Four weeks before last flight in 2003 - filmed roaring over my house - captures the speed. Focus improves! I climbed up on a wall - hence the crazy bit - sometimes the swirl from Concorde blew our bin lids off. After-burners can be seen. If the wind was right you could hear it start its take-off run on the ground. (August 2014 - just realized that the front wheel bay doors are closing as it comes into view) - Auta a dopravní prostředky

At least you can park your jet near your house. Just like GTA SA.

Quiet neighborhood, just steps from bustling shops and amenities.
Brilliant!

You right, if you read the description, it was 2002 or 2003

I love how even though it hadn't gone supersonic yet, the engines were *still* loud enough to set off the car alarm.
Never been to a military airshow huh
@@noob.168 ???? you're weird
@@exucia669for context: engines for Fighter jets are also really loud. I had an expirience with this. when i was on crete, some F-16s flew over the place we were staying. And they were *LOUD*. So loud that i covered my ears.
This also works on Airliners, they are also loud. But not loud enough to set off a car alarm. I was standing on a taxiway when a plane was taking off:/
@@noob.168 If you don'T understand things, don't talk about them -.-
No matter how many times I've seen this clip, I always get a pang of anxiety when Dad is scrambling about filming the path, the table and the rubbish bins followed by huge relief when he captures that exquisite moment so perfectly.
Oh how sweet of you! My only regret is that I didn't try to get a few more film clips - but sometimes you don't know what you have until it's gone. Plus as mentioned in my blurb, I had to wear ear defenders or I couldn't have filmed this (fingers firmly in ears) - so a bit of planning was required. But, yes, so damned close to not catching it!!

Indeed
I used to work for BA at Heathrow. Every weekday morning at about 10am the BA001 would take off for New York. At take-off the sound from the reheated engines was so loud you not only heard it but felt the vibrations in your chest. It accelerated off down the runway like a giant dragster, then at the end became a white triangle floating off into the sky.
3 hrs later it touched down in New York City. Awesome.

A shame that the doomed air France Concorde was mostly from negligent errors by the French pilot from overloading the rear baggage compartment, over filling the taxi fuel tank at the very back, filling all the rest of the tanks to the brim. This allowed no give,were any tyre pieces flicked up into under wing/tank. And to cap it, took off with a rear tail wind. this made the overall weight of the Concord excessive. The rest is history
Lovely piece of spontaneous film. Yes I remember her with great affection. I lived in the oldest house in Twickenham beside the old church and on the River Thames. At 7.30 in the evening I would hear a distant low roar from miles away and the china cupboard would shake. I would always step out onto the dockside and within 15 seconds Concorde would fly directly over me heading south, her deafening roar and after burners glowing and then immediately do a turn west to line herself up with the Bristol Channel, supersonic speed and New York.

Such an iconic aircraft. Everyone always stopped to look when it flew past. Even where I grew up in Dorking, where if it happened to go overhead (occasionally) it was much higher, but it was still deafening, and unmistakable.
Kinda reminds me of my childhood & growing up 1/2 mile from Malmstrom AFB in the 60’s - 70’s. I remember mom holding pictures on the wall & cussing every time a jet hit the sound barrier, and us kids jumping up & down cheering! Miss that sometimes . . .

You MUST be American doing that Muslim routine. Muslims have been in Britain for centuries, they didn't all just arrive last Thursday wearing suicide belts. Many British Muslims fought in two world wars for Great Britain while the USA was saying "Screw you, it's not our war"
Tony England there were virtually none in terms of percentage until a generation ago.
Stop believing shit, and more importantly, stop spreading it.
Tony England - I must be American eh. Why, because an Englishman would be burned at the stake for making such a remark? You miss the point, the Islamic population in England - and in the western EU, has exploded over the last fifty years. A group fundamentally incompatible with its host culture.
Funny, I didn’t have to mention suicide belts, you did...
Since you mention WWII, that really wasn’t America’s war before 1941, but the US still supplied Britain in her time of need under the Lend-Lease program, before complete involvement.
You must be American because you talk and talk about guns, then a World War starts and suddenly, none of you can find yours and say "it's not our war" for two whole years. As for lend-lease, oh thanks for that. Your bravery of lending us a screwdriver while Brits - and Muslims supporting Brits in the front line - were fighting a war.

I live in such a place. Less than a mile away from Midway Airport, in Chicago.. All day, every day.
@@Kyle-jg6un Actually, Concorde flew out of Heathrow everyday back in the late 1970s. We lived just down the road from Heathrow, and mum worked in an office just across the road from the runway. Dad used to drive us to mum's office and we would wait in the carpark for her to come out. Then you would hear the roar from Concorde's engines and feel the pressure thudding on your chest as the aircraft climbed into the sky, pouring black exhaust out behind. Not very environmentally friendly, but very impressive! So that would be every day around 5 pm, and I think one flew out of Heathrow around 11 am each morning as well.

This is a reddit moment for me but it was more like an sr71 than a fighter jet. High speed, very limited turning radius, very limited gs. Still majestic

Yep, I think we have an early 00's european banger.
Great times...
Back when Beckham was at United early 00”s in elementary school the cool kids were rocking this hairstyle 😂
@@messerschmittsreaver, Ronaldo at Milan, Roberto Carlos at Real Madrid, Henry at Arsenal, Davids in Juventus... man, those times.
Looks like I'm not the only one who came here after watching soccer videos lol
You forgot to *check* the thing that we miss the most: the concorde. :(
the concorde a legend i miss it it will never be seen again 😢😢😢
I was sadly never alive to see one of these magnificent birds, but I imagine they were a sight to behold in their time.
The way that kid goes from happy to serious is like the start of a horror film.
yes i notice that its like he see something scary or some 1 he afraid of
Osimon proberly thought shit I didn't set the car alarms off Concorde did lol
I think the neighbour is thinking the kid has set off the alarm but booting the ball against the car
Osimon idiot
The kid getting camera conscious at the end is the most endearing thing! Such an innocent time, before the internet sullied our lives
Don't blame the internet. It has brought the sum total of human knowledge to the immediate reach of each and every one of us. Social media apps.... well, that's a whole 'nother discussion.
@@blujay9191 yeah, I luv, Wikipedia
@@blujay9191 All started with the internet. Great resource, but it's poison
Yet here you are.
hurr durr past was best, internet bad, amirite? Why is every video from before 2005 filled to the brim with sad boomers wearing rose coloured contacts?
this is the most iconic Concorde video to my family
The last few sec emotion of the kid was deep, it means a lot
Back when CZcams was short and snappy straight to the point
The fanct that the roar of the Concorde engines made a car alarm go off is just incredible!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤣🤣
It is so weird to look into the past like this and see something so futuristic!
In 2000 if you have this kind of hairstyle you'll become a campus crush.
Now only lesbians still wear this cut. I saw one with it a few days ago.
@Thee Profit I swear to god I saw it.
@@davidbrakefield2362 😂
@@davidbrakefield2362 damn looks like you've find yourself a rare Pokemon. Have you tried catching it?
@@whitecunt6903 Theres no points for that one.
This video is 20 years old. Let that sink in...
What an unforgettable moment! I hope all is well with the two of you!
I remember being at school as a ten year old in 76 when the first concord took off from Heathrow and the whole school went onto the sports field to watch, then 20 years later in 96, we used to watch it from the roof of a factory on the A4 Bath road ! A mere 200 metres from the runway !😮😄
Same
Andy hope all is well and you’re still kickin butt
You forgot the E and the en of concorde
Cool
@@warthunder334likechallenge5
Thanks for that, i can sleep easy again 🙄😆
I remember the first time I saw Concorde, I was in a pub garden near Heathrow in the summer of 1976. It made its noisy journey overhead and everyone in the garden cheered and clapped. Wonderful! 😊
🧢🧢🧢🧢
We used to work in the city and 11am every morning (in its heyday) we used to hear it take off, so good. Shame it came to an end.
What pub?
@@Professionalfailure The Ailsa Tavern, St. Margaret's near Twickenham.
But after it crashed :(
Wow!! Love old CZcams videos. The sight and sound sent shivers down my spine. ❤
This feels like a video shot in 2023 made to feel shot in 2001 so much it hurts
I like how the guy who was already holding the camera perfectly is like "oh here it is, let me quickly drop and shuffle the camera in my hands for 10 seconds and nearly miss it"
What are you talking about?
@@kirkhamandy no, I very much read the description. It's called a joke but I appreciate your input.
You got to be speedy to catch a supersonic aircraft 😉☮️
I agree with creamy.. this comment is absolutely pointless
@@VampireDrip yeah lol that's why I said "nearly". He definitely got it, fantastic end result
When french and brits working together, they making art ;)
They had no choice. This thing was a commercial failure but they had to operate at a loss anyways to avoid paying out to treaty agreements
Yes, it can work, unusual and nice to see.
@@kishascape it wasn’t a failure in terms of engineering and at the end of the day, that’s all we look back on. No one looks back at Concorde and goes, what a money pit, we look at it as an achievement of what we managed to do, almost like the moon landing in a way, not because we need to, because we want to
@Kilo Byte still did it tho, man made a super sonic passenger jet, no matter if it’s for the rich or poor, they still did it
I would have liked to see it take off at least once :/
