If you watch it again closely the tail rotor stopped spinning. If the helicopter is not in forward flight at a higher speed than it was shown here the helicopter will spin out of control because the tail rotor is not counteracting the torque made by the main engines/rotors.
This was actually an RAF Wessex that crashed and killed several youngsters who were anboard for a flight experience...."cool" is not a word that is really appropriate.
That is a Sikorsky S-58; not a Sikorsky S-55.
