Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
Rota is lower at the front, hence you approach from the side and not the front.. not seen a chopper one for a long time  |

Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
I don’t quite understand how he got hit by a blade, it seems like he had plenty of room.. can anyone explain?

Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
Pretty weird, because looking at the video I would have thought that he was still clear from the rotors by at least 30-50 cm, if not more. But from the rotor-induced cranial debridement it's pretty clear he was hit straight in the dome  |

Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
My first reaction was that was a shooting, then I read the comments and I realised I know fuck all about helicopters.  |

Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
Apparently most of yall have never seen a fucking helicopters blades. They're so heavy they literally bend downwards. That's why even in movies you see ppl walk up bent over the hunchback of Notre dame. This guy wanted to look cool for his Instagram video and oh boy did he.

Re: Hit in the Head by Helicopter
Yes pretty simple. Them metal blades are heavy, and gravity affects everything, especially heavy things. Put 2 and 2 together now  · |
