Boeings stage high-speed drag race mid-air

The terrifying 'drag race' as UK daily Mirror termed it, was filmed when two Boeings were - one 747 and another 737 - performing dangerous stunts in mid-air at over 35,000 ft.

The video was filmed by the pilot of another plane.

Praveen Sagar, who uploaded the video onto YouTube, said: "Amazing shot taken by my friend Captain Sreekumar from the cockpit of a B777 at 33,000 [ft].

"A B747 at 35,000 ft overtaking a B737 at 37000 ft over Bagdad [sic]."
