You cannot pay me enough money to get on a helicopter.


I got the opportunity to take multiple flights when I was a summer intern back in 1982. It was fun as hell, but yes, they are dangerous.

They are the motorcycles of the air.

Why not just operate a drone man? No need for this.


Range, speed, ability to to get certain shots are fast becoming less of an issue but current FAA regulations on drone use still make it very problematic.

Reportedly now a bus full of reporters has also wrecked on its way out to cover the helicopter crash site….


So a bus crash led to a helicopter crash which led to another bus crash?

At 0:08, it appears that the helicopter begins "backing away" from the bus scene...does this make sense if the tail rotor dropped? Is the helicopter moving in reverse that swiftly? Or is it just an illusion and the camera is panning out?
