Kenyan Man Takes Hold of Helicopter and Doesn't Let Go
 
An unidentified man grabbed hold of the landing skis of a helicopter that was flying the body of controversial businessman Jacob Juma from Bungoma, western Kenya, to his rural homeland for burial on Friday, May 13. The man later let go, fell to the ground and was seriously injured. Juma’s body was found May 6 in questionable circumstances, with two gunshots to the chest. Credit: YouTube/David Fwamba

Darwin's Award would-be, except he seems to have survived. Had the chance to bail at a less lethal height but didn't.

Did the Pilot know, if not a couple of tight orbits would have altered the weight imbalance..!! :ok:

EC120 - when light, they hang right-skid-low (worse with wind from the right), and skids so far back that pilot "may not have noticed";)

Not 120, it is 130.
If it was 120 it wouldn't have left the ground effect there.
