STAY IN YOUR ROCKING CHAIRS BY THE LIVING ROOM FIRE, but don't rock too hard as even in a rocking chair you can tip over and bonk your head.

That's right, death is forever too. Remember there are very few helicopters you can even see your tail rotor while flying. Robinson ain't one of them. If you can't see it, you're just guessing where it's at. Here's a video of a pilot that seemed to forget where his was.

it doesnt take much to bring them down. This happened not far from here nearly a year ago.

Every time I see this I can't believe that the workers underneath the chopper got away uninjured. Unbelievable.

That's pretty damn cool. Can you imagine being the guys on the ground that just lost their plane?

Wow, that video is crazy. It looks like the rotor got caught on the cable - that was attached to the bottom of the chopper.
