Chicago Air and Water Show Blue Angels Surprise!

Chicago Air and Water Show Blue Angels from Belmont Harbor! Enjoy!

[@Mistaking03]

I just happen to live down the road from pensacola NAS. The blues buzz my house all the time. Never gets old.

[@matthewwindisch9449]

That sound never gets old...

[@RSTI191]

And it never will...

[@KC-fb8ql]

Right on

[@blizzard602]

Went to an air show as a young kid and I’ll never forget the solo coming in from behind. By the time you hear the sound and realize what’s happened he’s already in another zip code

[@TheCarter3213]

Lol…. Another zip code

[@bobbillings]

lmao another zip code. good analogy. going to borrow that one.

[@iiaquatiq]

Just went to a Blue Angels show yesterday, knowing that there was gonna be a sneak pass at some point. Unfortunately, It happened just when I was trying to get up to fix my chair, sucker flew right over me and almost gave me a heart attack.

[@BonesAv]

@Nuckis now they do the change over roll instead.

[@guybeingaguy]

I was in desert shield. We were taught to always count planes. Common tactic is to fly a formation of 5,6,7 in plain sight out of reach for recon, make a loop back, but 2 are missing and those 2 are the ones that kill ‘ya.

[@jimmychappell7039]

they get people every time with that one

[@Brucev7]

I was at an Air Show and a 'Fighting Falcon Thunderbird' did that. lol

[@SomeBuddy777]

Got me three times! 😱 I was like, "Geebees! Where did that come from?" each time!

[@sawatisbillings8759]

You can hear that lady say: 'I think I just peed myself' chuckle

[@allamericanwiseass2794]

Never lose track of the solos

[@tankurfacejr]

"Alright, nice and slow guys-" "READY OR NOT HERE I COME" "DAMMIT CARL"

[@Dodo-in3ie]

0:52 the bird 😂😂

[@Pinkielover]

Could've ended really bad for the jet

[@garypulliam3740]

That bird died.

[@grmreaper1414]

that was right over head I am surprised they did that. That is one of my favorite parts of the performance, the sneak attack they do. just all around great performance from the Blue Angels, the Thunderbirds, just damn proud to be an American!

[@FranklinBurns42]

👍

[@MichaelSmith-dg1fb]

Went to the air show at McGuire AFB few years back. Awesome display. Spent 7 yrs in the Marines, it never gets old. Never. Two tours at MCAS El Toro, 3rd MAW. Gotta love those F4’s too

[@datcreekdatcreekboy8385]

I salute you thanks for your service this was an awesome video

[@skymedic48]

Maverick, never ever leave your wingman!!

[@jeffwardlow4626]

Yes!!!! That bird really help set that up! I bet they were shaking for a while! I love that power! Hahaha

[@michaelmccormick3830]

I took my son to the Chicagi Air Show in about 1984-85. We saw a B-52 and fighters. He is now designing aircraft for Boeing. The show impressed him.

[@stevesloan7132]

The Blue Angels are just the best! I saw them and this trick at Austin-Straubel Airfield when I was a boy. Great gimmick. The one plane flying close to the ground is beating the speed of sound so you don't even know it is there until it is right over head on the way past. The pilots in the sky are a beautiful distraction during that moment. Awesome! America's heros. Knights of the air.

[@MisterLongShot_Official]

They're not allowed to break the sound barrier usually, so they'll be around 700mph during the sneak pass. That's why there's no Sonic Boom, just a lot of decibels all of a sudden.

[@andgate2000]

In a conflict you wouldn't know it hit you.

[@grumpyoldgraymetalhead2441]

andgate2000 Exactly! That sucker would be on its way home in the meantime

[@patrickkelly5009]

In a "conflict" you wouldn't even hear it. It's referred to as a silent killer.

[@TheQman69]

About 10 years ago, I lived on Nellis AFB and could watch the Thunderbirds from my yard. All year long they would practice their show routine sometimes twice a day during air sho season. I had people tell me it would get old hearing that noise after a few months ... no way, it was still an awesome sight even the day we left after being there 4 years.

[@twmijjit]

I'm pretty sure that bird had pooped his pants.

[@JayJMEScotty]

Tou Wan Moua pretty sure the guy filming did to.

[@horizonaviation2279]

+Tou Wan Moua bIrds do in fact wear pant;) lol good pass

[@crystalclearflight6177]

Tou Moua I feel bad for the bird 😝

[@1BassJohn]

If the bird was ingested, it doesn't spell immediate disaster.. basically the pilot would lose one of his engines at worst.. and continues flying.

[@granteilers]

John Lebesis single engine loss isn’t that bad in an f18.

[@lightfoot413]

love it in slo-mo.........Blue Angels trademark...GO NAVY!!

[@crystalclearflight6177]

Never trust the diamond

[@April-tm7uv]

Those pilots are very special people

[@ronmendoza1274]

Blue Angels Airshows never will get old.

[@therealRustyShackleford]

Went to my first airshow about 25 years ago and will never forget the sneak attack. The rest of the show I was looking for the solo plane and what he was doing.

[@ryanlee6147]

That's awesome, even that bird was like "holy s*** what was that"

[@TJSTrains]

0:53 Bird: Hmm this is a nice day Blue Angle: Flys Bye Bird: Holy crap! I almost just got obliterated!

[@santafemiket]

I knew it was coming and my heart was stopped for a moment!

[@PhuckYourComment]

One of the coolest things in the world to experience

[@debbylou5729]

Chicago used to be the best place ever, the restaurants, shops and museums….no garbage in the streets. I could never figure out why anyone would want to go to NYC. And yes, I’ve been to both. Went into NYC often as we lived in Connecticut. That was the 80’s and in the 90’s Lived just outside of Chicago. We went there more often than we did NYC. It was far better

[@mreid08]

I've learned that you look for the one you can't see

[@gregory46236]

That was the best sneak pass i have ever seen. I have been to airshows in Chicago in the past and Indy. Excellent shot. PS. I would of pissed my pants also!

[@DallasSniper]

That's what you call a Sneak Pass!!!

[@CENTEXRailProductions]

This has got to be the best reaction to the surprise pass!

[@pascal.mueller]

Might be this one as well ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaO8noJ7q6l4i6c

[@HeftyAXE]

Blue Angel #5 is cleared down to 50 feet for the sneak pass, so it was right around 50 feet from the deck.

[@lawrencespies8674]

Right and at 700 mph too!

[@HeftyAXE]

@@cha-ka8671 I've seen them at less than 50ft for 5s sneak at the homecoming show. Check with the Fighter Pilot Podcast interview about the making of the new Top Gun, because a former Blues' solo, Walleye, did all the low level flying for the movie.

[@kebo57]

They love doing that sneak pass. I bet the pilot was grinning from ear to ear as he flew over the crowd.

[@dietpepsivanilla3095]

The moment people realize they could be dead now (if they were the enemy).

[@skymedic48]

Holy baby jeebus, i dropped my phone. Daaaaaaamn that was awesome!!

[@liciousvicious]

That was very close to being a bird strike.

[@patriotsfan1236]

liciousvicious it's a visual illusion that bird is only 30 feet off the ground where the f18 is at least 85 to 100 ft

[@patriotsfan1236]

if it was close enough that bird would have p been hit by jet blast and most likely killed

[@garypulliam3740]

That bird died.

[@garypulliam3740]

@@patriotsfan1236 Yes. The bird was killed.

[@raulnovoa6098]

This could have turned. Ugly. Thank goodness the timing was off

[@Grateful2Exist]

I got sneak attacked this weekend at the California Capital Air Show, it was so great!!

[@Birdmouse77]

Was absolutely awesome!

[@nancychace8619]

The first time I saw the Blue Angels was probably in the late 50s at Moffett Field. Been a fan ever since.

[@RumCaptain]

Oh my lord, I miss Moffett Field. My dad used to take me all the time there. The best air show I ever saw there was when the Thunder Birds and the Blue Angels were there at the same time. The Thunder Birds went first. There usually was always an F-14 as well.

[@nancychace8619]

@@RumCaptain Way back before "Silicon Valley" existed, my family had a tomato ranch under final approach to Moffett. As a girl, I used to sit on horseback and watch the jets come in. All gone now.

[@Leekburg]

By the way, this was shot from the north breakwall of Diversey Harbor, not Belmont Harbor. You can see in the video that this is from the very north boundary of the water security area. From where I was, it looked like the plane cleared the height of the trees out there maybe 10 or 15 feet. I'm not exaggerating. Great video!

[@santafemiket]

Best sneak attack yet!

[@user-nv8pq7zr8q]

Just makes me so proud to be an American!

[@giovannimazzolin5585]

[@dbzfanatic9913]

That solo fighter is deadly

[@R7300]

That bird at :54 almost ended the show lol

[@user-qv6bs2td9o]

They use to say, you have just been shown the art of tactical surprise!

[@johnbeals8420]

The vertical 'Corkscrew' reminded me of a time I saw a 'double' in 'Nam'!

[@bindig1]

Gets em every time. LOL

[@MrBen527]

Wow! Great vid man!!

[@sawatisbillings8759]

Love the sneak pass!!!

[@ridhajaouadi351]

USA is a great nation. ( police officer from tunisia).

That is what is meant by "Air Superiority". You can't hear us coming until we pass. By then........

[@scottward7813]

If you can say "what was that?" You're still alive!

[@randomvintagefilm273]

00:51 that is the best because everyone was looking at the 4 angels and then... bammo!!!

holy shit!! that even scared me!

Harharhar scared the crap out of me the first time too! Out at NAS Miramar back in the day.

[@richardbrown3061]

Saw the Blue Angels at the Peoria, IL air show several years ago. They had a practice day where they flew over my house just above the trees and I could almost read the name of the pilot on the aircraft.

[@jimmychappell]

That poor bird was like “FFFFUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKK!!!!!!!”

[@patrickr6553]

The bird is in therapy now.

[@garypulliam3740]

The bird is dead.

Now that's a sneak pass well done

That was epic. Please come to the UK and do that.

Sensacional que barulho lindo.✈️👏🎉🎈🇧🇷

[@KenKellySWFL]

Best sneak pass ever!

[@raydizon]

Just happy the solo pilot didn't have a bird strike!

[@Sammyguy135]

Are those the sound of the vortices after he passed by? Sounds a lot like other jets but all of 'em are shown.

[@GCAT01Living]

They're like deer. Always have to keep an eye out for that last one.

[@derwinjax]

I think the bird pooped too! Lol

[@enriquee5504]

I almost frickin dropped my phone I Didn't know whether to wipe my #=$@ Or grab my phone when it fell LMAO 🤣 SUPERIOR SOUND QUALITY

[@lesielottayenny5480]

Now thats a sneak pass

[@carlosruizesparzadiazcontr1259]

You can hear it coming cus hes going faster thsn sound! So cool

[@alvarordr]

They can't go supersonic at that altitude, if he went faster than sound, they would be deaf

[@garypulliam3740]

No. About 500 mph here.

[@basedmanaf8100]

That one jet scared the sheit outta these women

[@baseballforlife3324]

That is so cool

[@simplyexisting1125]

When you see four blue angels flying alone get ready for your ears to let you know why. 5 and 6 love to sneak up on you full afterburner.

I have motion sickness now!

One thing about the Angels, when 5 leave and only 4 come back.....expect it.

[@stephenbillings]

You can see why in the new Maverick film, they used Blue Angles pilots for the low level stuff.

[@jvee2901]

Never saw the Blue Angels, saw the Thunderbirds 3 times.

[@texasag6297]

That one was super low...all the ones I've been to they were at least a 300-400 feet or more..that would have scared me too. That was right on top of everybody. Killer pass tho.
