I reckon your man Jean Boulet featured here:
http://www.eurocopter.com/site/FO/img/1601g72.jpg looks pretty handy to me, for having the bottle to fly at almost 40000 ft (12442m) at -62c and autorotating down from 12100m when the engine flamed out and for the skill in making it safely through 4000m of cloud using only the sun halo as a reference and then making it to the airfield.
the best probably not, but very very handy !
