TV - the six million dollar man held down a UH1 several times...

 

Was that the episode where he was keeping the bad guys from getting away, or the one where he was keeping the terrorists from getting away?

 

I vaguely remember that episode. I wonder if they have it on DVD yet?

 

Later

WOW- and all this time I thought the collective kept the damn thing from going up....guess I never looked back at my skids to see who was holding me down ...
