Rx Trojan: Obviously you're acting like a moron after that no life loser adamwolf started posting his homemade pathetic shit crap clips and hoping that he would put you in his episode IV of pure crapness. This is where we find the stereotype of the typical fat american. By you posting some shit like 7th!!! just so you could get attention somehow is like most of the other idiots in this site. So sad.

And about this video, suck shit to all those idiots that died in the Concorde, obviosuly in order for them to be travelling in such a plane they had to be rich stuck up bastards, who needs people like that? I hope they all burned to death with an unimaginable pain.

What makes you think that the plane was full of businessmen?
The Concorde was a commercial airliner, not a private aircraft, means the people onboard were ordinary men, wimmen and children.
Stop being such an asshole.

And btw, why was it supposed to end there? i am pretty sure the clip should have lasted longer, atleast untill ground impact.
The clip did not say what the plane hit and how many cassualties.

(From Wikipedia)
Air France Flight 4590, registration code: F-BTSC, crashed in Gonesse, France, killing all 100 passengers and 9 crew on board the flight, as well as four people on the ground.

The crash was caused by a titanium strip that fell from a Continental Airlines DC-10 which had just taken off about four minutes earlier. This metal fragment punctured the Concorde's tyres which then disintegrated, and a piece of rubber hit the fuel tank and broke an electrical cable. As a result, fuel leaked out which caught fire. The crew shut down engine number 1 in response to a fire warning, and were unable to raise the gear. With engine number 2 surging and producing little power, the aircraft was unable to gain height or speed, lost control and crashed into a hotel.

Concorde had been the safest working passenger airliner in the world according to passenger deaths per distance travelled, although the Boeing 737 fleet acquires more passenger miles and service hours in one week than the Concorde fleet acquired in the course of its entire service career. The crash of the Concorde was the beginning of the end of its career.

The accident resulted in a programme of modifications to Concorde, including more secure electrical controls, Kevlar lining to the fuel tanks, and specially developed, burst-resistant tyres.
