Not even a bird can do that.

@jthf07 maybe...the actual speed of the lynx is not 249mph, however, one lynx was stripped down on purpose to get the record. so by taking off all the combat equipment and shaving weight, in actual fact, they did create the worlds fastest heli, much faster than the havoc and the naval and army lynx (with equipment). bell has created a hybrid heli with 2 pusher props i believe that has taken the record, but i dont regard that as a true heli, more of a semi autogyro :P

What an amazing machine. The engineers told the pilots they could theoretically do a barrel roll, but then the pilot had to be bad ass enough to give it a try. Unreal guts!
