You don't see anything wrong or dangerous with this type of activity? Hrmmmmmm. Unfortunately, I tend to agree that this is becoming the 'norm' for it just makes me sick to see so many people bragging and carrying on like they are oh so important to the hobby that they have to act like total morons, faking stunts (dragging people underneath airplanes) and showing off for the camera. The 3D guys think that they are so much better than the rest of us and it is apparent in their actions caught on video. Why can't people just be themselves instead of trying to impress everyone and be the center of attention. It just shows how how arrogant, self-centered and egotistical they are. Example: 'Sup ya'll, Cirkus in da house.......' we've all heard that one and it's just plain ridiculous. I have known MANY people who NEVER acted the way the majority of the people in the widely posted videos on certain websites that I will choose not to mention now. This is supposed to be a family oriented hobby and many of the videos are edited and posted with songs and language totally innapropriate for younger audiences. I agree with cactusflyer in that since my involvement in R/C back in 1983, sometimes I too feel ashamed to be in this hobby. People like those in this video give the hobby a bad name. Granted they might have had fun doing this but they don't need to post that kind of crap. However, Eddie I don't agree with a speed event for jets.....sorry. That's all been discussed in another thread and I don't want to go there again.
