Low flying Heli's

We are all seeing quiet a lot of low/fast flying by a myriad of helis down in the giant sandpit courtesy of Uncle Saddam, now having been taught that altitude is your friend, what do you do when some body opens a tin of "Wupp-ass" and it stops your donkey doing what it should, do you flare and try to land evenly or do you try to gain altitude with the speed/energy, and then try to enter some sort of controlled descent. Could one of you old/high timers explain this?
My question is assuming that the rotors are still able to work!
Many regards
