Danger Zone

Update: Sadly, I've just read that the Grumman F-14 Tomcat which was made famous by Tom Cruise in Top Gun (or should I say it made Tom Cruise famous), has been retired from active fleet duties for the USNF, and will be decommissioned entirely in September. Definitely one of the sexier planes in the US inventory, it really made me want to be a defence force pilot, until I found out that we only flew F/A-18s.



Whenever I see a motorcycle do a wheelie, I think instantly about that scene from Top Gun when Tom Cruise is riding his bike next to the run way...


So there was this motor cycle stopped at some traffic lights near Roma street station and I snapped off a quick pic, I then motioned with my hand for the guy to pull a wheelie, thinking "nah he's not gonna do it..." But he gave me a thumbs up! Awww yeah! Thanks Dood whoever you are!

Revvin' up your engine

Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension
Beggin' you to touch and go

Highway to the Danger Zone
Ride into the Danger Zone

Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the track
And shovin' into overdrive

Highway to the Danger Zone
I'll take you
Right into the Danger Zone

You'll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You'll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go

Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity

Highway to the Danger Zone
Gonna take you
Right into the Danger Zone

Highway to the Danger Zone
