Bill Hempel's new video

[Fletcher, Richard]

I must have missed something, which stunt are you guys talking about that
you see as very dangerous? The video I saw was the one of the Jason-like
doll flying around hanging under the plane. Followed by a rear view of the
plane in flight. I thought that was one of the best videos I have seen in a
long time.
 

Thanks, Rich

Agree.  All it takes is ONE accident during such a stunt.  Dwayne

I went back and saw the video again and re-read what I wrote, below. I
disappointed myself. My first reaction was hey really kool that you guys can
do that.
 
Then the thought crept into my head of the time 17 years ago, a 3 1/2 hp
lawn mower nearly chopped my hand off. 
 
Here we have a huge amount of power, a prop that has zero conscience (like a
bullet) and a couple of guys that are so experienced, they believe they
can't get hurt. It may be true of them, but what if someone who isn't that
experienced gets to try it, and gets seriously hurt?
 
Sorry guys, I apologize for my earlier email which condones the stunts. I
take it back.  I think these are very irresponsible and downright dangerous.

 
You want to fire away at me, go ahead. I am very thick skinned (VBG)

Try here.

THAT'S TRULY KOOL BEANS. Dangerous, but kool. I particularly liked the one
where you  went for a ride. You're NUTS. I suppose 20hp equates to about 300
pounds of thrust, heh? (BG)
 
That 20 hp meat grinder up front would scare me to death to even think about
these stunts, let alone do'em. 
 
Evel Knievel had nothing on youze guys.
