Soaring Videos Wanted!

Herb-

Germans cannot rap. I wish Americans couldn't either, but at least we do it better than the Krauts. Not saying a lot, as I think all rap is pestilent.

You aren't too good at humor, either. Is there such a thing as a German Stand-Up comic?

I mean, one who hasn't starved to death looking for a second gig.

OK. This is the only rap I like. Google Brian Williams Rap for more like this.

The final punch line is not too bad.

Just thought I would point out that stuff like this is one of the reasons that young people like myself are not always drawn to soaring. Just because you may not personally like rap doesn't mean you should call is pestilant or bombastic. I understand it's a generational thing but videos like what Herb posted are what will make soaring appealing to young people. They are exciting and funny evan if the musically lacking in some ways. This excitement and fun is what draws new people young people to soaring.

I've seen young people in this decade having fun and learning to fly in well maintained Schweizers. To be honest, Schweizers should be part of a promotional video about soaring in the USA.

Anyone have the link to Gary Boogs doing a loop in a 2-33 near a ridge? And his videos of two young people in the backseat of his 2-32 capture the fun of soaring.

This clip makes a 2-33 look good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L965h2jcQZY

Otto Waalkes, Mike Krueger, HaPe Kerkeling, plus a whole bunch of more contemporary ones ... Of course, their humor is tailored to the German audience.

About the German soaring rap video: You viewed it and are talking about it - mission accomplished! :-)

Thanks Uli, I was hoping for you to chime in. As long as we get people talking about soaring, we win. And really, at the next Seniors contest they should recreate that French dancing video.
