Helicopter Crashes and Bursts Out in Fire

Jan 5 2009 Sao Paulo, Brazil. A fault in the power turbine shaft, which caused the explosion of the engine 2 and its fragments reaching the engine 1 during a landing approach made this copper to crash on live tv.

It fell 30 meters in height with both engines stopped and on fire.
Of the six people on board, five survived.

That dude's lucky as shit that thing came down so softly. One has a better chance of surviving a chopper malfunction in mid-flight, than with an airplane, so long as the unit stays upright and the rotors aren't damaged, and are able to free-rotate from the air pressure.

Re: Helicopter Crashes and Bursts Out in Fire

Looks like some kind of edit in there. I count one out the door. Where are the other survivors
