Tbh i never experienced a 360 in an airplane myself ;-)
I actually get quite emotional seeing all the happiness and thrill you guys bring to people whose path you cross on this journey. Absolutely inspiring, thank you
My father on a safari in Botswana 1974 was very lucky to meet 3 Bushmen. They noticed his cigarettes and wanted to trade.So they gave him a bow with arrows for it. 4 pack’s we’re gone in like 15 minutes 😂 They had never smoked until that moment 😂 This story is still told on birthdays and special family moments after he sadly past away. Told this In honor of Dad ❤
Those Bushmen were beautiful, and both had such radiant smiles.
Thank you all for putting a smile on my face at the start of my day. My admiration of you all is huge. Thank you again.
I love the Bushmen! ❤ It was so nice of you to take them on a flying adventure! 😊👍
This was awesome to see the smiles on their faces. Truly "The Gods must be crazy!" Thank you it made me smile

I don't think Rosita would know that movie. She is too young! But I have seen it. But I remember that classic scene of the coca-cola bottle falling from the sky from a plane.

Absolutely awesome episode. I always love the curiosity of meerkats and the way you opened up a new world for the bushmen who flew for the first time EVER. Precious memories for all. Thank you.
That is the coolest thing ever! How awesome to be able to show somebody their world from the air. I've done alot of flying and I'm still amazed we can do it. I cant even imagine what they were thinking when they've rarely been in a car. I'm sure they've seen planes fly over but never thought they would be in one. I'm sure they will remember this day and the story will be told for many generations. Absolutely incredible you guys!
How wonderful to give these people an experience of a lifetime ! Thank for sharing ! Peace & Love❤️🌸🙏
Those bush people were truly amazing...took to flying really well...Great adventure...beautiful Sling people and aircraft.
Loved this video. So much happiness!. I especially enjoyed James taking the San People for an introductory flight, Thanks James. Had a smile on my face the entire time. Thank you Bambi for bring much needed joy to this world.
Yep, that statement that was made about the Bushmen also known as the San people being one of the oldest tribes in the world is very true. As a South African I can confirm there are many caves all over the Southern parts of Africa, that have their ancestors rock drawings that was carved in the rocks, thousands of years ago. They are small of stature and their incredible knowledge of edible plants, herbs, trees, etc, are simply mind blowing. Unfortunately they are a dying culture as many of them off have adopted the western style of living, after they have survived on the vast African continent for thousands of years.
Making me miss home 🇧🇼❤. Just watched one of your videos with Mentor Pilot from 2yrs ago and checked your page. I must say, I love your vids and u earned a new subscriber.
Very nice episode. The Bushmen show you how to survive in the bush, and your friend shows him how to fly. Good exchange. And the high wing is at home, or nearly. But then this series of adventures comes to the end. See you next episode.😎🇫🇷
What fun, and what great ambassadors for aviation you are:)
I absolutely loved this video!! I'm gonna really miss these episodes when your journey is over😔😭
Loved these guys ever since The Gods Must Be Crazy.
Always nice to see happiness being shared!🥰
Definitely bringing light to the value of cultural preservation! The bushmen definitely need to have their traditions protected in light of the risks they face from interference and their birth land being taken away from them. So this is awesome! Brining the world of aviation to the Bushmen and bringing the Bushmen to the world!
Wow that was fantastic, seeing the local San people, I was holding my breath on their behalf !!!!!!!!!!"
Happy people, making others happy too. Enjoying life. This will make your lifetime memories. Loved watching this one and your entire journey. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Very simple and happy life ….that the big secret…of same people!zero stres!
A complete joy thanks!!! 🥰
How stunning!!!! I love watching these videos, so so much!!
Ils existent encore des personnes de coeur , ça fait un bien magique de voir ces deux jeunes être émerveillés. Un énorme merci !😅
That was so beautiful, guys were happy something they will never forget. Salute you guys
Oh my goodness - I had goosebumps watching this! What great adventures, great people and a great video. Thank you! 🙋🏼♀️🇨🇭🇿🇦
seeing the natives being flown was really moving and beautiful. The wonder and joy in their eyes
Fantastic! No words. You have to see it to believe it.
This is so cool Bambi! I actually lived in Botswana when I was younger as well. I’ve always wanted to meet the Bushman. What an amazing opportunity!
Worth just seeing the smiles on their faces.
How utterly joyous! You certainly captured the magic of Africa.
Hi Rosita, I'm from Cologne, Germany and I'm currently flying around South Africa from the 13th of March to the 17th of April ... I really like your videos ... as I had originally thought about flying my own Cirrus (N246PV) from Germany to Lanseria. But as a single pilot, I decided to take a C182 from here, which I'm now flying from Pretoria to Namibia, then north to the Angolan border, and from there east via Botswana, Zimbabwe, Malawi to Mozambique. So thank you for all your great impressions of the region ... all the various airfields and bush strips, landscapes, people as well as the overall freedom of flying down here are absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to your upcoming videos!

A lovely video!
It is so nice to see people share experiences. A human effort to preserve all cultures and languages will enrich us all. Side note: I can't believe how pretty the young African lady in the plane is.
Amazing story
Always amazing !!! JB from LFPN

Pilot Bambi- Great Video content!
I am a fly in the wall of your adventure and I love it.
The Bushmen are the best people on earth. A Bushmen lady who grew up with my mother helped to raise me. When she died, something in me died, too.

I'm glad I discovered you... I've always loved flying but for now I just get to enjoy it when others are behind the yoke! One day when I'm rich enough I'll start on my PPL! Great video! Lol@ bushmen lunch all over the dashboard 😂😂😂
Waaaaaaaaaaw!
The Gods must be crazy!
Que etnia linda! Vejam como são bonitas essas pessoas!!!!
I love you bambi,,,is beattful ❤❤❤❤
This is the first video about you or flying or indeed "Slings" that I've seen. A little bit confusing without background information. Really enjoying the video though. :-) Edit: Especially seeing indigenous people enjoying themselves flying with you. :-) Sharing experiences like that, them teaching you about food etc, you guys teaching them about flying and seeing the area from above is a big part of what makes life worth living. :-)
leuk zeg !
I never knew Sling could do barrel roll. The gods must be crazy!
🔥🔥
O love you bambi ❤❤❤

The music in the beginning is Somali. Never would I have thought Bambi Vibez to it. Can't blame ya tho it's catchy, especially with Airplanes flying, makes it like the movies😂😂
many have flown, 31 Btn in Namibia was known as the Bushman battalion. They also drank a lot of alcohol, bought Nike shoes and smoked cannibis.
❤❤❤
One of your best video's sofar! What a masterpiece put together! Having fun in the saltpans, kuiering around a fire and having good friends around you whilst being in the Southern tip of Africa. Having fun with the airies, even taking up the San people and showing them the beauty of Flight. This video gave me goosebumps and made my heart beat faster! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Bambi#no 1 you r selfless
Hello. Bonjour les amis 👍😉 .
😂 epic video
This interesting video brought to mind an old book I have, titled "Ox-Team Days On The Oregon Trail", copyrighted1922 & 1932, by Ezra Meeker (1830-1928)... Mr Meeker traveled The Oregon Trail in 1852 and lived long enough to experience an airplane ride in 1924, at the age of 94, from Vancouver WA eastward, courtesy of the Army Air Corps, over the entire route...
Haha At 3:10 “only two Dutchmen in the whole of Europe”. ‘Old Country’ jokes.
My country is absolutetly beautiful... Loving the moment Xii actualy feeling the G-Forces..😅😅
