I was waiting for it to all go horribly wrong. Fortunately it doesn't.

Is it really that bad?

No worse than my first hovering attempt (or even my second! or third!)

Mind you, the hordes of people watching me in amazement and disbelief were safely ensconced in a tower!

Cheers

For the sake of others... take his licence away!

As said above, people like that give the industry a bad name!

That must be some mental desease like BSE or somthing like this.
I hope they took his license after that.
Nobody can tell me that this was calculated risk.

Always happy landings
