SAINT MARTIN: AIRPORT TAKE OFFS AND LANDINGS
The landings and take offs at the Saint Martin Airport or Sint Maarten Airport in the Caribbean are really close to the shore. It s called SXM or Julian, and it has it s roots as a military base. You d never build and airport this close to a road under normal circumstances. Right beside the landing strip is Maho Beach. Here you can get blasted by the Boeing 747 jet and Large Airbus and other planes as they land and take off. Particularly seeing the large KLM planes landing just a few meters overhead is wild. We didn t feel like we were in danger, but there are many signs saying it s dangerous to stand next to the fence. For us, that was half the fun. It s kind of funny to watch all the Bros and Bikini girls on the beach fleeing from the amount of sand and rocks shot back onto the beach with everyone sunbathing. If you hold the fence and close your eyes, you can get blown dry from the jet engines as they take off. I actually shot this video in HD on my iPhone of all things. My camera had been stolen and it was all I had left. Regardless, Not my worst travel experience. It all turned out pretty great! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ϟ My Camera Gear ϟ Sony Alpha a7S Digital Camera: http://geni.us/MyCamera Sony 16-35mm FE F4 ZA OSS: http://geni.us/Sony1635mm Sony 55mm F1.8 Sonnar T FE ZA: http://geni.us/Sony55mm Sony FE 90mm f/2.8-22 Macro G OSS: http://geni.us/Sony90mm Rode VideoMic Pro: http://geni.us/RODEMic SanDisk Extreme PRO 64GB SD Card: http://geni.us/SanDiskPRO PD Capture Camera Clip: http://geni.us/PDClip PD Capture Lens Kit: http://geni.us/PDLensKit PD slideLITE Camera Strap: http://geni.us/PDStrap PD Rain Shell Cover: http://geni.us/PDRainShell 3 Legged Thing Carbon Fiber Tripod:: http://geni.us/Tripod Glidecam HD-2000 Steadicam: http://geni.us/Glidecam DJI Phantom 3 4K Drone: http://geni.us/DJI4K ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ♥ Friends ♥ Special shout out to Luminous and Wild (Rachel Barrett) for the help in this vid! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ☎ Say Hi Here: ✧ Snapchat: kickthegrind ✧ Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/kickthegrind ✧ Tweetz: http://www.twitter.com/KickTheGrind ✧ Facebook Fanpage: http://www.facebook.com/KicktheGrindTV ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ✯ Experiences over Possessions ✯ Kick the Grind ✯
