A goose almost caused Gisele Bündchen to crash the helicopter she was piloting

Gisele Bündchen is a supermodel, a supermom and, in case you didn’t know, a super helicopter pilot. But when she visited The Late Late Show With James Corden she admitted that flying is indeed for the birds.

Bündchen got her pilot’s license in 2009, while several months pregnant with her son Benjamin. Traveling in helicopters often had made her develop a concern for her safety. She told Corden, “Usually when I take helicopter there is only one pilot and I always wonder, like, what happens if something happens to the pilot?”

Flying with her instructor one day, Bündchen turned to see a goose staring at her. The sight startled her and caused her to yank the controls. “A helicopters is a very gentle machine. … You have to barely touch it.”

Her drastic move made the helicopter bank hard before getting Bündchen could get it back under control. Neither she nor the goose were hurt. And as the old saying goes, “no harm, no foul … or fowl.”

The Late Late Show With James Corden airs weeknights at 12:37 on CBS. Watch clips and full episodes of The Late Late Show for free on Yahoo View.
