We were headed for a hike and first to arrive after a young lady slipped into some fast moving water and drowned in a culvert under a bridge. I think I was 18 - 19 and the girl was 15. We were unable to reach her. That one left a mark.

But that helicopter just about knocked three grown boys off their feet as it came down - the power and the noise was unfreaking believable!
