Jets, Hyrdoplanes and Busted Ear Drums.
Normally I wouldn't bother with going to such an event as Seafair, but since we live right next to the lake, it was easy to take a stroll down to see what all the excitement was. Saturday we checked out the loud as fuck Blue Angels fly over head. It was pretty exciting, kind of scary and deafening. Sunday we wanted to check out the hydroplanes, I never realized how fast those suckers could go. We stayed to check out the last Airshow of the weekend. Mostly little planes doing big tricks, which was entertaining enough, then a giant jet came and blew the show away. Not only did the speed of this thing amaze me but then it just hung in the air, like a UFO. Floating in one spot, and turning like a helicopter would. They did this for what seemed like 5 minutes straight. I immediately called my dad to tell him about it. He said "yeah, it's one of those Harrier jets, I watched it on TV". I'm sure it still wasn't as cool as seeing it in real life. It was kind of creepy to think that they can do that. I found a video. Enjoy.
