Whats the problem? He had like 10 feet. Rolling Eyes

I'm guessing he was on full afterburners trying to generate as much lift as quickly as possible once he realized just how bad his situation was.

That 10 ft seems like 2 inches when your moving like that

You can see him give it full throttle half way through his split S manuver by the black puff a smoke, his engine speed may have not been enough, he dropped farther down than he should have and when he realized it and gave it full power it bogged the engine for a split second which was the puff of smoke. I'm sure he was saying shit shit shit shit shit the whole time though cause I know I would be Laughing

A little bit of pilot error most likely but luckly his reactions were quick enough to save himself and the plane
