I saw this performance in live in Bournemouth and it was 24 minutes of skill and bravery. It made me very proud to be British. To hear about the tragedy of what happened on the Saturday really shook me as I'd heard the commentator guy talk about "Eggman". RIP Red 4.

[@cooloneproductions]

We should be very proud of our RAF and their display team. EVERYWHERE they go they turn heads and are held in high regard in pilot circles. This truly is something British to be proud of.

[@iiTzEpicFails]

deepest sympathy, for you and all your family John, R.I.P, thank you for all the hour's of enjoyment you have brought everyone in your stupendous flight and amazing spectacles that you bring. R.I.P, Red 4.

[@jackdavidharris]

Such an elegant and spectacular display! Such a shame the display ended with a loss. RIP Flt Lt Jon Egging - you will not be forgotten.

[@DJSyKoh]

THE most talented pilots in the world!! The red arrows are always the top attraction at any airshow, closely followed by the Harrier jump jet, RIP to both Jon Egging and the harrier

[@mickmurphy100]

Thanks for posting this. I, like thousands of other people watched the Red Arrows open the Volvo Boat Race in Galway, Ireland in '09 and they were magnificent right across Galway Bay as always. Prayers are with Jon and his family and friends.

[@stusixtyone]

thank you for the hours fo enjoyment given to thousands all over the world. R.I.P. JON

[@monarchist100]

My condolences go to the family, friends and collegues of Flight Lietenant Jon Egging. The red Arrows are greatly symbolic to the British people, and he died to save others on the ground below, and that is a display of selflessness that we should all look up to. He made us proud and the MOD owe it to him to make sure that it does not happen again. R.I.P Jon, you did a grand job.

[@Welsh_Girl_UK]

John Egging, you sacrificed yourself for others not to be hurt and that makes you a true hero and selfless gentleman in my books, you have done your family proud in everything you have achieved in your short but wonderful life.. R.I.P John go fly with the Angels now. xx

[@coltsuperocean10]

....that is simply breathtaking! Huge respect to the RAF,and deepest sympathies to Flight Lieutenant Egging, he died a hero!

[@TheSoundzUK]

Best in the world.No sonar like the yanks in their blue angels no electronics keeping them up there,just human eyes and pure skill. RIP

[@davenport151]

[@mrwideboy]

I must pat tribute to jon for pushing the boundarys in excellence and flying skills. I am a pilot and would have loved to fly in the red arrows.

[@MrBabs12345]

I was there and it was just...... spectacular. Horrified to hear of one of the pilots death. Condolences to the family. R.I.P

[@thedevilscompanion1]

So sad what happened yday.I have seen the Arrows on many occaissions and they will always be the best ever.It looks like the hawk aircraft may have malfunctioned and Fl Lt Egging bravely guided the aircraft away from potentially more distruction.My sympathies go out to FL Egging,his family and the team.

[@MarkAviation]

Ever since i found out that my dad ( who i have never seen ) sacraficed himself in war to his dear friend, i have shown every intrest in the army and RAF! When something like this happens, i just sit and think of all those brave people out there fight for our saftey! R.I.P Jon and his family! R.I.P dad! :(

[@tnorman1987]

Bloody Fantastic!

[@EW215]

@ShallowBeThyGames I totally agree with you , you could not have put it better! A very sad hit for the Red Arrows and I bow my head in condolence.

[@BruckLeee]

Wow that looks awesome

[@madgirl132]

Truly fantastic planes! R.I.P Flight Lieutenant Jon Egging - true hero!

[@Blasphemingisfunkids]

@slothgoonies Thanks for sharing that bro, it was very nice and honestly struck a cord in my heart :)

[@kwikkwak77]

watching these pilots makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck.superb.RIP Flight Lieutenant Jon Egging.

[@iInTerPreTeR]

who the fuck disliked this? respect, a RIP from the ATC,

[@smash8205]

R.I.P LT JON EGGING U R A TRUE HERO MAY GOD REST YOUR SOUL

[@manychefsbroth]

@cooloneproductions Couldn't agree more. Well said.

[@zDrizzyz]

@slothgoonies there examining the plane today arent they, and there going to say what caused the crash, because it could have been engine failure or bird strike? and i really want to find out how he couldnt eject

[@MarkMaddyGriff]

from 3.03 to 3.22 Flt Lt Jon Egging is at the Botton of the Formation in the ill Fated T1 Hawk on the Leader's Left Wing. RIP

[@R33Racer]

To think Eggman was flying just over a week ago in Lowestoft, even the tannoy made a mention about the guy for a bit. RIP mate.

[@THEMATTBUXTON]

At least he died doing what he loved. R.I.P

[@KelanX]

@oli696969 yes, But RWJ is the person who advertised them

[@Waggie97]

bless him at least he died doing what he loved best

[@jspesh]

Anyone who flies these things is brave as fuck. RIP

[@kazzerkins]

RIP. X

[@davidocall]

@TradPK No, the fact that it's an 'instinct' would mean it would be self preservation. Such as ejecting or trying to stay up instead of pull away and loosing altitude in the process.

[@rogerleggett1295]

A wonderful dah

[@Jacksterblud]

Its weird... Everyone sort of assumes that because these people are in the red arrows, they're immortal and then something like this happens and its a wake up call. rest in peace.

[@ayweelz]

RIP Red 4 Jon Egging.

[@panos11995]

TRUE HERO R.I.P

[@kamzz95]

R.I.P

[@Goproflying]

@slothgoonies I agree that what happened was tragic, however, if he had full control of the aircraft to enable him to steer away from houses, then why didn't he just fly back to the airport? He was easily doing 350-400kts, he had plently of opportunity and speed. My guess guess is a) he didn't steer it away from the houses, he didn't have a choice through a control lock issue, OR a medical complaint rendered him unable to fly and eject.

[@RaheemD]

Which one crashed? :S and my friend literally lived up the road from this. Apparently, the pilot avoided all of these houses which then didn't give him enough ttime to eject his seem meaning he died when he hit the water

[@DoriDori08]

R.I.P Eggy!!

[@WereGlidingWithStyle]

How the hell do they organise and practice this?

[@jrobertsoneff]

I suppose their is a good reason why an ejector seat was not used ?

[@PaPaJiMbO1983]

@jrobertsoneff Yes because he manouvered his plane from a heavily populated area and brought it down in a field.There most likely wasnt enough time to use the ejector seat.

[@TradPK]

@davidocall I don't think I said 'Survival' instinct?

[@TheGreatAwesomeness1]

@Neutrinoghost Just because he was able to avoid the houses doesn't mean that he could just "fly back to the airport." You dont need full controll of the aircraft to be able to avoid houses, if he had full control of the aircraft, which he clearly didnt, then he would never have crashed.

[@MrSpeedDemon666]

RAF are the best in the world

[@hekkta]

Maaaad skills

[@ShallowBeThyGames]

I'm surprised how many comments know the pilot's intentions and all the intricacies of the incident. I guess interneters can work these things out far faster than inquiries the RAF conduct. I suppose the RAF can lift their grounding now eh? But, a serious nod to these pilots and their awesome talent. I doubt there's any other aerobatics team in the world, who are held is as high regard as the RAF's Red Arrows.

[@chrisho5177]

RIP Red 4

[@Aviation94]

rip jon egging

[@FinLikesToDrum]

@slothgoonies Well said

[@copperkipper1]

@CBONGaming ?

[@KelanX]

@oli696969 no shit. But RWJ is the person who came up with "trolls are people who dislike anything"...

[@RichieSpeed]

RIP to the pilot :( Does anybody know what actually caused the crash? Why didn't he eject? So sad...

[@bullseatpizza]

@HsumFX Sorry, but could you do what he could? In actual fact it was believed to be a Bird strik and with high G forces he was unable to eject!.

[@sallieann7]

Shame he died so young saving other ppl as well wat a hero

[@stokeyjones1]

He sacraviced hiself to save the people in the town, because if he ejected staight away the plane would of probably crashed into a building and killed more people so he crashed into a feild so he saved others not sure what caused it, R.I.P to the pilot

[@pengoy]

Shame about the crash!!! :( !

[@manychefsbroth]

@Shaunayannoe123 Good man - we have a lot to be proud for :-)

[@Dot-Steve]

@RaheemdaplayaO4 he crashed near to the airfield they were based... he managed to turn away from the homes... and he landed in a field nearby :(

[@RGBeanie]

These guys clearly have the most brass balls of anyone on the planet! Oh and CHEMTRAILS lol, only joking this is harmless smokey smoke :)

[@airjaff]

badasses

[@MatMo.]

@KelanX 19

[@MrBushWookiee]

@johnnyjod Steered the plane away from houses and I imagine he wanted to make sure the plane didn't hit anyone. That pilot is a hero, no matter what caused the plane to crash, it could have been a lot worse if it hadn't been for his actions.

[@Shaunayannoe123]

this type of vid really makes ya proud to be british in my eyes ya like sas number 1! up the brits

[@ismabera]

sad news

[@TheBlankmediams]

R.IP Flight Lieutenant Jon Egging.

[@davidocall]

@TradPK That's a concious choice, not a survival instinct.

[@doncini3000]

@BrotherYounis Successful troll is successful. Well played, sir.

[@GaberaStraight]

@MrMadness97 a load of crap, he didn't know he was going to crash until the pinnacle of the feeling!

[@teevanator]

@BDFPA He knew he was going to die but he managed to steer away from the houses and made sure he was the only casualty. Pretty selfless in your final moments to be thinking about saving other people, wouldn't you say?

[@MatMo.]

@KelanX 4chan

[@MrCommonlane]

i think john was a very brave man because i think that when the plan was going down he had a choice to eject or to stear away from the crowed and kill him self and not inocent people on the ground god bless john and al of are hearts go out to johns famliy and freinds

[@iiTzEpicFails]

@KelanX one i am not an RWJ fanboy and 2 and two, that's what troll's do, they send comment's like that, a guy has tragically passed away, and your saying a video is pointless i reckon you are the one not wanted here.

[@basslines4x4]

am suprised the title isnt ''UFO spotted in Bournemouth''

[@copperkipper1]

@CBONGaming nope.

[@ryanlfc91]

my grandad fueled his plane, so far it seems the plane had a mechanical fault as when the plane hit the ground it didn't explode which is strange and also they were only supposed to do 2 fly passes but they decided to do a 3rd and his aircraft may of ran out of fuel.

[@KelanX]

@oli696969 /facepalm... yes he did... Who did invent the idea that trolls were people who dislike things are trolls then?

[@freethinker424]

i use to go to a red arrow show, but then i took an arrow to the knee.

[@MatMo.]

@KelanX RWJ didnt invent trolls lol

[@TradPK]

@slothgoonies Umm... I'm not hating, and no disrespect intended, but if you're flying an aircraft which is about to crash and still has the ability to be controlled properly by the user, would your first instinct not be, 'I need to stop this aircraft from killing other people'... Yes it is a selfless act but one which comes naturally to a human being

[@manychefsbroth]

@BrotherYounis This is not the place for spreading religious hatred. Please at least research before posting mindless comments. Flt Lt Jon Egging proudly supported coalition ground forces when flying operational missions in Afghanistan as well as taking part in exercises in the United Kingdom and America. As part of Joint Force Harrier, Jon served with IV(AC) Squadron on HMS Illustrious, flying training missions off the UK coastline.

[@MediaPiXels]

@theshrews123 what... thats what you came here for

[@TradPK]

@davidocall It is still an instinct none the less. I know if I knew I had no chance of surviving the crash, I would save other human beings, it's just our nature to do so. I could not live with myself if I ejected and killed 10-20 people, it just wouldn't be worth it

[@iiTzEpicFails]

@SweatiestOfSacks you my friend are a troll and do not understand what this video is for and if you think it is 'pointless' then why keep watching and comment?

[@masterbailey123]

dude........ he risked his life to save others..... he could have ejected but the plane would of crashed into the houses so he sterred it out of the way and he didn't have time to eject and i think it was a bird fault.... and he's a hero end of...
