Charles,
I came across that video earlier this year, and wondered how in the *&%# could he have recovered out of that. Doing a full power slip of the lift of the fuselage, and prop wash at that slow speed maybe...but recovering from a spin with one wing???

Then I found out it was one of the fake viral videos created for some company... It had me fooled and they did a heck of a job creating it. Still good entertainment though.

Do not know how to get on face book but if it is the same one I am thinking about it is a hoax, the guy did it with a gas powered radio controlled airplane. When Josh gets home I will look to make sure, Gary Fisher filled me in on the hoax as I sent him the video via E-mail.

Yeh, a friend of a friend of mine, got hold of the "real" footage, but it really did look real. Some folks are really good at foolin other folks.
