  • lucky to survive, hate be be the one to tell the captain

  • Thats a routine landing for Sea King pilots :)

  • thats a bad day at work

  • they should design helicopters to be safer than that, especially by now after all these years.

  • Thats why you dont drink and fly

  • Looks like a sea king, it cant be a US carrier.

  • @megaplanefan ummm....Marine one is a Sea King..

  • i bet his words before the crash was "now nice and steady oh ohhh ohhhhhhhh come on baby, BOOOOOOOOOOM.............ah fuck"

  • ahh the good ol' days! i was there when that happened!

  • Seen a similar thing happen in person. Most terrifying. Good effort by the Pilots

  • yup, loss of tailrotor, on short final loading up the power and increasing the tourqe on the tail rotor, a classic time for it to fail. In cruise flight it is almost neutral, but in a hover the tail rotor is heavily pitched. The only procedure to do is to chop the throttles, to loose the tourqe and land. He did a good job.

  • @Guranga93

    LoL

  • It is called the "Persian Gulf" ... correct your video description dude

  • "Y'know what'd really liven this job up? A couple of spins"

    "Hell to the yeah, I can see no possible way this could go wrong"

  • at least they didnt have to clear this pile of shit from the deck

  • Thank God they survived.. They were extremely lucky... Deck crash, impact injury, then possible drowning.. God must have sent an angel that day...

  • I bet he's a Pro at flying a desk....Public Relations Officer (PRO)....

  • proof ac130 is better than chopper gunner

  • @rhinogek C-130 can't land on a carrier though... period...

  • @rhinogek lol

  • Fire wise there lucky it rolled into the sea. 

  • what happened? was it a heavy crooswind

  • Landing on a moving boat in the middle of nowhere, with a little wind maybe, must be damn hard...

  • @jonhaldo That's a fact!!

  • he was one time on the boat

  • lol fail pilot

  • They lost the tail rotor at the worse possible time, transitioning to a hover. Cutting the power immediately would help stop the rotation, but the landing would still be ugly. Hope the crew and pax survived.

  • Hmmm... Should probably have read the description before commenting

  • Hmmm..... I could either laugh and go to he'll because the pilot was like taking it all slow and then decided to make a bug turn or I could feel sorry and make fun of another vid Hmmm....

  • im tired everyone thinks the sea king is the chinook. its retarded. the sea king is a fixed blade not a twin, thanx for having the right info u might do good in the usaf or cfaf, or whatever son.

  • It "seems" that all seven were recovered?

    "Seems"? What the hell does that mean?

    And what does "recovered" mean? Their dead bodies were recovered? Or did you mean they survived?

    Sheesh.

  • damn that is gta shit

  • Good thing it stayted on the...  ...never mind.

  • ahahhahahahahh i cant help laughing im going to hell

  • Haha you are Dead

  • tail rotor jammed up causing the chopper to spin out of control making a crash extrenly possible and tails452 you cant stop one rotor both stop when the enigne is shut down

  • Crash 0702, were you the crewman that broke his arm or the one that dated VanDyke the OS chick from HM-14?

  • Negitave

  • Comment removed

  • This never happens in Call Of Duty! HAHA!

  • T/R failure for sure.

  • Ya, it is.

  • i blame the landing look at the back gear and look at it it spun around or the tail rotor stop or he/she stopped the rotors too early

  • dude its not a break dancing comp just land the thing

  • i think he turned to fast, and maby some wind was involved

    (sorry ofr my english)

  • hmmm........seems likie someone shouldve spent a little more time training in mayport.

  • Lets clear this up first i was in the crash and their was no chief summers saving anyone lives. We all got out on our own. So AD3 get your story straight!!!

  • Chief Summers saved everyone aboard this crash. If u notice at first the cabin door was open,  then as it hits and spins around its closed. It saved everyone. Also you can see him in the water pulling them out from the cabin.

    AD3 Noffsinger

  • Ah good, another expert.

    He lost his tail rotor, jackass.

  • THis was on the USS Cushing DD 985. I served on this ship. Everyone survived, just a few bumps and bruises.

  • Guess you didnt get the whole story a few bumps and bruises isnt what happen to me.

  • and others

  • if I see it right they got into a cortex ring (when u sink to fast, and the blade gets into it's own downwind) so its actually the pilots fault, not the engines...

  • @the4clusters That was TOO FAST?!??

  • @tannalv yeah. hard to believe but true. the final landing approach must be extremly slow

  • @the4clusters I dont know what a cortex ring is???? is it like something out of the lord of the rings???? Note as the aircraft starts its yaw to the right the tail rotor is not turning.Its called a tail rotor failure at which point you cannot overcome the torque of the main rotor which results in the aircraft spinning.

  • @the4clusters this is not correct , as you can see the helicopter starts to spin opposite to the direction of rotation of the main rotor , this means he lost his tail rotor , at this point ( so close to the ship ) there was nothing more he can do , there was no space to do an autorotation landing ...  no downwash , no pilots error at all , technical failure ...

  • @Quattroowner Now that you say that I repeated the video numerous times, and yes, you are right, the tail rotor seems to have failed. Sorry for the wrong statement

  • @Quattroowner

    Also if you watch closely, moments after he begins to spin you can see the tail rotor is not rotating.

  • @zdon25

    Good thing their were no casualties.

  • @zdon25 My dad was actually on that ship when it happened, glad everyone survived.

  • I do believe this also happened on a Canadian Forces destroy?

    im not to sure, but back in 2003-04 when Afghastian started up it was in the Atlantic and its helo had the same problem(s), but then again these birds are like 40 years old(?)

  • once that tail rotor goes there's no chance of a controlled landing and the pilot can only hold on.

    in a strange way everyone onboard was lucky that it happened when it did and not at cruising altitude.

    the same thing happened to an raf wessex in the 80's while over a lake killing everyone onboard.

  • that guy should have had powerthirst before flying...he would have won at everything forever!

  • What they were Thinking

    1-10sec (1)Doing Good Jim. (2) Thanks Bob.

    11-15sec (1) Um Jim Were shaking. (2) This Kind Of Thing Happens All The Time. Don't Sweat it.

    16-19sec (1)-(2) O SHIT 0.o

    20-25sec (1) Jim Did I Ever Tell You That Your A Fuck UP? (2).......ya

  • damn, must be quite a shitty feeling sitting in there

  • failcopter

  • kinda makes you think that heli's are unreliable...

  • cheap ass heli!!

  • ommg:(

  • Sea King fuck yeah.

  • poca costumbre de ver accidentes asi

    son increibles las colisiones y los giros

    xD

  • if he crash and landed like this, its nothing.. but HE DROP INTO THE WATER? omg.. that can make u die.

  • i think he dropped on lower deck

  • i bet he was like "don't fall of the fucking platform!" but then it caught on fire and he was like "FALL OFF THE FUCKING PLATFORM!!!!"

  • @NinjaNO2 That is hilarious.. You should write comedy for a living.. still laughing.

  • lol american technic combined with their stupidness

  • you fail. are u italien cus if you are FAIL

  • lol it's called stupidity

  • nah actually it's not. The tail rotor stalls, causing the helicopter to start to auto rotate. This will happen with even the best pilots in the world if the rear tail rotator stalls on a helicopter. It starts to auto rotate, you my friend may be stupid but the pilot is not. Mechanical failure was the issue, not the pilot dipshit.

  • man... I was critisizing "Frobblo" this is what he wrote: "lol american technic combined with their stupidness" then i said:" lol it's called stupidity"... I was just correcting his spelling I wasn't saying anything about the clip.

  • Just fly helicopters like the Ka-50 or Chinook and the problem is solved =P

  • Yeah that is true, but you have a rotor failure in one of them and you will have just as bad of a situation if not even worse. The thing is in the perfect world everything is ok, but this world is by no means perfect though. Shit happens, but if a Chinook had the same problem, you will be in just as much of a world of hurt as what these guys are haha

  • The tail rotor did not stall, probably a gear box or drive failure. This was not an autorotation either, just a demonstration of what losing anti-torque will do to you, at a critical stage of flight.

    P.s it is impossible for a tail rotor to stall, l.t.e yes, fail yes, you cannot generate a sufficent angle of attack to stall it.

  • You dont happen to be from Mount Joy PA do you????? JW

    But yes thats what I meant though, not in the literal sence that the tail rotor stalled, but in the sence that it loss power and the rotor itself failed to have any power going to it. But yes the angle of attack would be so great that there would be no way the actualy rotor would stall though. But I beg to differ about the auto-rotation though. It started to rotate from the lose of power to the rear rotor. Meaning an auto rotation

  • An autorotation is when the rotor system (main) is driven by the upwards flow of air in a descent, there was no descent, and the engines were running hence the aggresive yaw. Definitely not an autorotation, just a tail rotor failure.

  • Ahh I see, Well you seem to know what your talking about so I'll take your word for it. Just always thought when a helicopter was spinning like that it was always called an autoration. My bad

  • No worries man, take it easy..

  • Hey mountjoy!

    I totally agree with you with the tail rotor drive failure. Im not so sure however that the tail rotor cannot stall. I think I remember during my groundschool that the tail rotor can enter a vortex ring state which in itself is a stall in some description. Not 100% sure just interecting reading.

  • thats horrible

  • lol i build that helicopter in empire earth 1 to destroy submarine :D

  • they arein EE 2 , too

    there only good agains submarines

  • they can only attack subs ^^

  • Seaking is a helicopter from the marine

  • Fake. Seaking is a pokemon and that thing is called a helicopter.

  • did he die?

  • っちゃいましたね。

  • Damn....... I was about to say, "Lucky his chopter didnt do anything else"....... But then the rotor blades force him off the platform. Poor guy.

  • excellent work

  • like a glove

  • 0:25 that looks like smoke instead of fire

  • o:25 that looks like smoke instead of fire

  • Wasn't pilot error. Nothing the pilot can really do when there is a mechanical problem such as the rear rotor ceasing.

  • is that the australian one that crashed

  • the whent out and made it clip something

  • looks like tail failed

  • better get some practise in!

  • looked like the tail rotor when out!

  • my dad was on the cushing from 86 to 1990

  • What is these helicopter used for anyway? ( I dont know a thing about helicopters) is this an attack helicopter or just a helicopter used for tourist landing on a private yacht?

  • This helo is for transportation of personel to ships or any other places the military needs them. Also Its a medium lift helicopter so it can carry loads underneath also.

  • Thanks for the good reply. =)

  • Also the RAF use them for air sea rescue.

  • this looks like a S-42 Sikorsky Helicopter

  • u whore like what AkutsoKurenal said many MILITARY persanal died or injurd in that crash

  • To Muaitokx "You sick fuck. I'll bet many people died in that crash. Go fucking crash into a boat and then skid off into the water. See how much of a NOOB you are"

  • u fukin retard all the crew survived

  • 2002? I thought the Navy phased out the Sea King in the late 90's & replaced it with the "Seahawk"???

  • I was stationed on the Cushing during the early 90's, and there was a similar accident with an SH-60B Sea King Helicopter during that time, where the engine seized up, and it took a dive in the Pacific, so, yes, accidents like this happen, even to experienced pilots.

  • I have about 3 thousand sikorsky hours both as a pilot and a crew chief so believe me they make a great aircraft, and yes everyone survived all crew and the Australian passengers.

  • sikorski definitely doesnt suck. this was pilot error.

    Look back to 1993, when Mike Durant got hit by an rpg round over mogadishu (not the movie- real life here) he flew for 2-3 minutes before it gave up. that would have been more than enough time to set it down and walk away safe if he hadnt been as deep into the city as he was.

    thats incredible, i can guarantee one of my hueys cant do that.

    my point is that this crash was not influenced by the maker, but by an inexperienced pilot.

  • You have no idea what you are talking about that was caused by a malfunction of the tail rotor disconnect jaw, a part on the helicopter that I am sure you have no idea what it is (look it up and educate yourself) not pilot error. Oh and the pilot that ways flying has a few thousand hours so I guess you could say SHE was a little inexperienced!!! I know this cause I was their and know the person flying.

  • i have 2000+ flight hours in the United States Marine Corps, flying almost every piece of rotary equipment available. the CH-46 Sea Knight, UH-1N Twin Huey, and mainly the CH-53 Sea Stallion (a sikorsky bird, and a damn fine one at that)

    So I am educated in the field of rotary aircraft, and the engineering of them, as i served as a crew chief in my enlisted years. So I understand that this was a malfunction (my mistake for not reading the description), but i have seen too many pilots (cont.)-

  • spaz out from the brownout and lose control, and after landing on several carriers, i know that the wind and movement of the ship is sometimes difficult to contemplate. This is why i presumed this to be pilot error, as you can see the bird hesitate before its landing.

    but this is still no reason to condemn sikorsky birds because of one faulty piece of equipment.

    did eveyone survive?

  • i seen a helicopter up close and got to really see how it works. they have to be the most complicated and dangerous pieces of machinery ever. if one thing goes wrong the whole thing will fail. amazing more dont crash.

  • not quite true actually but not far off, it depends what goes wrong, what actions can be taken in the event of something going wrong and the presence of a competent pilot who can recognise the situation with time to act.

  • This is abusive because it uses Arabian Gulf instead of the proper UN-approved name of the PERSIAN GULF.

    Arabian Gulf is a name invented by the wife-beating camel-fucking Arab fucks to take away yet another piece of Iranian/Persian heritage and history.

    Thats why using the A word is considered insulting and abusive by millions of Iranian ex-pats.

  • no offence ment mate but i would be enclined to say who gives a fuck, no hate

  • really can someone tell me how this vid is hateful or abusive plz

  • That happened in the Northern Arabian Gulf. Were all seven passengers recovered alive or dead? Nasty crash.

  • raed the description

  • Hows a helicopter crashing abusive?

  • when you change the name of "THE PERSIAN GULF" thats how it becomes abusive

  • You must not get out much

  • ok, now you have moved from the "i don't know" phase to the "Im talking SHIT" phase ... you can talk to the finger now cause i think you i told you what you needed to know

    Persian Gulf FOREVER

  • Lough Neagh forever! Irish Sea forever!

  • MANNNNNNNNNNN

    if the English started calling the Irish sea "the English sea" and paid all different ATLAS publishers to fabricate this new title, then you'd be yelling "Irish sea forever" FOR REAL

    goddamn it man, you still don't know what im talking about , do you?

  • thats right mate arabian gulf forever :0 :) thats right arabian gulf, WHO GIVES A F**K

  • This video has been FLAGGED abusive and hateful

    Persian Gulf

  • I got off of this ship ( the dirty Cush ) right before this happened. A buddy of mine was the rescue swimmer that went in after them and got them out. All that I can say is bravo Zulu. You did a hell of a job. You know who you are Joe Bob;)

  • interesting comment about the crash i was on board when it went down. I was told it was due to a spring that made the tail rotor fail. How true is this statement i see yours makes alot more sense?

    The fact was it was having problems before it took off to meet the ship for more then 2 hours the mechanics went fixing 1 problem after next.

    dfifield

    Any info you can pass on to me would be great. After i made a statement i was never contact again or informed what was the true cause.

  • i wonder if the pilot got dizzy from that

  • Shit, I wonder if the pilot got DEAD from that!

  • i wonder if the pilot got dizzy from that

  • And there goes 2.5 million and my tax money. Sry if any one got hurt.

  • haha!

  • Ok, who let the woman drive?

  • loooooool:P

  • LOL!!!

  • That could not have been worse.

  • I agree. Because i dont think the pilot would intentionaly turn the hellicopter like that while trying to land.

  • looks like sudden crosswinds got him

  • thay should call it the crash king cince it is good at crashing

  • vay

  • you never have these kind of probs in a beamship

  • i agree with legolover79

  • Doesnt look very realistic though it is :S

  • Yes it is ! im a Pilot and yes that CAN happen .. scary but true..sorry to bust your bubble !

  • I would just like to thank u 4 not using music on such a tragic thing as a crash

  • I don't think we should get mad when people say they're dead, because the description says, "It seems that all seven passengers onboard were recovered."

  • Like allways on youtube: kiddystyle comments, sad.

    Thanks for the respectfully comments.

    RIP.

  • _-_ "RIP" ?? They ain't dead

  • I think maybe co-pilot adjust too much power on rotor so the rotor spin faster than main blade.

  • What happened? Looks like he lost tail rotor authority?

  • all of you are idiots. This man was trying to do his job, and his helicopter crashed. I pity his family and all the other crew members who died in this accident. And how dare all of you wish hell upon a man who was killed in an accident. If your dad was killed in a accidental helicopter crash, you wouldn't want people do laugh at his death and wish hell upon him. You wouldn't want that would you?

    You inconsiderate heathens!

  • Ya and I go with legolover79 becuase it wasnt his fault. Lets see one of you get out there and land a large heli on a boat when its windy out i betcha at least one of you maybe even 2 would wreck. And if you think its us americans well ive got some news for you! WE FLY EXACTLY THE SAME AS EVERY ONE ELSE! WE ARE ALL HUMANS! But unfourntionitly we have to live in a world were every one critisizes what you do. So think about and SHUT UP!

  • No one died in this incident.

  • the sea king is british geek
