- Footage of the Presidential helicopter convoy arriving in New York City at the Financial district Heliport.
First 2 Chinook (or Sea Knight) helicopters arrive with security and personnel, followed by 2 Marine One's (the real one and a decoy) landing. The President then heads into the Presidential Limo (Cadillac One) and the motorcade heads up the FDR Drive.
Fascinating sight!
(Since I had to use high zoom there is some shaking thruout the clip, sorry)
Bro had a red dot on his head the whole time and didn't even know it
I seriously doubt that.
Chevy Purdie keep talking that shit Chevy and they finna come for you too
I was going to say that also!! I bet he had a sniper on a higher building behind him with finger on trigger.bro had perfect position if he was bad guy.no way he would had crossed any of those 27 bridges thou!!!
Obama had a red dot on his head at 10:10 from ma boy.
That’s sad.
Nice video! You can tell how much more gentle the pilot with the president is being.
For those of you complaining about the shaking he probably zoomed in quite a bit so even little shakes seem like big ones..
You were playing with your life that day lmaooo
We knew he was there.
Ok
This is pretty spectacular to see for sure. Gotta be impressed with the Office of the Presidency of the United States.
I will tell you this, if you are that close...up high....with an open window...."somebody" is watching you film this and just waiting for you to grab a candybar out of your pocket too quicky. Lol
Stop talking shit bitch your country ain’t that great
@Nonameone Unnamed Who are you talking about?
@@dollarchange2917 he is talking about the dude taking this video
as long as he doesn´t pull out a TOW out of his pocket he wouldn´t be able to hit anything at this distance
He wasn't that close as you can notice the camera so unstable. That happens when zooming at very very long distances.
I was riding my bike across the Brooklyn Bridget that morning. It was not cool but very loud. The police stopped all traffic on the bridge until the motorcade passed beneath it. When he did, everyone on the pedestrian part of the bridge was cheering. It was cool and very memorable.
The life of a dictator the worst president we ever had are they still just down the hall from what we have now pulling the strings or should I say string all the rest are broken when Biden fell up the stairs trying to board a plane
You were cheering for a winner huh at what point in life where you finally disappointed or haven't you caught up yet
shake or not, it's great footage! cheers
that looks like where I steal my helicopters from in gta
thats EXACTLY where it's at lol
The amount of security for the president is amazing. And it's almost seamless for him. He just makes a call saying when and where he wants to be somewhere and the Secret Service does the rest.
Simply amazing. We rarely acknowledge the thousands of men and women who contribute millions of man hours to the matter of receiving POTUS safely for any given appearance.
1- Is it me or are these guys sound like Russian spies from the Cold War?
2- That is a terrifying spot to be left unchecked by the secret service.
+Serhan Ogan I was going to say it was.But MAYBE it was.We will never know....but to say it was unchecked,,,,,,,,
It could be the Secret Service who's taking pictures.
Deploying snipers at critical points is a regular practice by the Secret Service.
What if they had no idea about the spot?
That's nerving.
dude its in the middle of new york city... you wanned every single person on those hundreds of near by building evacuated for 2 hours or something?
@@SerhanOgan No I saw in a few videos where Secret Service was interviewed and since the last assassination they have upped their game. The President is rarely in open air in the public for an extended period of time without a large, secure perimeter around the whole area. They probably had snipers watching everything. It was probably a rooftop they'd covered. But if they hadn't I'm sure a really good sniper could've taken him or the helicopter out with an RPG.
Привет, друг!
Today 7/11/11 i saw 2 chinooks land near sea-port like above the water.. it was bloody awesome..i didnt know what was going on but it was amazing!!
Thank you for the video, I see you had to fight the wind up so high, but all and all good video. Nice to see something positive in this President!
you gotta realize tho, i bet there was 5+ counter snipers in locations you didnt see. they would have eliminated the threat before he looked down the sights of a scope
Interesting. For whoever doesn't know: the heliport is on the East River. Across the river is Brooklyn. The first bridge to the left (north)
Can you imagine the feeling? Hundreds of men and women carefully synchronizing helicopters, boats, firetrucks, snipers, blockades... all for your security. I'd feel beyond confident stepping out of that helicopter in a suit and tie -- ready to run the world.
Really nice hand held work.
Being president would be the best gig ever. People elect you to office so you can change the country and hopefully the world. Must be such an honor. Congratulations Mr. Obama.
Yeah, the last one. Security is so tight...I have seen the President land here in Chicago. It is beautiful...Really nice...Marine One and Marine Two...Nice..
This vid is very amazing, genuinely fun to watch.
Nice capturing,i cant set away my eyes from this video!!!!!!
In Zimbabwe there's nothing like this Thank God i have seen the different type.
I saw Obama land less than a mile from my house. It's really cool stuff!
Am I the only one that saw the Higgins Helitours location from Grand Theft Auto: IV in that?
+drac00n hahah, Thats a location from GTA IV, true man
Cousin let's go bowling :d
I mean since it’s based on real locations in nyc I would hope so
Never seen a Past President accommodated with such a large Entourage of military armament such as this!! This is totally out of the ordinary!WHAT IS GOING ON??
country needs more people like you
This was the coolest video I have ever seen with this footage! Good Job Man!!!!
They saw you long before you saw Obama.... fascinating video seeing the whole operation play out like that
Sea Knight is not a Chinook. The Sea Knight is the Boeing CH-46 and the Chinook is the CH-47. Very similar but different model.
Nice coverage.
Cool video i love the precision. Thanks for sharing.
If you watch the video really closely, the President was actually on the 3rd helicopter, not the 4th one like they wanted people to think....
I was thinking the same thing! The cameraman must have had a real cute, trustworthy aura about him. :)
A laser site it's not useless even if it passed 50 yards cause with a sniper you can see further more than 50 yards and laser helps pin point better.....
That was pretty cool to watch. Never seen anything like that before.Thanks
cant believe these people were able to be on the roof top in sniper range, great security!
Great footage bro!
good job!! you didd your best. cant ask for more. cudos! thanks dude!!
Beautiful video. God bless America!
That location is a very vulnerable and open to long distance issues
That was a QUICK transfer....lol....they knew (its like their job or something) the exposure there.
Very Good Video!!. Great Job Guys! But Just Letting You Both Be Aware, That Surely There Was A Red Laser Dot On Your Heads While You Were Filming This Footage From The Roof. Thank Goodness You Meant No Harm ;-)
Cool video, of course you know there was crosshairs on you the whole time right?
are you saying the ch-46 is a chinook? the 47 is a chinook the 46 is a sea knight ch46 has 3, ch47 has 4, and the engines are mounted outboard on a ch47 whereas the 46 they are mounted inboard and you cant really see them.
Next time camera with tripod xD
Very nice video brother!!!
17 police motor bikes he travels with style great stuff. i use to live close to a air base 1 time i saw 5 Apaches landing the skills nice
Judging from where the choppers appear in the distance (i.e. from southeast), I believe they come from JFK Airport. I know this is kind of a no-brainer, but my question is: Wouldn't it be more time saving, if the president flew directly from Washington to New York in his helicopter? Distance too far?
You got nothin' on Zapruder. Well done, my over-caffeinated friend.
Don't know where you were watching this at..but I'll bet you weren't alone.
Guys, no sniper could hit this shot with wind factor and the president only appeared for 3 seconds no time to get your shot ready. Secret service know what theyre doing
Looks like you were near Gouverneur and South St. not sure what building though.
Im pretty sure its the Gotham Heliport, which is the busiest and most well known heliport in New York right in downtown Manhattan.
Do these marine helicopters always fly ahead of the Presidents visits from D.C. or are they stored on board the military transport planes and flown ahead of his visits in the U.S.A.
Don't you feel like if someone took the time to report or trace that ridiculous comment you just wrote, SNGVproductions, that you could possibly be prosecuted? Do you even care? Why would you even attempt to make such a statement like that. Our President has a lovely wife and two beautiful daughters and he himself is the most powerful man in the free world. Are you crazy? I'm just sayin......and yes that is a rhetorical question.
Must've been chilly filming up there, but lovely chinooks and are those blackhawks?
Anyway, lovely.
the laser becomes too large and not as concentrated at distances more than 50 yrds, They use high powered scopes.
could you shake the camera a little bit more? it wasn't shaky enough
I wish the person doing this video could hold the camera still instead of shaking it and jumping it around so much!
Thanks for sharing!
president of all presidents is called jesus christ, he saves de world, give him your life today
But looking on the president's car i can see a smoke on the exhaust,was it because of the weather or something?
great point of view!
Great video
where did you film this from? what building or vantage point?
fantastic vedio president is a great man
What building was this filmed from? I saw this from the EmblemHealth building on 32 old slip when it happened
and you were able to record a clear rifle range shot with hand held camera? why was this roof top un secured?
awesome video, thank you for posting
imagine if the camera guy was a snipper..
Look how quickly he crossed. It would be a death sentence to miss that shot.
No lasers (no snipers use them...at all. The range is far to short) and if you really did know any of the secret service personnel that man the rifles you just violated 3 federal laws and 5 regulations. So I hope your ready for that knock at the door.
The car is not a Cadillac. It's a one off built for the secret service.
Awesome Video!!
yes, they are
How did you even know where the Helicopters are coming from...? And how were you even get a CLEAR FREAKING SHOT! Of that angle? I bet they wouldn't even allow you. Or even, you got your way to an easy advantage point that would allow a Sniper to shoot the President or even an RPG to shoot down them Choppers. Well I'd say, C.A.T (Counter Assault Team) or S.A.T (Sniper Assault Team) Were watching you while you were recording it. If you even take out something Dangerous they will freaking shoot you out. Just sayin, :)
To fire a shot that far would be extremely difficult. Wind speed, direction and loss of velocity would play a major factor.
@@jaymesnin world spin to
Pretty sure the helicopter that broke off before the real Marine one landed was an New York Air National Guard chinook. Not one of the presidents Sea Knights
In Sweden, the prime minister travels with public train ^^
dustamir Olaf Palme, the assassinated Swedish Prime Minister would disagree.
Sadly our President seems to be a favorite target of wack jobs and but cases. We seem to have more attempts on the president than most other countries combined which is a scary thought.
@@chrissmith7669 I wonder why...
Urban Departures; maybe we have a higher percentage of mentally ill walking the street with no access to treatment.
also sweden isn't killing people all around the world, less enemies.
They don't have to locate them all in the "huge" city. There's no way you can. You just need to worry about the one's along the route. Even if the guy who shot this video had a .50 cal he would of had to predict the exact moment the President started to walk and shoot before he appeared. The flight time + angle + wind conditions at the President and the fact that these guys were being watched, would make a shot like that all but impossible.
Shaking the camera gives such a great effect to the video
what camera did you use ????????? The zoom in over good.
@RobRuotolo1 Thanks for the info on the choppers!
I am not against this level of security for the President, obviously it's necessary but does anyone know how much it costs on a daily basis? I am just curious.
wow, behemoth security gaps, that you are able to tape the exact moment the copters start rolling in and even catch him getting in the limo.just wow.
one word ........ Tripod!
They are not Chinooks CH46, which has 4 wheels instead of 3
Kenya: Because he's half Kenyan
United States: Because he's American and he's the President
Pakistan: Because it's TH-cam and everyone can watch it
Very interesting. Thanks for the upload.
Why are Pakistan and Kenya the top two locations (under video statistics) for watching this video...?
You had the perfect sniper-spot Meisen! :)
what helicopter is this because i haven't seen it before
Great footage!!!
So someone can stand at the top of a building near the location where the president arrives? So how do they prevent him from using a sniper there?
Continued. I pressed the wrong bottom lol. Is the Brooklyn bridge and the big bridge far away on the right side is the Verrazano.
God bless America
That is a really good vantage point for sniping
What does this helicopter called or a plane
*sigh... back when America was great.
Thanks for sharing.
I wish people could comment about the video and not about everything they love or hate about President Obama.
Im surprised that the roof that the camera man was shooting from (no pun intended) wasnt secured ...the secret service welds down manholes, closes all windows on the presidents routes, advances all locations by at least 24hrs regardless of the significance and clears all roads, so i am surprised the roof or balcony this guy was on wasnt closed down....anyone know why??
Sinpers do NOT use lasers because it telegraphs there position. Google the inverse-square law with regards to using laser sites at a distance. Stop pretending you know what you talking about.
