Talkdown, John Wildey

[@mychareyes961]

Imagine having him as a grand dad. He'll be the coolest grand dad ever! He's so charming.

[@steverg1st]

Sorry for the tardy approval & response - I've been quite busy with other things! Yes - and so unassuming. Wonderful guy.

[@safespacebear]

Just finished the documentary and now I'm here. He's too cool for achool and what an amazing team of people who all worked to give him his best opportunity. But when it was the moment of truth it was all on John and he answered the call.

No matter how bleak the situation seems, NEVER lose the will to live! That's what John Wildey's story has taught me.

[@MaryAnnSweetAngel]

This man is amazing. I hope to be as calm as him under pressure some day. Freaking love this man

[@ВалариПетровский]

He's a genius and the video is utterly compelling.

[@steverg1st]

Thanks - but not sure 'genius' is the right description. Very brave (my definition of 'brave' is being able to keep a level head even when you're scared to death) certainly and able to rise above his obvious fear and keep composed, thereby maximising the prospect of a positive outcome. He even did 2 go-arounds! Remarkable! They need to make a movie of this!!

[@luporis2375]

Wildey was awesome but you got to give credit to the people who helped him down too. Great teamwork

[@meekainc2650]

Such an EXTRAORDINARY story - I’ve watched the documentary so many times!!!

[@5Mariner]

That is one tough old boy!

[@steverg1st]

An amazingly calm guy.

[@alphahuskyy]

most humble guy ever! live long and prosper, John!!

[@markditz6282]

[@Carpenterdane]

John; "we were gong from the Humberside part to Doncaster area, then I saw the Trent and thought i'm going to have to do it". BBC lady; "Whats the Trent" John.....with astonished face; "It's a river" Brilliant!

[@NaveenKumar-bi2ku]

He is awsm .......

[@canefan17]

"Geography 101" LOL

[@Luca_86]

What's the Thames?

[@anthonyhutchins676]

If anyone could have done it, it was definitely him. He was cool and professional and seemed to have a good girl of common sense.

[@johnrogan9420]

Subtitles would help!

[@johnrogan9420]

He knew more about flying than he let on...former Air Force.

[@yamisoaegyeo]

He was a reserve, he'll have an idea. But he's old and never flew before.
