Comfortable landing ??

"The Robinson 44 helicopter was undergoing agriculture work at around 9am when it touched on the 11,000 volt lines. The chopper has minor damage, but landed comfortably and there are no reports of anyone onboard being injured."

How does a helicopter land comfortably after touching 11,000 volts ???

Sorry, I am not a pro .. just an enthusiast.
