(jet engine roaring)
- Oh, wow!
We are currently at Loveland Airfield,
and I'm about to go for a ride in that.
(upbeat rock music)
Oh, I hope I don't throw up.
(upbeat music)
So I know what you're thinking,
why would anyone want to put a YouTuber in a jet?
Well, they pick people that have had influence
on the community and whatnot,
and we've done a bunch of fundraisers and stuff
for different charities.
Most recently we raised $14,000
for Alex's Lemonade Stand, a nonprofit that raises money
for children's cancer research.
I have no idea what I'm doing right now.
I didn't even know if I wanted to do this,
but I knew I wasn't gonna say no.
Apparently it goes 1,200 miles per hour.
(jet engine roaring)
(crowd cheering) (upbeat music)
(Taylor laughs nervously) He went straight up.
Wow, you can feel it in your entire body when it comes by.
- Today, you'll pretty much hit the sound barrier,
odds are, break the sound barrier,
and this is the amount of Gs that you guys pull in.
(dramatic music)
- It's very heavy.
It's just like you're getting pulled in.
You feel your face kind of suck back a little bit.
Your cheeks kind of pull down a little bit.
- Guys, when you're pulling high Gs,
blood is going to your lower extremities
and we need that blood to come into your brain.
If your brain doesn't have oxygen, you go night, night.
So you're gonna go here, eject, eject, eject,
the third eject, you're gonna go up,
gonna deploy, gonna see the cam to deploy,
you're gonna see these red handles.
(melancholy music)
Ready, hit.
(men breath quickly)
(crows cawing)
- All right it's go time.
(upbeat music)
I also just found out that the ride is 45 minutes long,
45 minutes in a jet.
We could go to Canada and back like twice.
- [Pilot] All right, Dude Dad,
what we're gonna do is a high performance climb
on takeoff, okay?
- Sounds good. Let's send it!
Would this be a good time to tell you
I threw up on the Tilt-A-Whirl?
(upbeat music)
(jet engine roaring)
- [Pilot] Ready, up.
(animated boinging)
Nice.
How you feel?
- Good!
(upbeat music)
Oh, wow!
Woo, this might be the first time I've been on a plane
in about five years without a kid.
- [Pilot] Oh yeah? (laughs)
Nice, man.
- So, it's pretty relaxing.
- A few moments, gonna give us a chance
to assess how our body's gonna respond
to G forces today, okay?
- All right.
- [Pilot] Here's two Gs, nothing crazy.
A little pull.
Here's three and a half, pulling down.
Here comes four. There's four right there.
You're doing great.
Keep your nose high.
Six Gs.
Nice. - Hold on, I'm really warm.
You gotta give me a minute, I'm feeling woozy.
("The Star Spangled Banner")
I'm gonna need that mouthwash.
That ain't no joke, man.
Holy cow.
All right, I was gonna do a wrap up at the airfield,
but honestly, I was so out of it, I could barely function.
Heidi drove me home
and I literally went to bed at five o'clock.
But I do want to say a huge thank you
to the entire Blue Angels crew.
Even though I got sick, it was still amazing
and truly of the ride of a lifetime.
And I also want to give a huge shout out
to all of our service men and women,
especially those flying jets.
I don't know how you do what you do.
(rock music) - [Child] Dad, dude dad,
dude dad, dude.
- Make sure to kick those tires too.
Check that.
That's pretty slick.
- [Blue Angel] Yeah, right?
- Yeah.
That's pretty slick.
