1. And yet we are still being charged for overweight baggage...
2. Atlantis looks like it's humping the 747.
3. Powered up the engines using what for fuel?
4. Imagine if there was a stow-away in the orbiter, and during descent for landing, they powered up the orbiters main engines at full throttle, and all you see in the window is troll-face. I don't know why that thought just entered my head but god damn would that be hilarious if someone edited a video like that lol, Fake can still be hilarious.
5. Ouch, the 747's reverse thrust is so friggin loud.
6. cái j thế nhỉ
7. Well, then, I suggest you kill yourself 500 times. For what it's worth.
8. It really is pretty small. It weighs just over 88 tons
9. I hope you never delete this video of the space shuttle
10. Tập Đoàn Cargo -- USA ( 0938914368) là tập đoàn hàng đầu về lĩnh vực vận chuyển hàng hóa quốc tế với chi phí thấp
11. Cool!
12. original comment.
13. yes, because a space shuttle is more important than 5 hundred human lifes.
14. I wonder what's the salari of the captain. hmmm
15. everything about this is so wrong, but extremely cool.
16. so much win.... epic.
17. sweet! i saw that plane at an airshow.
18. well, welcome as the third person to reply with the exact same answer. And no, im not a complete retard. I do realize that humans are more important than money. All i tried to say that this pilot is probably used carrying cargo, so this is a huge responsability - as the thing he is carrying is a friggin space shuttle. I think i shouldve written that in the original comment as it came out wrong. I do agree with you. Have a nice day :) 
19. Yes, a huge responsability. But, that should be absolutely NOTHING compared to having the responsability for a passenger jet, no matter the size. Human beings is always a much greater responsability than simply money. You know if I was the captain on that aircraft, I would feel more responsable for my co-pilot, instead of that big piece of metal on top of my head.. Just my opinion..
20. millions of dollars in his hands tho.
21. out of 1000 pictures, you'll only get 10 perfect ones. common saying among photographers.
22. Photoshop loool
23. how many pictures did u get there buddy ?
24. That is nothing compared to 500 people.
25. too much of shutter sound.....
