The photograph shows a Boeing Vertol 107 towing a barge at Prudoe Bay, Alaska. Nose down attitude reached up to 35 degrees but looks much greater. The event took place in 1982 and demonstrated that a 220 ton barge loaded with drilling equipment could be towed over ice, snow and water.

I think the operator was Columbia and it was a bona fide job for an oil company.

Leftie :
I don't think your inference about hugely overloaded wallets is anywhere near the mark, given the constant complaints of the low pay of helicopter pilots !!
