FLYING A HELICOPTER OVER THE VIC FALLS | PILOT BAMBI

[@maxpatana9906]

1:15 That's me😅😅. I've had guests just check in who saw me on this video. Thank you guys so much for the awareness you've brought here. It's truly humbling. I wish you all the best🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@impulseaviation253]

PB. You must be the happiest pilot on KZbin, always a big smile and excited to go on the next adventure, thank you for taking us with you 😊

[@veemuyambo]

Proud of my City Victoria Falls , Max is well Spoken .

[@chumakatzlunika4505]

He's very very well spoken!

[@sithabelamandlawenkosiwodu6298]

Yes, naturally as he's Zimbabwean.

[@ashikihsan1946]

That is so amazing Bambi flying the helicopter over Victoria Falls and your nice bathing in Victoria Falls. I love this place Bambi

[@clickster1883]

The zebra randomly grazing on the side of the road is just cherry on top of everything in this video. So danged cool!

[@pageant1fd]

Thank you PB that was amazing. I’m 70 and spent half a century wanting to be in a helicopter. Then it happened , I was in an accident and taken by Air Ambulance to a large hospital and the doctor spoilt it by giving me anaesthesia 🙄. Mentour pilot interviewed you and your enthusiasm and knowledge shone through . So another subscriber!

[@andrewmcnally5167]

Good day to you Bambi,my name is Andrew and live in the uk,city of York .I came across you’re videos and love them.I visited Zambia a few years ago for 3 month,and loved Victoria falls.I stayed at many small villages in Zambia.Choma was one of the villages.love the video.thank you so much for the memories.xx

[@JuliusCesar2781]

Wow, the devils pools looking a bit scary. What a adventure !

[@rahulmax12]

This is what I DREAM ..... what a flight cutting the canyon !

[@emmanueltafirenyika3613]

Fantastic video made me homesick

[@MultiMarciano]

Amazing film content guys,very good like always..keep going..

[@johng9399]

There is just NO WAY you would get me into that Devils Pool! Mind you, back in about 78/9 I did get to walk down the Eastern Cataract on the Zim side when it was totally dry. Rocks were like glass and slippery! Madness!

[@maxpatana9157]

Beautiful interaction with nature 👍🚁

[@chikondibanda2695]

glad you had a good time in my country 🤣🙂

[@heinrichnijhove2991]

Dat moment bij de edge was super, jammer dat jullie er niet mochten landen. Geniet ze

[@Hermandbl7]

Wow! Your videos keep getting better and more interesting and I look forward to each new one. Always wanted to visit Africa; your travels are likely the closest I will ever get, so thank you!

[@flyboy201010]

On a trip to the area a number of years ago we enjoyed the same spectacular helicopter tour of the falls which was definitely a bucket list accomplishment. We also visited Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa. I would highly recommend this adventure. Thanks for your hard work and perseverance with your videos. Always a joy to watch. Cheers from Canada.

[@TheRealKlinky]

If you're a local (like I am) we absolutely hate the PERPETUAL helicopter flights. I know it's fun & all but geez, there's a flight over the falls every minute & the noise gets EXHAUSTING. We have a petition to limit the flights or at least have some off days...

[@galengrassi4704]

Pilot Bambi, you're life must be terrible😅😅...Mozi's are the best beers, especially out on the Zambezi river!!

[@djwashx]

I really enjoyed this!!!!!!!!!!!

[@peterwakeman9930]

Fun thanks for me able to do a visual reunion with such a magical place

[@basivka5]

Cool trip with cool guys! Good luck!

[@andreluizcabraldesouza140]

Show!!!! Bambi!!!!!!! Happy 2022

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you!! have a lovely holiday!

[@flwi]

Holy sh*t. Swimming right at the edge of the waterfall..? I don't know if I had the guts to do that. 💪

[@jackstem475]

Made my day to see your smiling face!!

[@peterwakeman9930]

Had a challenging conversation with 2 ladies who what the short flight in a single engine helicopter because they thought it was safer to do a shorter flight. I managed to convince them it was safer to go in a twin engine helicopter for double the time so 5 or 6 of us could all travel together. Well worth the longer flight

[@jimsandoval7633]

Lots of editing, lots of cameras, lots of time invested. You make it so fun to watch and so interesting. What a beautiful place to visit.

[@douglasshaw8754]

Amazing loved it keep it coming cheers Doug Manchester uk

[@phinalp]

Putting camers behind and below the copter was a great idea, those shots were incredible. Are those goPros orrr... i'd be afraid they'd fall off easily with all the downwash and slipstream

[@mrfantastic407]

This is the helicopter I hope to fly for a living after I'm through being a CFI. Great video.

[@shootingsportstransparency7461]

Interesting flight envelope you used

[@muhammadyounosraz5698]

Rosita Very intersing and informative video

[@noelbowerman1562]

I'm sure that was fun ,but for me flying in a microlight over the falls ,was something that had me buzzing for days.

[@jbbosselut]

Beautiful EC 130 !!!

[@AMF1]

Love seeing your adventure, hope you have many more in 2022 x

[@brucekendall52]

Fantastic trip,thks for sharing.

Wow cool trip.

[@nua1234]

Happy Christmas Enjoying your videos.

[@johanswart1257]

Pilot Bambi, what has happened to your flight into Mozambiek???

[@prairiedawg792]

Nice 😀 I was lucky enough to do a microlight ride over the falls some while ago, something I doubt I'll ever forget.

[@CyclingMikey]

Eish I saw the Dairy Maid ice cream tricycle and I wanted to stop and buy one!!!

[@DirtyGollum]

Hey Rosita, thank you for the great content you were shareing this year. What an amazing work. You are one of the most amazing content-creators on yt, not because of the flying and the great views out of the cockpit you are shareing with us but because of your sincere and honest joy. Seeing you chasing your dreams is purely amazing. Keep up the great work in 2022. Merry x-mas to you and your loved ones.

[@rickzelke6478]

Merry Christmas and happy holidays 🎊🎉🎊🎉🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁🚁🛫🛫🛫🛫🍾🍾🍾

Merry Xmas from a very cold and moist Zeeland

[@chrisshields1775]

Wow what a trip I was lucky enough to visit Zombabwe in 1990 and we walked along the Victoria Falls on the Zim side. It was epic and your post bought back happy memories. We also had a sunset crusie above the falls. Thanks so much for posting from Devon in the UK, I love your infectious posts!

[@sarahansell5068]

Awesome. Have merry safe Christmas time

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you Sarah!! Have a lovely christmas

[@julfikarjihad7631]

How much cost to drive a coper

[@johannesherrmann5971]

The flight through the canyon reminds me on my tactical flight training, e.g. along the Isar valley in the Bavarian Alps. Only that we were eight or nine helicopters in a row back then. Keep the videos coming, I always enjoy the footage, especially from such exotic locations! 👍

[@DtotheAtotheNtotheI]

Any hints how to watch that training as a civilian?

[@WildlifeObsessed]

Was doing fine till you went to the edge at Devils Pool !! My fear of heights is getting worse.

[@ForFunFlyer]

That's awesome! 🤙🏻

[@ursmuller3704]

Thanks for taking us on this awesome trip to Victoria Falls. Just beautiful the scenery. Happy Holidays!

[@johnburke4485]

Thank you to both of you ! My wife and I are really enjoying your videos ! Merry Xmas and have a good time !

[@PilotBambi]

That’s so wonderful!! Really glad you guys enjoy the videos. Happy holidays!🥰

[@marenc]

Het was een super gave video!! 💜✨❤️

[@PilotBambi]

Dankjewel lieverddd!

[@farkliaci9562]

You are super. 👏👏👏

[@sithabelamandlawenkosiwodu6298]

I understand the Zambian side is flooded with South Africans like the helicopter pilot and South African hotel chains and businesses that saw an opportunity to market the Victoria Falls from the zambian side in the mid 2000s when Zimbabwe was going through economic melt down. Kudos to them. Wondering why Zambians themselves didn't see this opportunity.

[@jackdziuba]

What was the language you spoke while swimming? Where're you from guys?

[@philipgledhill7227]

I bambi hope both of you are well. What a awesome vlog I thought the helicopter blades were going to touch on the low flying.on the water fall any closer and you would of gone down the water fall. Philip would like to wish you a happy Christmas and new year only two sleeps left philip. 🎅🇬🇧👍🇿🇦

[@netherlander3996]

Jesus I'm so sorry you have to go through all this. get well soon. ;-)) Ps I have a new spot on my holiday bucket list thnx

Het werd alleen maar mooier .... ineens een Nederlandse stem ....WOW !

Don't go to bed early tonight. Who will edit the video?

[@49Mack]

Absolutely fabulous, Rosita!! Happy Holidays to all!!

[@PilotBambi]

thank you so much, I hope you have a lovely end of the year!

[@wizardgmb]

Happy Holidays! You wouldn't have found me anywhere near those falls. I grew up 60 miles from Niagara Falls on the US Canada border and heard far too many stories of people being swept over the falls or close to it due to falling in, helicopter crashes, boats with failed motors or jumping. Then again Niagara Falls has 100x as much water flowing over it as Victoria Falls and current to match! You are a better woman than I Gunga Dot! Keep up the great videos and above all STAY SAFE! 🚁❤️😷

[@harryzulu138]

i am a new subcriber and i love your videos

[@philwhipple4557]

Merry Christmas Bambi, Christmas Hugs

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you Phil!! Same to you! 🎄

[@grahamluppnow2910]

Excellent video! Many bucket list items ticked off right there! 👍

[@lamintouray7386]

That helicopter ride in the canyon was insane. Felt like I was playing a video game - only with real lives.

[@PilotBambi]

That's exactly how it felt for us too!!! So incredible. Major respect for that level of skill from the pilot!

[@alexanderbogander2671]

Did Maurice not have shoulder straps in the helicopter? I read an accident report last week, which said that the main reason the pilot suffered fatal injuries (in a cessna) was because of the secondary impact (the pilot hitting the control panel). The accident report noted that he was not wearing his shoulder straps, and that if he had been wearing them, he would probably still be alive... Just a word of warning!!

[@alexanderbogander2671]

and good video as always aha!

[@mtnvalley9298]

I did that. Very cool.

[@brycejeannotte7699]

Amazing camera views through the gorge. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

[@PilotBambi]

Happy holidays!!!glad you enjoyed the vlog!

[@niltonalexandredasilva7841]

É do BRASIL PARABÉNS pelo vídeo vc é muito LINDA

[@glenninn]

Flying at that low altitude over the water, and at 50KIAS? it looks like you *have* to stay below 25 AGL to be in safe limits according the height-velocity curve

[@Johan-ex5yj]

What a great adventure! Merry Christmas and a Fantastic 2022 to you and your families, Rosita & Maurits. 🎄🥳

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you so much Johan!! All the best and Happy holidays! 🎄

[@TheRokko66]

would be cooler in a chopper over the mekong

[@genemiller4953]

I got the feeling that somewhere on that flight the phrase….”hold my beer” was uttered.

[@SA-so7jah]

Якщо буде можливість, будь ласка, зробіть огляд на Pipistrel virus, дуже цікавий літак.

[@binandapayeng503]

Nice

[@mavusane]

This episode took forever to come out 😄. Enjoyed it

[@CyclingMikey]

Uri bo Mr Ncube?

[@Mozartandpink]

I enjoy your content super interesting and you seem like a professional and safe pilot (speaking as a non-pilot). One little thing from this video - at around 2:00 - if you don't keep your mask over your nose there really is no point wearing one. Keep up the great content though!

[@PilotBambi]

You are totally right! I could feel it slipping down a bit, but didn't realise it was that low on my nose already. Need to be more careful though. Luckily I had just done a covid test and it came back negative :) . Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@snowbeach7]

Missed d live :). Merry xmas bambi & to ur family. All d best 🎅🌲☃️

Thank you Rosita for your content this year. It has been amazing to see what you have done and achieved so far. Happy holidays from the UK

Thank you so much!! really happy you enjoyed the videos so far. means alot to me!! Cant wait to share more adventures next year. Happy holidays!

So awesome, took the same flight with them in 2018! So special!

Fantastic!! Do you remember who the pilot was back then? 😄

I do not, it was in 9J-OAH on November 26th, 2018

Hey Bambi Amazing helicopter 🚁 ride Amazing content , amazing food and Amazing love birds … I am addicted to your tube channel Once more thanks 🙏 for visiting my country Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 Love from Canada 🇨🇦

Hi Rosita, a very great video and another art to celebrate Christmas in a warm land with an amazing landscape. Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Be health and safe. Warm regards, Alex..

[@williamaylmer2194]

Awesome, thank you and happy Christmas guys 🙏

[@TheJttv]

That was some insane canyon flying. Wish you could do that in at Niagara falls/gorge

[@PilotBambi]

Crazy hey?? This is also the only company that is allowed to go so low into the gorge. You need some crazy pilot skills to fly like this.

[@charleshagman5025]

Wow! Just incredible!!

[@grantnyenes3742]

Fantastic, you were really getting close to the edge. I can’t believe how low that water is compared to when I was there… looking forward to seeing your next flight to Malawi…

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you!! Gosh, that swim in devils pools was hectic, but so breathtaking. I really hope to visit the falls again after the rainy season. Malawi vlog is almost done and will be online after christmas. happy holidays!

[@w4vy]

Thanks for the nice video Bambi. ❤️ Merry Christmas 🎄☃️🎄 to you and to your family 🎄☃️🎄 Here's to 2022 👍😎🍓

[@robertlombardi2228]

Pilot Bambi - only one word describes this video - “breathtaking”. Amazing video content- thanks for sharing! P.S. Sometimes it’s better not to know what you will be doing - in this case it just adds to the excitement of your adventure. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[@PilotBambi]

Thank you so much!!!

[@PTSix-eg4zj]

At 5:23...reckless. I'm a 31 year veteran helicopter bush pilot and I get very frustrated watching people overestimate their abilities on these videos. And when it eventually does go fatal over the glassy water; they will have the GoPro footage for the families to use against them. Not impressed.

[@Th3Butcher76]

I'm a 47 year old military helicopter pilot Nothing reckless there, he was flying within limits and he's obviously a very capable pilot

[@PTSix-eg4zj]

@@Th3Butcher76 that's because you are military and he is not...I have seen too many fatalities in industry just trying to look cool unnecessarily. River runs, hammerheads, buzzing the crew, no place for it if you could give one reason why to do it, then I am all ears. I was young and dumb once but after 13,000 hours and over thirty years I can't think of one good reason to be a foot over a river in a single engine aircraft solely for "fun factor" The military have good reason for nap flying, but in the civilian world there is no place for it.

[@dpragain]

How is your editing so good?

[@johanswart1257]

It's such a pity you couldn't get a flight plan for Zambia, one of the most beautiful countries on the African Continent. Zimbabwe is my country of birth and as a kid, we spent years in Zambia as well. I hope to return someday. Enjoy every moment and take care.....super enjoying your videos!

[@davidwheatcroft2797]

Excellent! You both have a talent for this. Plus lots of cash for the aeroplane? A pilot and builder of an aerobatic a/c. myself. I like your professional and FUN attitude. Being cute, helps of course. Would love to see more stuff from you. CAVU skies!

[@lmartinez3633]

Wow and amazing and insane experience…
