Joe Rogan Experience #1219 - Bill Burr

do do do do and four three two yes bill burr how are you fella what's going on
see ya good to see
you too thank you very much for taking me up on that flight i'm gonna tell you
what no legitimately
you changed the way i think about la it's really small isn't it it's way
smaller than you think
yeah it's a different thing when you fly over it you go oh this ain't that big
yeah that's there
this is that because what it is i remember when um i was still getting my
license and i was doing a
night flight right which is insane totally different ball game oh i imagine and
uh yeah
because when you're on the ground you're like wow it'd be really easy to see
everybody because
you're looking up and all you're seeing is the backdrop is of the dark sky
right but when you
get up there if someone's below you they disappear into the city so that's what
yeah yeah yeah yeah so
anyway so we were flying back and i trained down in long beach so we were going
along the 710 and i just
see like all these these lights and it was like right there i'm like going up
like this and i go
what's that he goes and the guy the pilot looked over goes oh that's the uh
that's the fireworks from
disneyland and i was like fucking disneyland is right there because in my head
it took like two
hours to get there hour and a half yeah going down the five but it's just like
because you don't look
at miles all you do is look at time when you're out here because there's so
much traffic but it's literally
like oh that's like 40 miles it's not even it's like from hollywood like i i
would think it can't
even be more than 15 20 miles away like anaheim is so close but i just it's
just like
irvine comedy club that's all i think of it's just way the down there
and then you get up in a helicopter and you're like there in like 11 minutes
going
like this is this is ridiculous so um yeah yeah it was awesome dude it was
awesome yeah
flying over malibu when you landed on the top of that little hill there with
the picnic table yeah
dude that was funny i set it down nice i was a little nervous i'm like all
right don't don't
this up with joe here because he's gonna be like bro you know he was all right
when he was flying
when he went when the big part when he went to land he wasn't that good but uh
it was smooth and
then the apocalypse now we're going through the canyons that was awesome man
yeah those are um
i get it those are fun that's it's a uh it's a lot of fun and you know i i fly
mostly with an
instructor because i got the kid and everything but every once in a while you
got to go out by yourself
just so you know you can do it but um i also um i'm actually over to overdue to
do it but i always
go out and i do like the auto rotations and he'll just sort of chop i'm flying
along he'll just chop
throttle and like it's just it's just rolling the rpms i mean rolling the
engine down not the rpms
the engine down and then you immediately have to pick a spot you know and
sometimes you know the
lower you are you know it becomes literally what you the first place you look
is where you're putting
it it's really crazy but um or where you would where you would explain to
people what you're
talking about you mean crash landing that's what auto rotation means yeah it'd
be basically if
you had some sort of uh failure problem yeah engine failure whatever so like
when you're flying along
and the engine's working it's drawing air into the disc and that's what creates
lift but when uh
when you go into an auto rotation um it's it's the air rushing you're using
gravity bringing the uh
the helicopter down using that air like almost like a fan to keep it going so
and there's a critical
point where if you let the main rotor go too slow that's why the low rpm
horn comes on which is just a nauseating sound uh if you let it go too low that
when it gets to a
point where if it's spinning too slowly no matter how fast you drop you can't
get it going again
fast enough to create and you're basically at that point you're in something
that's no longer able to
fly your uh your instructor skylar is that what his name skyler uh pointed out
something i didn't know
that they have to redo those things like every x amount of miles they rebuild
every hours yeah yeah it's uh
well they have like there's all this maintenance along the way they're
incredibly maintained
because i'm sure you noticed if you read the comments all people talk about is
dying in aviation
it's like you're like oh that's how entertainers die it's like no it isn't they
overdose if you really
looked at the graph they're on the ground completely safe overdose car
accidents it's almost always
overdose drinking yeah and shit like that and it's just like that's mainly how
you die like the amount of
people that are up there every day and nothing happens it's it's you know but
there is the you
know the the fly in the ointment is that there's there are particularly at the
private level there
are knuckleheads out there like there's people like i think every time i get in
i'm always thinking like
am i gonna you know i don't want to die today so i i go over all of a whole
bunch of shit and you know
especially if i'm gonna fly solo i have the whole flight i have all my options
on you know where i
could land you know if i had a problem like that's what you're supposed to do i
look at weather reports
i do all of that shit and what happens is guys get more and more confident and
their pre-flight is they
they kind of look oh it looks pretty clear and then they go out there and uh
you know this you know
this there's there's people who go up knowing that they can die and then there's
other people
up there who just like magnum pi and they want to fly by waterfalls and shit i
mean those guys have
more fun but uh it's you know there's definitely um those are the people that
you know you're
supposed to fly there's like two envelopes you're supposed to fly within the
envelope of what
you're flying and then you know your skill set so you don't fly into this like
you know like if the
if it's too windy or whatever i'm just like i'm just not going right even if i
could handle it it's
like i'm not gonna have fun up there you know riding it out and just you know
let the wind do what
it wants to do and don't fight it and you know make sure you know you're not
flying too fast all you
do is slow down you know um but you know it's it's there there are elements of
that but like
if you look up there versus what's going on down below when you fly i always
say this when you drive
on the highway it's like you're flying in formation you're in the blue angels
yeah with the bunt with
nobody talking to anybody you have no idea what anybody's gonna do people are
texting they're on
medication they're hung over they're suicidal what the they're doing you know
and then on top of that
you got to look out for the guys splitting lanes on the motorcycles and shit um
it's pretty amazing
how few accidents there actually are there it is it is and when i fly the robinsons
they get a bad rap
saying they're not safe because they look at the amount of crashes that they've
had but it's b it's
because it's a helicopter you can afford so it's inherently a low hour uh pilot
and if you look at
it it's most of the time it's not it's not the the helicopter it's the it's the
person flying it
um which is why you really have to be on it like you you you can't um it's it's
just not something
uh um i don't know how to explain it it's this weird thing where your your
level of enjoyment is
way higher if you're if you're riding in it you know what i mean if you're the
person flying the
whole time you have your life and other people's lives at hand so that you're
not really oh look at
that oh look at that look at that like i'm also like you know thinking things
of like you know when
we were flying through that canyon thinking that i'm looking you know knowing
where the wires are
and where the road is and because that's all trees so it's gonna be the road so
there's those
you know when you're kind of going around a bend you know there's certain like
altitudes and stuff just
it's it's boring but it's just stuff that you're always thinking that um you
know i imagine like when
you fight there's that you know i know a lot of it's like instinct and stuff
but there's these things
that you just don't do you know what i mean i don't know anything about
fighting i was heard in
boxing you don't lead with an uppercut it's just it's just things you don't you
see a lot of guys
like when they go to take off they do this thing like the nose down attitude
like i was taught not
to do that because why do they do that because it looks cool i don't know why
they do it i mean
you're supposed to like i was taught you're supposed to keep it level so that
way if you have a problem
you know you you're already in the right attitude to just immediately enter an
auto like now if i'm
i'm fucking nose down and if i'm too far to the ground i'm just gonna fucking
go right into the
ground um i don't know but i mean i'm still like totally a novice i'm coming up
on 200 hours so i
don't know a lot but i'm super super super super fucking cautious and uh i i
make sure i don't go too
long without doing auto rotations i used to hate them and now i actually really
like them um it was
sort of the way it was explained to me i didn't get it until one day i just
thought about it and then i
got it and i was able to lock into it because it's it's the same inputs if you
were going in for a
landing but they broke it down to like four steps like it was low rpm you know
lower collective
gentle aft cyclic you know uh look at your trim strings you know air was a trim
trim airspeed rpms
and just fucking doing all of this and the reality is is just like it's the on
right pedal jesus christ i
forgot that right pedal so it's all the same it's all the same input if you
were going in for a landing
so all i do anytime i hear the low rpm is i just do that and then i'm locked
into it
and then i'm just watching my then i can just watch my rpms and at this point i've
flown enough where i
kind of know where i'm in trim which basically means you're not like grabbing
and you're kind of
going straight and then you can kind of like pick out your spot and then it
becomes fun is what's cool is
you can do like 180 autos you can turn around and what i do like about it is
when you come down to the
ground is you can bleed off all of your airspeed that forward motion that's
gonna fucking kill you
and as long as you don't up and flare and go back up and then drop like a you
know you know it's kind
of like a hockey stop is the way it was described to me just level it out and
right as you go to drop
you pull like that and these guys land them like daisies and stuff it's it's
really amazing i'm not as
good as that but like i i will do it where you know worst case scenario you
know i might like ah
fuck like get a little bit of a bump yeah but i'm gonna be all right so um yeah
i don't know now
there's probably a bunch of people saying i don't know what the fuck i'm
talking about which admittedly
you know i still think there's a lot of i need to learn about stand-up so as
long as you go into
things like that um you know well the the fact that you're doing it and the
fact that you're learning
a new thing that's really difficult to learn don't you think that that's good
for your brain
no i am a big believer in constantly learning it's why i like you as a person
because you're
constantly like you're not the joe i knew three years ago in a good way you're
like you you learn
all of this you know when i first met you you weren't hunting uh you were into
marsh that was
thing you you were two-dimensional you were which was amazing because everyone
was just a comedian you
were this taekwondo champion uh stand-up guy and then and then since then you've
added all like the
guests that you have on the fact that you're able to like talk to him and stuff
is because you
