🇬🇧BRIT Reacts To THE NFL FLYOVER - AMERICAS GREATEST PRE- GAME TRADITION! *I need to witness this..

[@wandahenry3606]

I’ve been Blessed to attend games with flyovers throughout the years and tears stream down my cheeks with heart bursting pride for my Father and my country! Pop was a very proud Veteran! Rest In Paradise Pop! 🇱🇷

Same, R.I.P. All our fathers, uncles, grandfathers etc.. that served our country. 🇺🇸

It isn’t tho. Clown fart. US spends more on healthcare because of its shitty system. Not less.

[@sikksotoo]

In addition to the NFL, the opening to the Army/Navy football classic can be quite emotional as well.

[@Armyaunt73]

America is a very proud & patriotic country. We like to showcase the excellence of our military. I live in Western Massachusetts & specifically down the road from Westover Airforce Base. I never get tired of seeing & hearing the many different aircrafts/helicopters. It always gives me an overwhelming sense of pride. Every 2yrs Westevers hosts the BLUE ANGEL'S airshow & it's amazing. I can honestly say there's nothing like it. When you come to the U S. you should see if you can see their show, it'll blow your mind. ❤️

[@Chris-so6qf]

During the opening ceremonies of the Indy 500 one year, there was a planned B-2 Stealth Bomber flyover. I was in a drum corps nearby rehearsing for our upcoming season, and one of the instructors leading it had everyone (~150 people) stop for about sixty seconds and just watch it fly over us at a couple thousand feet. “The only reason we’re stopping is because this may be the only chance some of you have, in your entire life, to see that plane; it is literally designed to be unseen.” 😂

[@JacobNascar]

I love Drum Corp and I love racing!

[@wadeschalk4599]

I got to see one at an Oklahoma State game and I'll never forget it. They're WAY bigger than I thought they were and it's SO quiet. It was also going really really slow and it makes an impact on you far more impressionable than the fast and loud jets. It feels like a gigantic dragon just staring down at you while it goes over.

[@agirlnamedbrett.]

I live next to 95 in Maryland which planes sometimes use and after 9/11 one actually flew over my house. something at 35 I still have burned in my brain.

[@michaeltipton5500]

I'm 20 years retired Air Force. While I didn't fly I was in support. I've been stationed around the world and with nearly every plane. Yes it still give me a great sense of pride. Especially these older planes that were well cared for and still fly today. The really big plane at the end was a C-5 Galaxy cargo plane.

[@susanhunter9196]

Love the flyover! During covid lockdown the Wisconsin national guard did a flyover of different areas of Wisconsin. I stood in the driveway with my family and we all cheered as the plane flew over. Definitely lifted our spirits.

[@TanyaQueen182]

I live across the river from TIAA Bank Field which is the home NFL field for the Jacksonville Jaguars. When they do flyovers at the stadium, they turn and fly over the river and my house. If you're in the stadium, or even in my driveway, you can FEEL the planes in your chest like bass at a concert. It's awe-inspiring.

[@lorettascurato2692]

In my 20s through 40s, my husband and I went to many air shows across the country. It’s an incredible experience and can no longer be reproduced, as so many aircraft have been retired over the decades. You never get tired of the rumbling sound. They’re so fast and you don’t always know the direction they’ll come from, so often you’re surprised by them screaming overhead and it makes you automatically duck, even though they’re very high above you. What a thrill!! I wish you could have been there in the good old days-you would have LOVED it!! This was a great video.

[@tidritblag9877]

I live a couple towns over from Fenway Park and the Sox do a decent amount of flyovers for a baseball team, and my house was in the flight path where they did a few circles prior to the anthem, and holy god it was fun to watch. Everyone in the neighborhood would come out to watch

[@paulwilson1193]

I was at the 1st public flyover of the stealth bomber. It was at the Kentucky derby kick-off show, followed by at the time a world record setting foreworks show. I'll never forgot that weekend.

[@dianecostanza]

When the Blue Angels come to Long Island for their the 4th of July air show, they fly right over my house and you hear them before you see them. It always gives me goosebumps. Once they flew over while I was driving down the expressway and your trying to drive and watch them at the same time. Not a great idea, lol.

[@dougbowers4415]

Well not at a football game, I was attending the Rose Bowl Parade in Pasadena California one New Year’s Day when the B2 bomber flew down the parade route of Colorado Boulevard at an extremely low altitude. It was quite impressive.

[@carolyncostner9619]

The ground under your feet literally vibrates! The player so excited at the beginning of the video is Luke Kuechly. He was one of the best defensive linemen in the NFL. He played for the Panthers.

[@Mvtobebo]

Being in the color guard before basketball games and hearing the crowd after we do our stomp to attention was intense I can only imagine what those pilots felt after a perfect flyover.

[@skeletonbone]

they’re so crazy in person like you know they’re loud but it always surprises me how loud they really are I’ll feel like I’m prepared for it but it still makes my ears hurt a little after

[@skeletonbone]

and you don’t just hear it you feel like it like stadium shakes it’s wild

[@victorsixtythree]

The lengthy flyovers at the Queen's Jubilee celebration were AWESOME!!

[@kinghershybar4294]

The even do flyovers in college. They did it at mine for veterans appreciation week

[@rg20322]

I had 2 A10's do a low fly over of my condo when I was on the balcony drinking coffee in NH. This happened around 12 years ago and I almost S@@@ myself. We have a small airport around 1.5 miles away and this was so unexpected, and the thunder/shaking was absolutely awesome!!! They must have been practicing something since they came around 30 min later.

[@MeanLaQueefa]

All but 1 game I’ve attended had flyovers and I attend quite a bit. Love them, absolutely love them, right after the National Anthem. You do feel patriotic

[@beesnestna9544]

Even if you're not at a game, a flyover is one of the most impressive sights you will ever see. I've seen many flyovers under many different circumstances, none of which involved me being at a sporting event. I've seen A-10 Warthogs, F-16 Falcons, the F-117 Stealth Fighter, F-15 Eagles, Blackhawk Helicopters, V-22 Ospreys and even some of the huge military transport jets. I also experienced flyovers by vintage WWII planes. Fighter jets make such a distinctive and unmistakable sound unlike any other jets you would normally hear, and the sound of the A-10 is in a class all its own. Videos don't even come close to the real thing. I even saw a flyover by the older F-4 Phantoms many, many, years ago. There's nothing quite like the flyover. Find an airshow and go experience some 1st Class "Impressive"!😉✌

[@victorsixtythree]

In 1999 I was living in Cambridge, Massachusetts (just across the Charles River from Boston) watching the season three finale of Buffy The Vampire Slayer (great episode!)...when I heard a rumbling in the distance. It got louder and closer...and even louder and louder...until my whole apartment started shaking. It turns out Boston was hosting the Baseball All-Star Game and they had a flyover to kick things off and the plane flew (I swear!) ten feet over my apartment on it's way to Fenway Park. (Okay, I don't know how close the plane actually was but it SHOOK the building for sure).

[@stellaandes759]

I had goosebumps too!

[@SUPRAMIKE18]

Coolest flyover the I've was a B-1 bomber at night, they hit the afterburners and pulled up so the rear was pointing down at the stadium, full sound of those engines blasting straight into the stadium was amazing!

[@spuds416]

Here in AZ Luke AFB is less than 5 miles from the Arizona Cardinals Stadium (I retired from 20 years of service in the USAF, Luke was my last assignment) Flyovers are Considered Training and Recruitment tool. People say it's a waste of money but those flights would take place anyways so why not give the people a view of their Military. What people don't realize is that it takes numerous of Ground personnel to achieve these flights. You have Crew Chiefs, Weapons troops, Avionics specialists, Fuels, Sheet metal, ground equipment specialists and many more to prepare the acft for flight then they have to Recover and ready the acft for the next days flights/ missions

[@md_vandenberg]

I've watched videos of flyovers done in Great Britain. There's something fantastic about seeing and hearing several RAF Spitfires escorting a Lancaster bomber, whether in honor of the Queen's Jubilee or a recently departed WWII soldier who fought for King and Country.

[@elecjack1]

Can't wait to be able to see a B-21 Raider during a flyover. I am sure it will still be a while. But, man that is going to be an impressive sight. Great reaction as always Kabir!

[@greggfla]

Outstanding reaction, thank you Kabir.

[@leebassa1545]

I love a good flyover! Being a military child and growing up around airshows my whole life, it was amazing! BUT, the best one was during the Covid lockdown, the Air Force Thunderbirds did a flyover of several sections all over San Antonio, Texas! It meant so much more than the airshow flyovers, because they did it purely for the morale of the people. It was beautiful!

[@brandyforsythe1882]

So glad you got to this one!

[@suefantastic4584]

While possibly not quite as impressive as some flyovers, the one that I loved the most (every NFL game Ive ever been to had a flyover btw), was the Superbowl where Whitney Houston performed in Tampa. It seemed to exponentiate her performance (not like it was needed), and I will value that performance for the rest of my life. I wasnt there, but watched it live on TV.. RIP Ms. Houston.. you are so greatly loved. xo

[@douglascampbell9809]

Kabir during the first war in Iraq the US military was flying over 1000 sorties a day. That's 1000 missions involving a hell of a lot more planning and logistics that just flying over a dozen or so stadiums inside the US.

[@thseed7]

Seen at least 15 flyovers between Arrowhead, Mile High and Giants Stadium because of nearby Air Force and Naval bases. Bombers, Fighter Jets, A-10 Warthogs and Parachute Jumpers. All of them are awesome, but nothing compares to B-2 Stealth Bombers. They are so much bigger than you think and such a unique technological achievement that nothing can match them.

[@SoulCriminal]

have only experienced one flyover in a stadium and it was pretty intense as the whole stadium shook and i had no idea they flew so low...also my house is in the flight path for the flyovers that go over Fenway park so thats always exciting to be outside for especially since it happens about three times as they are preparing

[@topherwhite370]

Because of the location of our seats and the flight lanes, we almost never get to see them while in the stadium. However, helicopters have a different flight lane and they had a pretty cool copter group fly over last game. Usually, they have the flight crews show up later and introduce them. (Usually about midway in the third quarter - time to get the flights back to base and then drive the crews to the game.)

[@bigjay123]

Thats a Leather Bomber/Pilots jacket. They're pretty easily available in shops.

[@j_mill9356]

I always liked when I was younger visiting Virginia Beach and having the jets flyby supersonic it’s the best thing ever I recommend checking out afterburner sonic booms from jets on video

[@zwansox]

I was walking home from work in Boston. Didn’t expect a B-2 over my apartment ( near Fenway). Scary at first, WTF, then realized Sox game was starting

[@dracul115]

Every Husker home game that I’ve been has had a flyover. It definitely helps that there is a Air National Guard base in the city and an Air Force base relatively close.

[@UahUahUah]

In Colorado, flyovers have an extra ode of attention given to them because of the rapid fluctuations in terrain height and all of the skyscrapers surrounding our football field. It's quite a risky flight. Empower Field rests at the highest altitude in the National Football League, which complicates the entire game for everyone... the thinner air takes its toll on the visiting team's players and staff, and the flyover happens at a much higher altitude than in other cities.

[@mildredpierce4506]

There’s also a flyover of the stealth bomber at the start of the tournament of roses parade on January 1 of every year.

[@BradleyDavid1962]

Watch the flyover at Arrowhead stadium, 49 planes, it's pretty cool.

[@patriciab8876]

Yes, October 2013, 49 homemade Van's planes flown by amateur pilots, in formation trailing pink smoke in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There are several videos on YT of it (all really short) & one filmed by the pilots showing the planning & communication between pilots during the flyover.

[@isaiahpavia-cruz678]

I went to USA v Colombia in the opening of the Copa America Centenario in 2016. The flyover was a few seconds late after the anthem 😂

[@noahstuart606]

The jets are cool and all but those A10’s are just unrivaled badass

[@mescko]

I have witnessed one Stealth flyover and I had always assumed it was about the same size as an F-15 which I had seen before. Nuh-uh. That thing is big.

[@jerred9655]

The flyover is also an event that gives pilots actual flight time to there logs.

[@62rowley]

Our national guard with the F-16s would do flyovers for State high school championship games, and other occasions

[@sactyb]

Being in the US military for over 21 years, we are at our safest when we are operating at 100%…most of our mishaps usually always happen when you think less of the situation..it’s really weird, almost like god or something evil had a part in it…like if you let your guard down for literally just a split second and everything goes to hell…that’s why I learned to take everything seriously especially when it involves potential life threatening situations..basically there’s a time and place to be serious…and another time and place for play..

[@LibertyWolf1]

The military uses the flyover as a training exercise.

[@george217]

I also like to see the paratroopers jump into a stadium...

[@REV.995]

They are used for our pilots to get air hours and precision training to be on target, on time.

[@mojo1321]

Nascar has some cool flyovers too

[@generichardson4771]

they have the flyover at nascar races as well like for daytona they have F16s fly over from patrick air force base in titisville near the cape where they launch the rockets

[@TheCosmicGenius]

I have been to football games here in Kansas City, at Arrowhead Stadium, when they've had flyovers. Stealth bombers, which isn't much of a surprise, since the Stealths are mostly kept at nearby Whitman Air Force Base, about 60 miles southeast of here. Flyovers can be exciting, exhilerating, intimidating, & even a little frightening - especially if you're not expecting it.

[@brendafrazier811]

Same! I don’t live far from Arrowhead and sometimes the flight path takes them over my house. Sometimes I hear them but am too late to see them. I was at a Monday night game sitting in the very top row and I swear it felt like they were going to hit us!

[@JacobNascar]

The coolest flyover I ever saw was this year at the 2022 Nascar Bristol Night Race. I was towards the top and while they were prepping for the national anthem, I could see this large military propeller airplane making steap banked turns off in the distance flying through the Smokey Mountains and as the song was ending, he flew real close to the stands right at me and took a hard left at the last second and then there was fireworks. Anybody curious can just watch 2022 Bristol Night Race Flyover

[@spike3082]

That was a Lockheed C-130H Hercules cargo plane I have had the privilege of flying in a few of them when I was in the army and it's a cold and uncomfortable flight cargo net seating but I wouldn't trade those experiences for anything the sound and power of those 4 turbo prop engines are bliss

[@JacobNascar]

@@spike3082 I bet that was awesome! When it was off in the distance making sharp turns, seeming almost wing span vertical.

[@spike3082]

@@JacobNascar one of the best experiences of my life and when it banks like that you have to hold on or you will take a tumble

I'd love to see some flyovers in the UK with some Vulcans

[@ins1981Lest]

Hmm, well I've been to 15-20 or so NFL games, all in the same place, and they had a flyover almost every time. So it happens more often than you think. Of course they're patriotic and cool so it make sense, but it also doesn't involve a lot of complicated logistics and the aviators love any excuse to do a mission and log some flight time. So it's good training for them too.
