Nov 21, 2008 - I must ask the poster of this video whats so "insane" about this takeoff. Their was nothing I saw that made me go "oh shit!" so what exactly was it that made this so "insane"?

isokessu Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - it's not insane it just takes more speed. but it looks cool

turvyc12 Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - a more proper title would be "routine take-off"

koirakolme Says:

Nov 21, 2008 - I think you will find that it is to do with the length of the runway, I think this was filmed at Bournemouth in the UK, an airfield that does not normally handle planes as large as the 747.

SpikesVampireGirl Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - This isn't insane take off. This is how big planes have to take off because they are heavy, I found that out at college as I am studying travel and tourism.

josef9300 Says:

Nov 22, 2008 - everyone is complaining about this takeoff not being "insane".. well look how close the plane is to the end of the runway when it finally lifts off. i don't know how many of you are pilots, but as one I wouldn't want to take off cutting it that close.
