I saw this on the news the other day, but couldn't find the video online.

Amazing capture for sure.

I'm sure he needed a change of pants after that.

Easy for me to say but I'm wondering why he didn't abort the take-off.

Yea, or turn about 90 degrees to the right.

Wow! I tried to get that brief glimpse of his water rudders, I don't think they were down. He appeared to be attempting a right turn at first and the tail rudder didn't do the turn as he built speed?
