Hey +CGP Grey, I'm a pilot from Las Vegas, and I can tell you that the bend you see in the wing is completely normal and necessary! If they were to stay rigid, they would be under significantly more stress and be prone to failure in several locations. The flexibility allows for the plane to carry heavier loads, be more agile, and just maintain a greater sense of structural integrity (great when in turbulent conditions too!). Think of a bird and how their wings still curve even when just cruising. It reduces the stress on their joints. Loved the vlog and your work! Keep it up man.

[@ElectraFlarefire]

And if it worries you still, go look at test footage of them testing wings on things like the A380/747-8 they can flex a HUGE amount. Not the small amount they do in flight. It's some impressive engineering.

[@zecc81]

Xavier Morgan Correct, sir.

[@youngbloodbear9662]

Xavier Morgan the way tempered steel is stronger than hardened steel because it can bend without breaking.

[@ampoliros1776]

Electra Flarefire, impressive it is! Aircraft are all really overdesigned. You're expected to be prepared for anything that may go wrong in aviation and/or aerospace, so you design your vehicles to be able to withstand the most extreme of conditions in which they are expected to operate. Really neat stuff! zecc81, thank you my friend! Tim T., Indeed. The specifics of it are explored in college statics/dynamics courses, but it has to do with the distribution of the force and the acceleration of that system (F=MA!). I'm fairly sure it can be modeled using a set of oscillating differential equations, similar to a mass-spring system with dampeners.

That sort of wing flex is actually completely normal. There’s some really cool videos of Boeing and airbus wing flex tests and they can bend way more than you would ever think even possible before they snap

[@lapis3345]

[@Ryumare]

of course the wing has to bend, how else do you intend to flap them enough to make the plane fly?

[@xXBl4ckB3ltXx]

But in all seriousness, they bend because there's alot load on the wings from creating lift to counteract the weight. It's not too noticeable in smaller aircraft, but in the bigger airplanes like the one you flew on, it's alot more noticeable. Boom. Aerodynamics.

[@silver6380]

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this...but this trip took place on March 11-13, 2017, which is interesting, because daylight saving time began in the US on the 12th. Which means that Grey actually lost an hour in the middle of this, and the time difference between Las Vegas and London changed from 8 hours to 7 hours (DST begins two weeks later in the UK). In the video, this happens at 7:48. So part of why people "stayed up way late" is because it went from 1:59 to 3:00 during that extremely long dinner.

Wing bending is a normal part of take off and landing. It's kind of like how you want buildings to be slightly bendy so they absorb the force of wind and earthquakes and stuff instead of cracking under the stress. They even have these giant hanger sized machines to bend plane wings up and down repeatedly simulating take offs and landings to see how many they can do before the metal becomes fatigued and is in danger of breaking. Gotta love engineers.

[@JaingSkirata]

For large aircraft, wings aren't always straight on the ground either. They often appear to droop slightly, which in the air allows them to flex upwards the correct amount.

[@greygag36]

I believe the spec for a 737 is somewhere around 30 feet of movement at the tips during testing.

[@seabb]

Tyler Greene dang.

[@laurentdeserresberard9600]

Thats is actually cool and fun to know. Thanks

[@greygag36]

So I did some research again. That wasn't a 737 it was a 787. The 747 wing broke in testing at 34 feet within inches of where the engineers predicted it would though a full foot more flex.

[@KlausValk]

OMG Hello, been watching u since like 2016 october

[@WitchieNL]

As far as ive seen pretty much all the airplanes have wings that bend. I mean... try making a steel plate 50m long that supports what... 100 tons? of weight in the middle.... I dont think any material would not bend under that kind of weight. Even a crane capable of lifting 1000tons will bend. Last time i flew from Amsterdam to Turkey for holiday something else happened tho... At take off one of the bolts holding the aluminum plates onto the wings stuck out about 1 cm. When we arived 4 hour later the bolt was gone. I was still a little kid back then and told the pilot when we got out. I could remember the look on his face and emediately knew he was not happy with that news :p. Was only one out of about 40 that held that panel into place tho.... most planes can fly with half their parts missing.

[@AdrijanPekovic]

Bending of the wing, also known as wing flex, is a completely normal phenomenon. Wings can sustain pretty huge bending, nowhere even close to what happens on an usual flight. The effect is way more pronounced on newer large aircraft with long wings made out of composite materials.

[@AdrijanPekovic]

The wings are designed to flex so some part of the stress could be absorbed by the bending itself, rather than having it on the structure of the wing.

[@linkboy16]

Actually, if the wings were completely rigid, they would simply snap off and the plane would fall out of the air. Its a byproduct of the airflow, though...

[@Motolav]

Richard Hazinski if it was completely rigid the stress would have to affect somewhere else

[@CleopatraKing]

Me watching post "hexagons are the bestagons" and remembering that thing about honey comb panelling. Watching the part where the wing gets real flexed and it makes me wonder if that contributed in some way to the hexagon vid.

Are you trying to say that he is wearing a grey tie?

Yes, the wing has to bend. It carries the weight of the entire plane and so the wingtips will be higher than the fuselage once in flight. Just like you placed the wingtips on a table and let the middle float in free space.

[@Markd315]

Furthermore rigid wings would put more stress on the root which is bad, so the whole thing is made with flexible materials.

[@FallenPatta]

Wing bending ist 100% and absolutely normal. They are made with that in mind. Just search for: "Boeing 787 Wing Loading Test"

[@alecbasba]

Plus that plane mock-up he WTFed is a part of a fire supression training facility.

May have been done elsewhere, but it would be really interesting to see a video from you covering why you had to change the settings on your phone when going through US customs. Why a passcode is safe but TouchID isn't, the laws covering it, etc.

[@hedgechasing]

Sam Payne they can't crack a passcode but it wouldn't be hard to push your thumb on a phone and rifle through it. Not sure about the legality though.

[@mawlinzebra]

Sam Payne because your fingerprint isn't protected under the fifth amendment but a password/code is. They wouldn't need a warrant to unlock your phone if you have fingerprint enabled.

[@emostorm7]

iPhones aren't the best for security... and 3g? that's still around? wow

I don't think I have ever watched a vlog of this length all the way through let alone enjoyed it.

Did you ever get to Las Vegas or did you spend the entire time in Paradise, Nevada?

I appreciated this joke.

how is it a joke? paradise is not technically in las vegas

Oh, and of course in a good way. I could enjoy this type of situational vlog from time to another. Lets be realistic CGP Grey will NEVER become a daily "vlogger" :D

[@Marwington]

Being efficient is so damn satisfying. Especially when you actually manage to pull off a plan that you put together. "What if I iron my shirt while waiting for water to boil? I could save good two-five minutes, up to ten if I eat breakfast while ironing... That's 10 potential minutes to waste as I please... or sleep."

Actually he said sleep at *irregular* times to be sad. He was going out of his way to keep a *regular* sleep pattern which would actually be better.

[@justsomebody-1665]

wow Grey, you use SO MUCH toothpaste. I think I use about 1/3 of what I saw you put on your toothbrush. Interesting blog. Las Vegas is a city that truly runs 24h a day so it was perfect.

He even made a interview behind a tree. (ok it wasn't a interview but something else like it)

I guess you've never watched Casey Neistat, but this was a very good vlog indeed. I wasn't expecting it to be as good

[@asherwilkins465]

damn, that's how you vlog

[@electrocast]

I was born in Vegas & lived there for 18 years, pretty much growing up there. Moved to one state, then to another, both of which I hate, and I want nothing more to go back home again. Watching your montage teared me up, but I think I needed to see it, I haven't been there in so long but when you filmed a spot I'd been in, places I'd taken pictures with my family, it really hit me in a way I didn't expect it to.

[@MNSTRs]

Hey, how are you in life? I saw your comment and wondered whether you moved back to Las Vegas or at least visited. :)

[@electrocast]

@@MNSTRs sorry but no, still stuck in hell. had no money to go back 😭

3:01 that is WAY too much toothpaste grey

[@bobbytables464]

What? That's a completely normal amount.

[@willk113]

Sam M. Idk I kinda agree I thought it was a little much

[@LegitimateJuice]

It's not normal at all lol. The companies put it that way in the commercials so you'll use more and therefore buy more. Look up the actual amount you need to put on your toothbrush. Just because you use too much toothpaste doesn't make it a normal amount

[@__maxyz]

Sam M. You don't need more than a pea-sized amount of toothpaste. They only use a whole line in the commercials so that you buy more toothpaste :)

[@aMindOfMetalAndWheels]

Grey, as a Avionics Maintenance Engineer and I can assure you the structural elasticity of most modern commercial passenger jet's wings allows them to flex even as much 30 degrees and the slight camber you captured is entirely normal and no cause for concern.

[@289greenbottlesirl5]

WingsOfTheTempest +

[@ethanmoore1315]

WingsOfTheTempest Translation: Iz fieeeene...

[@Skip6235]

+

[@copperhamster]

Yeah, the wings are flexing because they're going from mostly hanging off the plane to the plane hanging off of them. Aren't the wings on the Dreamliner supposed to be so strong yet flexible you could apply enough force to deform them to touch their tips over the plane and they would still relax back to their normal position? I find it unlikely they made them that capable, because there are important bits inside the wings that wouldn't be happy after having the wing deformed that much (hydraulics, mechanical components for moving flaps and slats, etc...) I don't remember how high off the floor they put it, but I remember seeing a video from the 70s where they were explaining how and why air frames fatigue and they put a taunt rope across the empty pressurized cargo bay of a 747 while it was at cruising altitude and when it landed it was touching the floor in the middle.

[@Lychee959]

Staying on your home time zone when travelling definitely works. A lot of athletes will use it if they don't want to acclimate to the time shift before a sporting event and they plan on leaving quickly afterwards. Loved the vlog!

[@mattbenz99]

Many Asian businessmen keep western hours if they are doing a lot of traveling. If you being wide awake can be the difference between huge amounts of money, not seeing the sun at home is a small sacrifice. Heck, my dad was a former stock broker and he told me many people in America would schedule their day around the Japanese market time to not risk missing anything.

[@ndubitably]

I love revisiting this video every so often around the 8:58 mark. Vegas/Henderson is a unique place to live and every now and then you'll be out (Strip/Fremont) when few else are and it is such a sublime experience.

[@dorkmax7073]

As a plane enthusiast, don't even sweat it man. Its supposed to be bendy. If it wasn't bendy, the plane would snap because brittle metals don't make good planes. When its bending, that's how you know its absorbing stresses with ease, so all's good.

[@The51stDivision]

But the real question is: what the **** is that green plane?

[@ItIsCoMpLiCaTeDsTuFf]

Looks like an empty steel hull where the airport fire department practices putting out fires on planes

[@bohlin01]

+The 51st Division it looks like the tail of a dc 10 merged with the nose of a 747 lol

[@MJackonYT]

Grey, this was absolutely awesome. Please continue to do side projects like this in the future.

[@nomad_geek]

I really enjoyed this video when you published it, and gave it a 👍 when I watched it - but after listening to the latest Cortex I wanted to stop by again and say it explicitly: I did enjoy this. It was different but still in your unique style. It gave us a little glimpse into how your world works and I'm glad you found a way to do something like this comfortably. So Thanks. #proofreadfirst

This is the best vlog I have ever seen! I love what you have created; creating your own style of vlogging to match your imagination. This was highly entertaining and intriguing to the max.
