Why didn’t you show what the inside looked like?

Really impressive flying. I had a wonderful experience in the early 1970s of flying much larger USAF Sikorsky H-3s search and rescue helicopters, with two pilots, a flight mechanic and two pararescue guys, for 2 and a half years in Iceland out of Keflavik Airport. Watching these guys landing on the really small helipad by the lighthouse is simply incredible. Absolutely fantastic to watch! Makes me wish I was a few decades younger...

now I have already fallen three times from this rock

I can watch this over and over and over and over... and every time, I'm overwhelmed.

I spent a couple of months in Iceland in 1984. It is Very windy there all the time. You’d get tired of the wind if you aren’t from a windy place. I dare say you wouldn’t want to spend a month at this lighthouse.

que pasada seria trabajar ahi ufff, se repira calma y majestuosidad

I cannot believe they scaled the side of that when it was originally built! Helicopters were not common place and fairly new.

Have been there many times -- in flight sim. It's my favorite destination because of the challenge. Don't know if the pilots that go here are fantastic or its easier in real life than it looks but it's exceedingly difficult in flight sim even with VR. Anyway, nice vid, enjoyed.

Why is that terrible elevator music playing the whole damn time? Makes the video unwatchable unless you mute it. Not everything needs cheesy looping hold music over it.

Thank you for this great video!

One week on that nope would feel like an eternity.

Phantastic job! You have my deep respect. I recently listened to an audiobook from Yrsa Sigurðardóttir. In the story one woman and three men are brought to Thridrangar with a helicopter in order to do some repairs on the lighthouse. Their names are Heida, Helgi, Toti (!) and Ingvar (!), sorry if spelled wrong. Maybe your video helped for inspiration ;-)

This is amazing. I'd totally live there, but the helipad and walkway are super sketchy. But.....what does it look like inside? It'd be neat if it had a lower level dug into the rock. I just need a studio apartment setup, a generator, a mini fridge, my cat, and a grill.

All that and you can't build a small walkway from the helipad to the building?

would be nice to see more inside

To bad you didn’t get the whole light house on camera from a far away shot. It would of been a great shot
