I have no problem with tool bags endangering themselves..............

The video of the guy hovering a nitro 90 near his hungover sleeping friend is MUCH worse IMO.

A bigger nitro Heli that can potentially chicken dance (an electric you can shut off the motor or the battery ejects or something usually stops it) plus three guys few feet away. Ok this wins the prize. This is wrong in so many ways.

I did that ONE time (a long time ago) with a 450 (in a larger room) and will never do again.

1) If it was against the law to be stupid, half of us would be in jail.

2) If someone is going to do this (and possibly kill himself), at least he/she had the foresight to FILM IT for the world, so the medical examiner would have an easy time determining the cause of death.

3) I wish morons who do this kind of stuff would NOT film it, so the rest of us won't be lumped in with him.

4) I have done run-ups in the house for a brand new build, or course, but without main and tail blades.

Thank you.

It's a shame people do things like this. All it takes is one slip up to possibly end your life. Then the media will eat up the story of how a "drone" killed a guy in his living room.

Then the law comes crashing down and ends the hobby.
