Doesn't look like a fuel thing. If you look closely looks like the rear tail rotor gave. I work on helicopters. Almost as if the drive shaft to the rear rotors snapped. Virtually if you lose that tail rotor you lose your stabilizers. Therefor falling right back to the ground/water spinning of control.
@hhds113 It didn't give, it just looks like it changes direction because of the FPS to rotor speed ratio factoring in the angular movement of the helicopter. It gives the illusion of a reversing blade. If you loose the rear rotor you don't just go down you spin uncontrollably.
* this is the pilot of the roflcopter we are flying in water, but its k. (two seconds later) HOLY SHIT THE ROFLCOPTER IS UPSIDE DOWN CALL IN THE LAMO BOAT
I was the pilot of that chopper, the previous pilot left it without fuel, I only had to make another hundred metres but my instruments were saying 'Ditch Ditch Ditch' I should have chanced my luck and gone for the deck but hindsight's a wonderful thing isn't it?
.
The chopper's gone but everyone on board are still here!
@bradgreta Impossible to do so. The blades had a momentum of their own. When the chopper hit the water, the pilot had no control. Electrics and hydraulics were of no use, even if the pilot tried
why dont they come up with a back-up system for the tail rotor??? got 2 be a way to go electric-if its hydraulic-or visa virsa???

Pilot was thirsty... It sounds like the 30mm cannon on an A-10 thunderbolt going off when the rotors strike the water.. lullz.

This is actually how Russians wash their helicopters.

Did you not check the fuel gauge when you set off?

@BertHigginbottom It's a pretty horrible mistake not checking the fuel before going off in an aircraft :)
