Damn that video is crazy. Sad news

Holy hell. Helicopters are fricking scary man.

That’s terrifying. I found it really strange how the fella recording was so distraught until he remembered he got it recorded on TikTok

If I'm going to crash in a neighborhood, I'd rather be in a helicopter where you can attempt to auto-rotate down.

Loss of tail rotor effectiveness it seems. I'm shocked anybody survived that.

Surprised this just now made it to TD.
It happened yesterday morning. TD isn't normally a full day behind.

Reading the comments apparantly there was a shoot out across the street from the crash scene.

That's in the middle of Gunspoint. Not an ideal place to crash.

No kidding. Social media is serious business.

who films a random helicopter flying around in a major city?

Low flying stationary helicopter at 2am in Houston is prime tik tok material

I hope they didn't have to Black Hawk Down that shite to get out.

That is called the death spin for obvious reasons.
Not trying to be morbid but it’s a tiny tiny chance the pilot can gain control once the spin occurs

Apparently there was a shootout across the street while they were doing recovery.
Seriously.

The surviving officer is my sisters neighbor. Really sad
