Fellas,
There is a reason this is one of the most popular threads, day after day, on this message board. It's hysterical. Those of you who are hard-ases don't need to worry, he's not stepping in your cool-aid. He's down-to-earth and humble. Let's take a little deeper look at the video and I'll walk you through growing a sense of humor. This is a funny video because, while this man is an accomplished professional pilot, he takes time durring cruise-climb to tell us about *free food*. Now, clearly he is in a jet, and he's clearly in the left seat with four stripes, yet he welcomes us to his "JET" with the enthusiasm of an 18 y/o FO in a shiny RJ. While most proud pilots would show their machoism by speaking in a deep voice and smile as little as possible, Caneman wears a sh!t-eatin' grin while he squeaks out, "ooh, I'm getting pretty blown out there by the SUN." Aye cabrone, that's hysterical! It's also quite clear that he's really pushing the rules of the required rest, as every freight-dog does. "ANYWAY, it's not like a lot of footage of me flyin' around in my JET." There are so many one-liners packed in these seven minutes of laughter, my CA and I have been quoting him all week.
Parting and deepest thought; "I got on some sssstripes and ssssh!t on my sssshoulders. Like, I'm pretty much in charge of this thing." That there's funny, I don't care who y'are, that's funny. If you don't think that's funny, you need to spend some of your holy CAPITAN pay and buy yourself a sense of humor. Caneman, if you read this, there are a lot of silent fans... a silent majority. Keep up the good work and maybe you could stick to the pilot humor. If this website doesn't prove that pilots need someone like you, I don't know what would. Please, please, do some more pilot sssssshenanigans. Looking forward to seeing you around.
