The instructional portion of this section is in violation of Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information of WP:NOT, under subsection 4, "Instruction Manuals". Step-by-step instructions are considered unencyclopedic by official policy, but it would be acceptable to reword it in a less instructional tone ("The person to perform the barrel roll approaches a jump with both hands held at shoulder level, then throws his or her right arm toward their left hip", etc.). ~ Eidako 02:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Ugh, serious business and all that jazz, right? If you have a problem with it try fixing it yourself. I wonder if there's a wiki somewhere that IS an "indiscriminate collection of information". -- 64.246.116.255 01:08, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
The combat manuever described has a link to overshoot but the aviation definition of overshooting, as it says is to abort a landing. Which doesn't make sense, so either the definition of overshoot need to be adjusted or the link should go, because it's just confusing. Atzel 18:49, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Done, I've removed the link. Armanalp 18:16, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
DragoonWraith 05:17, 1 May 2007 (UTC): OK, so we all (er... Internet nerds like myself) know that the phrase "Do a barrel roll!" became famous after Peppy shouted it at the beginning of Star Fox 64, and that the phrase has been used in a myriad of situations on the Internet; it is, in fact, an Internet meme. But there's no information about that here. Do A Barrel Roll redirects to the list of Star Fox characters, to the Peppy section, which does mention that the phrase has become a popular Internet fad, but that can't be in the Internet Meme category (unless you can categorize redirects? I've never tried it). So, does anyone have any information about the meme or how it got started (seeing as Star Fox 64 came out in 1997, it seems likely that it only became a meme later) or anything like that?
Interestingly, the folks who watch the pokemon wikipedia entry seem to have sworn a blood oath to prevent the mudkip meme from entering their fiefdom. Why is the barrel roll meme ok here but the mudkip meme not ok there? Cratylus3 18:56, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
Been waiting SO long for this article. Thankyou for finaly making it, we need to add the mudkip meme into the mudkip article now. EDIT: wow it's been here 2 years and I never saw it before!-- 194.80.204.29 15:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
I think "Do A Barrel Roll" originated on YTMND before it found its way to 4chan. The first reference on YTMND is here: http://ytmnd.com/sites/profile/1336, which was posted on 4/28/2004. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.86.26.15 ( talk) 18:49, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
I think "Do A Barrel Roll" is not a notable enough meme to be worth mentioning in this article. Unlike other memes with Wikipedia articles, such as Numa Numa, there's no mention of "Do A Barrel Roll" from any reputable sources ( YTMND wiki doesn't count) Thomsonmg2000 ( talk) 22:25, 14 July 2008 (UTC) Go to Bungie.net, click the flood.

the meme not mentioned here (which is the only (!) reason I would EVER IN MY LIFE have heard of a barrel roll being a thing is one reason I would never donate to Wikipedia... (the other is Wikipedia not being politically neutral, of course) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:871:25C:680F:E164:8EB4:D649:D9F2 ( talk) 22:49, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
The YouTube video of the 707 barrel roll, while difficult to see, doesn't seem to show the craft with it's nose "at 90 degrees to the general path of flight" at any point. Is it necessary to be at fully 90 degrees, as described, at some point before the maneuver is considered a barrel roll? 65.174.156.30 ( talk) 17:38, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Aileron roll includes an 'execution' section describing, generally, how one performs an aileron roll. Would a similar execution section be appropriate her for the barrel roll? 65.174.156.30 ( talk) 17:43, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
I have a bit of understanding about these things, and can provide some citations. The article as it stands seems a bit confused abou what exactly a barrel roll is, and the various types of barrel rolls.
Typically, a barrel roll is any roll executed with both lift and roll vectors. In plain English, the roll is combined with the upward motion,(pulling back on the stick), to achieve a helical flight around the relative forward motion. This can be in a turn, or straight flight.
In air combat maneuvering, the term barrel roll usually refers to a maneuver designed to slow the relative forward motion, forcing an attacker to overshoot. The aircraft in such a roll often ends up completing the roll on the same trajectory. (Compared to an aileron roll, which is nose up 30 degrees, to compensate for lift vector, roll along the plane's axis, and nose back up 30 degrees to level.)
A barrel roll attack is the 3D equivalent of a 90 degree turn. It involves a much greater use of lift and much higher G's, being a rather violent maneuver.
A lag displacement roll is also called a high-G barrel roll, and is used to displace the aircraft's position during a hard turn, achieving a better firing solution. This is probably one of the most violent maneuvers. Info can be found here, http://library.thinkquest.org/3142/manuv.htm , or some of the sources in the ACM and BFM articles. Zaereth ( talk) 01:15, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
It might be worth mentioning a canopy roll here. This is typically a roll over the top of an aircraft to get on the other side, although it is sometimes used just to provide lateral displacement. Barrel roll attacks and high-g barrel rolls rely on such lateral displacement to place the aircraft from its projected flightpath onto a new flightpath at a different angle, although a canopy roll usually places the aircraft on a new flightpath at the same angle. A true barrel roll will place the aircraft back on the original flightpath. I'll try to locate some references for a canopy roll, but it's usually a military maneuver and so does not seem to be well documented. I'll keep looking.
The animation here shows a canopy roll rather than an actual barrel roll. If someone can make a new animation that shows how a true barrel roll looks it would be helpful. I don't have a clue how to do animations. Zaereth ( talk) 01:17, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
I was under the impression that Wikipedia uses American English. 50.137.201.131 ( talk) 00:26, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
As far as I know, people refer the Aileron Roll as a Barrel Roll probably because the way that container barrels roll. The circular faces would be the front and back, and the lateral face would be the side. Luigithemetal64 ( talk) 16:18, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
