  • guess they needed some new shorts after that flight!

  • 240p

    We meet again

  • ya its spray but it could still put out both engines causing it to crash into the sea probably killing the winchman below it.. "just spray"

  • You may say it's just spray but there is a lot of weight to the spray. 1 tonne per cubic meter of water - turn to spray it is still 1 tonne of water but the load is spread out. Still a big hazard. All credit to the pilot and flight crew

  • Was a lot of spray!!! You see them try and get away from it but it was too late. You know that pilot was freaking for a sec.

  • You idiots. It's just spray!!

  • Thats not a wave, its just spray. if a proper wave hit it! It would a been knocked out the sky for sure! Still an impressive heli and i much prefer to fly that then do my pesky job!

  • Like to see a cormorant or S92 try that!!!!

  • did you see that??? how high was that wave??? more than 15 meters i guess :o

  • how the hell did that happen, that was massive
