OK first thing that comes to mind after that HUGE download and video .....
INCREDIBLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
forget the incredible eye-hand coordination, the amount of time it must have taken to learn that, the NUMBER of helicopters he must have gone through crashing them
This kid must be SMART !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm talking rocket scientist smart !
Can you imagine how quickly he must process the upside down, backward, reverse thinking and reaction he must do to be able to do that ?!?!?!
WOW !
I want that guy on my team !
Hope he's using that brain power for the common good !

hahahahahahahaha.......that is hilarious!!!!! I thought it was real until I saw the chopper move left upside down, then stop in mid air and proceed belly up. Fun to watch, but I'd bet a tall frosty one that that is not possible. I've flown RC Planes and seen some very good RC pilots do some amazing stunts, but there's no way this is real. Someone had to spend many many hours to make this video. They even put the smoke trails on the chopper as it moves through most of the screen shots.

I wonder ? ... it SURE looks real... or most of it... have to check www.snopes.com...
The rc helo probably has adjustable trim blades with more movement than a real chopper.... so that would explain the inverted bit...
but hey, if it's fake - more power to them - they have ANOTHER talent - Holly WOOD

I thought it was fake too. But I did a search on "Alan Szabo, Jr. Raptor 60". That's the name that appeared in the video. Turns out this a whole sport and he's not even the best. Granted he's one of the top few but apparently there are some older guys even better.
