This is fucking cool. A spitfire crash caught on film from 1944 and they tracked down the pilot 63 years later and showed him the footage he had never seen before.

That was cool, I really thought at first I was going to fast forward, but seeing that old pilot recall his flights and his reaction when he saw his own heavy landing was great.

Good find Thumbs Up

That was pretty cool. Must admit though, the narrator's voice had such a typical, droning hipster tone. Puke

Still good though, and I think the old geezer took it pretty well. He just thought it was awesome.

You're not a proper man until you've belly-landed a WW2 warbird.

Aww that was an awesome watch Thumbs Up

Agreed about the narrator, hate people who sound like that, there is a vice journalist that gets ripped for it constantly
