Big Bucks Bernie, That video reminds me of an accident involving an R44 and a tow platform connected to a lawn tractor. The pilot touched down with the skids off the rear, bumped the stinger and over corrected pushing forward cyclic, the MR blades cut through the "A" frame hitch. No injuries, not even to the person seated on the tractor at the time.
