Helicopter Crash NYC

[MrSpIdErPiG1000]

why did they go so steep down? that is reckless! Luck they were ok

[robactor]

There were only 2 on board, this has been well documented on a program on Discovery. Both were relatively unharmed. Hydrolic belt snapped, causing severe control difficulties. One more reason to not go on a chopper, way too many things that can go wrong!

[leow626569]

I'd give the landing 4/5 since there is a little bit of damage to the helicopter

[MattiaCODBO]

another woman pilot

[TheStuBBZZ]

wow i love how they just seemed to just walk out that helicopter crash without a scratch :P

[TheCoolguy1667]

looks like my first chopper flight in gta

[markmaxtag]

a cable in the tail broke causing it to lose control

[BenzE190]

@RadioBull haha

[michkakdan]

was the pilot drunk or something

[MigueeruKun]

thanks to god (Y)

[efastMixer]

SimCity 4

[hmt227]

remember kids ... dont drink and fly

[fb767]

Looks like Sims City.

[Jutt08]

NEW YORK IS the best state

[pbarc552]

@finfred This helicopter's reputation for hydraulic failures/accidents/mishaps are well known. The belt that's responsible for hydraulic power assistance is the culprit. A design problem? I don't know. But you don't see many other choppers going down because of these hydraulic belt problems like this or similar to this - do you?

[supatones]

uh oh ...better get MAACO

[xvoy2002]

Wow, how did they survive that!? The initial impact against the building was bad enough, but he wreckaged dropped another 30 feet on top of it. Who says seatbelts don't save lives?



[Texarmageddon]

Now that is some piloting... bet you i would never touch a heli after that though

[armstrong762]

Hahaha the guy gets out n hes like wtf jst happened haha jst the way he looked was funny

[70goldtop]

Stupid New Yorkers.They were probably on their way to the Poconos.They apparently fly helicopters the way they drive their cars....like assholes

[HipsterKiller]

@70goldtop  lol

[DrFubarProzak]

@70goldtop fuck off and die you uneducated fucking stupid nigger

[70goldtop]

@DrFubarProzak Keep taking your Prozac.You need it.Just another crazy dirtbag loser New Yorker.Why are New Yorkers such low lives?The women either have AIDS or HEP C or both and they're proud of it and the so called men are all sissy fudge packers.Stay out of PA you freaks.

[sickandtiredofmorons]

@70goldtop Fuck off you stupid asshole. Do society a favor and commit suicide.

[70goldtop]

@sickandtiredofmorons I won't have to commit suicide.One of you NYC assholes will probably run into me on your way to the Poconos.How can you look in the mirror everyday if you're "sickandtiredofmorons"?

[sickandtiredofmorons]

I am not from New York you idiot.

[thunderstruck665]

WNBC + News Choppers = FAIL!

[Wingman77tws]

WTF>????

[GOPJ00]

they are lucky!

[omegaism1]

Like GTA lol

[camboy67]

@omegaism1 maybe cj was driving it

[Raaj143Y]

As you can see, the pilot was trying his/her best to avoid crashing. I want to know more about this crash....What happened and how did it happen????

[Losagirl1980]

fuck

[kirkmach32]

I just threw a dumbass flag

[alukuhito]

Ah... Rich kids whose parents paid for their training?

[cappyboy900]

How did you come to that conclusion? YOur an idiot

[alukuhito]

Classic.

It's "you're", as in "you are", you fucking numbskull.

[cappyboy900]

Wow, Ok it's youtube not the fucking dictionary. You probably blame everything that goes wrong in your life on the rich right? You're a fucking idiot

[alukuhito]

I'm not talking about dictionaries. I'm talking about simple clarity of mind. Anyway a dictionary doesn't teach you how to distinguish between "your" and "you're."

Who are "the rich" and why would I blame them for things that go "wrong" in my life?

Winner Alert.

[superfly181]

what happened ?

[1Royce1]

LOL! He was dizzy...

[zack50082]

shake shake shake!!!

[Stratboy999]

MAVISSS!!! Clean pair of trousers please....

[Darkmaster77777]

I watched one of the videos- what have i been saved from? 15 Minutes of my time?

[strapioni]

lol nice one!

[trackmedic]

Keep the RPMS up!

[Jazzaconda]

they are, hydrualics bro

[Quagmire88]

must of been a woman flying it....

[cps6290]

hahaha lol

[highnrising]

Those are some lucky motherfs.

[claton95]

@highnrising agreed

[666Nehemah666]

sweet!

[drgreendick]

Se sacaron la chucha!!

[OniXV250]

lulz

[Fiinniinnii]

HOLY SHIT, DAMN

[Patrickgmpfilms1993]

what happen person drive? drunk and die or what?

[imlivinitupniggaz]

that would suck if you had clothes drying on that roof top, i'd be pissed!

[simolui]

lets put it this way, i would b pissed off anyway as the roof is gone altogether....

[rayven2012]

The pilot did one hell of a job saving those lives.

[keanu2112]

stumbling out of the wreckage is more like it.

[tokenchoke311]

wild ride

[morman1217]

they wrecked cuz all of a sudden they heard the reporters nasaly voice and it scared him

[ryanmare1]

dont drink while operating things kids

[Lolixelia]

Pilot- "God damn it john what I tell you about hitting the red button on the control system. Look what you did..."

[Sizol8]

PWN3D

IDiOT

[axlisback99]

can someone please explain to me what pwned means? is it a retards way of saying 'owned' or what?

[matsrudi]

it means player owned or something....and yes, in this context it is retarded to say pwnd

[out2kyl]

misspelling of "owned"

Keyboard ninjas miss the o sometimes. Eventually it caught on

[dasnervtlangsam666]

:O good pilot...

[Thumbs0nFire]

wow thats some good piloting and emergancy crash positions.

[LittleMrL]

yea, you have to admit that guy earned his wings. Helicopter controls are so very sensitive that they seriously keep dust off the propeller thing cuz it could throw off the balance.

[FuckAnPWorkAtBurgerK]

Look check this out. I have my FAA Airframe and Power plant license, and I've been working on this shit for over 14 years.

Trust me DUST is not going to cause an imbalance. You can do a rotor track and it will be fine.

Now MUD on a rotor? That is a different thing !

[555theking555]

fuck you

[MattyB615]

That was some darn good flying/save.

[raxater]

i hope the owners of the fields got insurance to repair the sandbox xD

[GEO3392]

wow

[M4TW]

I remember this. some belt on the helicopter was loose straight form the manufacturer.

[donteatmyfood]

that wad befunnnn

[thekingoffutbol]

its not fake, didnt you hear the woman talk on news.

[gregordiesel]

A fake would look extremely different!!!

[Christoph30Berlin]

@ first time i think that was a toy chopper

[doogrisa]

thats cool that they all lived.

[PianoChampion616]

i definently think the nbm copter did this in ourpose just to get a good news story and to defeat there news enemy lol

[HeroofTime42]

just as she says Just happend to be there

[khunopie]

I think the helicopter was dizzy...

[Reegoskeepinitcool]

ROFLcopter

[AEMoreira81]

The reason why I believe they survived is because it stayed in the air long enough so that it wasn't a sudden plunge. I remember this vividly.

[ZuperDomo101]

ha i was lmfao

[thedarkallies]

In other works, the Pilot was a frieken moron!

[simon172172]

i fink the pilot was a bit shoked and dident know what 2 fink it was an hydraulic

[LeeCummins]

hehehe

[mdbrunig1]

amazing recovery by the pilot

[rcsmithsam99]

Is this real or fake,

[HardballNerd]

That cant be made on vid. fake, so i dont think that it is...

[WereRabbbit]

Real vid, I saw it on TV

[gkaplan2000]

Toast, but the official term is "knackered."

[flyerholland]

tail rotor failure.. but i guess more have noticed that :)

[slednecks17]

No.. not a tail rotor failure. With a loss of tail rotor authority the helicopter would spin round and round, almost smoothly, this is clearly a hydraulic problem

[SorrowSong94]

That thing fell apart so easily, Luckily no one got hurt. :P

[PhilippeDeChampaigne]

Al Queda at it again, eh?

[ImMe1314]

fuck you retard?

lmao

[shayk47]

hehe

[m14closerangeSniper]

wow! i didnt know u could take down helicopters with a .22!

[Ransicano]

It wasnt a gun that brought the helicopter down, all though a pistol could easily bring down a chopper like that with a few clips

[anthonywasere]

whot happend???

[bigkev2251]

its OK i didnt spill my beer.

[spike555mr]

this what happens when you spill calding hot coffee on your balls While flying..!

[GravitonProductions]

I'd say the pucker factor was at a maximum aboard that chopper.

[aroundtheworls]

Black Hawk Down!!!!!

[mykalroze]

crap! talk about scary! I almost got dizzy watching it. Good thing they all survived. If I were in there, and survived, I'd have to check my pants.

[gabel83]

Pilot is a real god!

It's not easy go down slowly in that situation!

[veunson]

Im glad to see they are all okay!!

[newfielad47]

nice looking tree

[AreaQNH870]

LMFAO

[Heterodyne]

Idiot

[romka4567]

Retard

[VALENTINEproductions]

holy shit. never heard about this.

[lpmv]

problem with Trail Rotor !!!

right ?

[h5y]

crazy when the guy walks out.. traumatizing.

[tidus93]

they were pretty lucky...

[jacupuh]

reporter made a grim joke...

[doublej4q97]

its amazing how pathetic some of you people are.... May God have mercy on you guys...Its a shame people like you live in this world...

[yoyopo413]

the tail rotor was not spinning thats y it spun outta control

[9thprotocol]

too bad it wasn't a cop chopper

[dvsdez]

hehe yeah too bad hey ;)

[94rainbowx33]

bad pilot

[UnknownZerggling]

dont drink and fly?

[boardburt0n]

no its dont drink and drive, smoke and fly haha

[One9One6Three1Three2]

If that would have been a Fox news helicopter, I would have thrown a party.

[RomanianBaller]

lmao

[Brian211978]

Holy lucky!

[esquadmiller]

Brilliant engineering job on the helicopter!!

This is exactly what mechanical engineers had to predict will happen, and look at this, no fire, nobody crumbled, everyone just walkes out happy to be alive!

[halofreak447]

true

[jxwhee]

Damn homey was ghost ridin' the whip.

[meanyouallday32]

this actually happend right by my building i was watchin tv nd my mom was on the computer than she seen the helicopter flying very low and she told me 2 look out the window and i saw it turning having problems so i told my mom and we ran out the door in a second when we reached out side we saw people running but luckly no one got hurt

[pharoprnce]

either way the pilot is a PIMP! I can beleive he still managed to sustain control of it like that. mad props!

[Rightnut20]

it just was a failure probobly contracted from the tail roater.

[tommygf333]

think he was drunk

[TacticalToast619]

musta been a ride.

[pwND001]

incredible control!

[LilPiggyBank90]

i only got to see it on a flat bed trunk passing brooklyn

[eragon1518]

lol was he jerking off in there?

[Shaunbadiasback]

fucking owned!

[chaz84720]

i know what made it crash i seen it on the history channel

[lambolova]

wow that happens to me on gta 4 all the time lol looks just like it to and its in nyc holy crap o.o pilot must have been playing to much gta lol

[hoteloscarjuliet]

It's incredible that they survived that.

[armolite]

that looks like maybe it was a cyclic failiure, he fought well with it too, i dont think many pilots could have pulled out of that.

its good that none of them died.

[HybridRxn]

holy crap!!

[Kellers357]

I think they may need a new helicopter...

[kamikaze27191]

dont be silly just tape it up, polish out the scratches and they'll be good to go lol

[TonyAirlines]

News 9 > News 4

[dudewars]

aha looks like channel 4 news has a new story

[funnylutefisk]

I like the way it split in half very dramatic and he lived it reminds me of flying in GTA IV.

[traz0m]

SOOOOO TRUE

[DeToXdAnGlz]

lol they'll probs gunna blame this on violent video games :D

[cakethetake]

pilot error!!! read the reports>>>>and as an photographer that flys in a heli everyday. why would you auto to a roof top!!!

[OnnaNekoYasha]

Like hell it was!

[OnnaNekoYasha]

xD Well in the opinion of a learning pilot, they're hard to control half the time anyway!

Kudos to the ones who can do it the rest of the time too :)

[blooddaymond9999]

that's looks like a chopper failure. how the fuck did he survived. that's really a lucky bastar. good for him

[jayr545]

Holy f'n shit!!!

[nagyac0]

what a lucky bastard

[mutguts]

amazing

[MCneun]

they survived that, thats gangsta

hhuahuaua

[nodham]

I love the fact that as a news chopper goes down, another news chopper films it! :D

[vonsusername]

oh yeah that was me playing gta iv online

[pavlopavlo82]

lol this was funny it was allover the news good thing he's alive

[IFI92]

what a douche he could have stabilised that helicopter look how high in the sky he was

[karlis1989]

No he couldnt - he tryed but he couldnt because Heli had lost Hydraulics system for controls and without it Helis controls become hard to control

[EightRacer103]

could have been more than pilot error

[M4tTyEa4LiFe]

ur just a twat mate... have u eva tried to stabalise a chopper wen its losing controlling and headin for the floor... also panic would kick in and he wouldnt know wat to do, so y dont u get a life and u try and do wat u think is so easy to do... wen u can stabalise a chopper in that situation then you can post that comment...
