Use the Youtube tags to insert your video into the forum (see the button above - below the B)
Then put the youtube video ID in between the two tags - your video will then be embedded into the forum.

Thanks a lot for the help justin. But I should probably start by creating a youtube account first!

Nice!
Regarding the 'trickery'... they didn't actually tie a line between the two helicopters did they?

If you didn't see that advert, here it is: http://www.climbing.co.za/2014/01/slack ... elicopters

Helicopters are strong in a straight vertical lift, but have very low tolerance for sideways pull.
Pull too hard and they fall out of the sky.

You'd need:
- Two heavy helicopters
- That the pull on the line never exceeds x
- That the pilots absolutely don't veer even a foot too far apart.

I heard that a similar stunt like this went wrong not too long ago.

If you asked me to insure something like this I'd quote the full price of both helicopters!

To give an idea of how quickly the aircraft rolls over with minimal force check the video below. At a push this aircraft could almost pick the boat out of the water, but sideways the boat hasn't gone far at all before the aircraft rolls over.

I've corrected it - you only put the YouTube code in between the 'YouTube' code.
I'll explain better later :)

Nice video and great skills!

Inserting a video:
The url is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTTgF_Aygtg

- You need only take the ID after the '=' sign i.e. sTTgF_Aygtg

So you would put down the following...
