I think getting blasted by a jet that low that imparts that much down blast is a pretty clear "turn the fuck around" instruction in any language...

>If they don't understand why it happened why would they leave.
If you're confused when a military aircraft buzzes you in a restricted area, you shouldn't be driving. The reality is the military doesn't care if you understand or not, that's not important. Their job is to keep random people off restricted areas, if you can't tell someone wants your attention when you're repeatedly buzzed by aircraft, that's on you. This is commonplace in secure areas. Just look up what happened at the NSA entrance on the east coast when two dealers took the wrong turn. Same would happen at any other restricted area.
They have a lot more to lose by not keeping the place secure.

It's too late, I'm already deaf from the lack of volume control. RIP my ears.

If they don't understand why it happened why would they leave. Seems like it should be meant to explain if that is the point.

Where I grew up, I used to live under the flight path near Heathrow. Around 6pm everyday it was deafening, but you got used to it. Never stopped being amazing.

I just cringe whenever I see "Fighting Falcon" anywhere on the web. Yeah, maybe for a manufacturer's brochure back in the 1970s. Every Air Force guy I have ever talked to calls them Vipers.

Pretty much anything that involves approaching a military facility you shouldn't, especially if they have active training at that time. That's better than how some places handle it. You get one warning to turn around, if you keep approaching they open fire until you're neutralized. IIRC, it happened at the NSA entrance years ago, two dealers didn't read the signs towards the entrance (it's very clear it's a restricted area) and panicked.

It was basically borderline impossible to hit propeller aircraft with average rifles/guns during WWII. You're not hitting a jet, you probably won't even get your gun up before it's already passed.

It's literally just a model right now. Usually takes a bit longer than that to develop an aircraft, test parts, get manufacturing set up, get it approved/qualified by the FAA, then sell it. Not to mention how many companies and "idea" planes pop up already.
Unfortunately, without an engine or half-way working prototype, they haven't really even taken the first steps in development, at least not the challenging ones. If they already had made progress, I'd say they have a chance, but it's still way too early to have any hope.

Because shorts are the same thing as videos, just with less options, also called "Worse". Would you buy a car with only 3 wheels, or one of the cylinders deactivated? There's just no reason to use them over regular videos.

I hope this is not true, I actually tried to search for sources on this, but I found none.

They're going to need an engine first. They literally don't have one.

Yes, but the format isn't optimized for them. You have to hit a separate button to open a portrait mode comment window. It's horrible.

After a half hour of Tineye / searching, the best I can find is this comment on a previous posting of the video:
"Theater, and there were reports on the driver and what may have been in his vehicle. He's still alive and well to my knowledge."
