Amazing video of 747 lifting in place in extreme wind conditions - 1080P HD Add Video

Published on May 24, 2012 by CaptainHarlock999 This 747 is sitting in a boneyard in Mojave, CA awaiting scrapping. On May 23rd, 2012 the area experienced extreme winds of 70+ miles per hour due to a low pressure zone. Without the weight of its engines, the slightly tail heavy 747 tries to take to the skies one last time. The next day the plane was found to have also rotated about 45 degrees from its original position. The same wind storm damaged many rooftops, cut power and sent huge clouds of sand and dust billowing into the sky. Mojave will occasionally experience this type of wind storm due to geography. --Mike UPDATE: Well it's gone viral...boy that's a lot of hits. And I am laughing at all the commentators that think this is fake. :)
