R22butters - if you don't want to learn (and possibly save your life) then carry on.
The first one is a classic for underpowered helos like the R22 - you end up with the lever under your armpit and hitting the ground hard - usually without getting anywhere near rotor stall - it is a function of poor piloting skills and only a partial decay since the engine is still pushing max power - it's not like an EOL where there is no power. It is this scenario that is often attributed to VRS when it absolutely is not the case.
The second one is where your confusion arises because you can't see that you haven't reached a power limit - it is simply VRS.
Agreeing with your lack of understading will not save my life!
,...and the 22 is not underpowered! In fifteen years of flying it I have yet to reach full throttle!

Listen to the old heads, it might help your own head to get a bit older so that after you save up for your next half hour in an R-22, you might survive it.
I just recently passed my twelfth flight review, I think I'll be just fine!
