Morbid fascination

I've watched multiple videos of this episode taken from a couple of different vantage points. Seeing that airframe flex & warp after that first blade comes off is some of the most impressive chopper related footage I've ever seen. Great instructional material. As a humble R22 pilot I never realised the big rodent could move so quickly, very sobering.
