Rescue team dropped him harder that the crash itself...

so many stupid replays?

@TheCordog CH-53 Helicopters are designed to fold the tails for maintenance and space saving. theres gears (Disconnect coupling) on each side that mate when the tail is spread. those teeth most likely siezed and ripped the lockpins out of place.

Even despite the grainy video, you could see the whole fuselage oscillating before the failure. I'd like to think I would have set down at that point.

Thanks what the pilot has the helmet or the pilot will be death rigth now acaused the drop.

And then Hudson says: "Game over, man! Game over!"

Horrible structural load problems on tail, not a fault of the tail rotor, just the tail. When you have that type of frequency generation on a structure that large it tells me immediately that the craft was either operating outside of its envelope (maybe over or under powering the main rotor) or had severe mechanical/structural failure.

How does that even happen?
