In the pilots defense, they are kind of hard to control once the tail rips off...
Indeed but in the start of the vid it did seem as tho he had pretty stable control at least to bring her down safe but he may have felt it was best to get back to the LZ
@@user-mo6qu8xr3nI imagine the smoke isn't a sign of a helicopter that's easy to control and "stable" no matter how it appears from the ground.
Yes... But there's a reason you're meant to land IMMEDIATELY. Not nearby, not at the closest airport, go down and land on a road if you have to.
@@user-mo6qu8xr3n an engine fire in a helicopter is detrimental and in the procedures state you should land immediately if the fire indication doesn't go out after extinguishing
The pilots did not press the gas and the brake meaning he didn’t take a screenshot there is no evidence besides this video which could be very easily faked and if just because it’s posted by a “new program” channel then it’s not the first time the news believed something that was fake and told everyone the watched the news channel that’s what they though was real IS real when it ISNT real and this is completely a joke that if you really think is argumentative then you need to watch some more KZhead but more on the dark humor and dumb fake info side like if you press the brake and the gas at the same time it takes a screenshot and if you have read up this point I’m going thank you.. bc I just wasted your time bc I had nothing better to do then waste it. It’s also more fun to waste it than to use it kinda like how your probably still reading this acknowledging the fact that by continuing to read this your still wasting your time on this because your curiosity is getting you to waste your time you’ll never get it back and bc I’m bored as hell and I need sleep I’m gonna stop writing and continue petting the hallucination of my dog Mugen that died like 4 months ago and isn’t really here.. it’s crazy what losing sleep does to you but even if this hallucination means I get to see my dog again I’m willing to taking the risk of losing sleep over it and possibly even dying as I loved that dog so much that since I’m super into fake guns or airsoft and nerf whenever he’d come in my room I’d hide them as best I could and I only started to hide them when he started to shake like an electric toothbrush and I though he was scared but actually that was the first sign that he was in pain and that he was gonna get put down soon and relieved from the pain he was in he then started to not be able to control his clatter so he could just be drinking water from his bowl and at the same time peeing and didn’t even know he was peeing until til it reached his paws and then would stop drinking and hold it I would take him outside and then carefully help him walk up the ramp he used to get into the dog pen man he was a good dog and I would sell every single thing I own even my new gaming pc and my phone i’d even delete my KZhead channel if it meant I got so see, pet, and hug again. I also wanted to take him out to the dog park on the day before he got put down so he could enjoy the day and enjoy the sunset before going home just like I did with my other dog the we had to put down but my brother who knew my dog for the longest time said I couldn’t but I wanted his last few days to be happy and relaxed and calm and not just like every day and I wished I recorded it but I didn’t but when the lady put the leash on him and walked him to the room that they put him down in he walked so happily and I know that he knew why he was there and he was in pain so I’m not to sad about it bc he’s happy now and obviously happy as hallucination but he just disappeared when I started to realize he was a hallucination I just got to emotional and had to let some sad stuff out but even if you feel bad for me and if your sad imma quickly switch the topic bc I’m not sad about it bc he was in so much pain I felt better after he was put down bc I didn’t have to watch him suffer all the time and now that I think about it we should have put him down at a sooner time if I knew a day before he started hurting I would tell my mom that he’s going to be to old and hurt all the time and that I would much rather have him not in pain than in pain before he died and just to put him down before he was to old to hold his blather and and always be in pain and uncontrollably shake like a off balanced wash machine at its max speed and the next topic is if your still reading this and sad and a male then do what I did and bottle up your emotions and later in life die on the job but but if your still reading this then you need to go to sleep and I wasted a lot of your time and also additionally got you to be sad but go to bed or continue doing what you are instructed to be doing or whatever you were doing before reading this long a** comment because you had nothing to do other than read it but I gotta go to sleep so thank for letting me waste your time and I’m goin to bed🫡👍
May this brave crew rest in peace. 🙏
2 onboard survived the crash, the pilot died. There was also one fatality on the ground.
não existe descanso filho
Pilots survived, the medic in the back and a lady in an apartment died.
@@GNXperimental I had it wrong. I knew that there were two on the aircraft that survived, thought the pilot died... "The NTSB is investigating the crash of a 1999 Airbus Helicopters EC135T1 on Monday morning that killed a flight paramedic and one person on the ground. The pilot and another medical crewmember aboard survived, and two other people on the ground were injured after the helicopter's tail boom folded"
Why brave? You know them?
Can't imagine the terror of those last few moments.
I can...it's awe...fuck
The pilots survived.

That’s terrifying what must have gone through the pilots head
Holy shit holy shit I’m going to die holy shit
Probably flames
A roof
The blades
The joystick
"Only two dead." That in and of itself is a miracle. Crew must have flown it all the way in.
5 died
@@LoneWolf_RO stop making up numbers. The updated news stories from months after the fact say only 2 people died. You can find interviews with all of the other people who were on board except the deceased Lurean Wheaton.
You must have watched a different clip than I did
What a genius, what else is the crew gonna do jump out with a parachute??
They had 0 control.
Oh man, that is so so sad. Thier final moments were filled with absolute terror
No way to know that.
@@thepush8629So you’re saying you wouldn’t be scared as hell if you knew you were crash-landing and probably dying in a fiery explosion?
@raymondfong2880 that too I would have no way of knowing, but if it happens lol I'll get back at you as soon as possible. I just wonder is all. That wonder is based off my faith in Jesus. To be clear I do not declare you are wrong nor me to be right. 🤝🙏
Maybe.
The pilots didn't die.
As a pilot this is our worst nightmare come true prayers to everyone who lost there lives and there families.
Well, what do you think happened? Poorly manufactured parts from overseas or bad preventative maintenance here in america.
@@sommguy1792it's kinda funny to watch over the years. It's become easier for dumbasses to get a license, manufacturing quality has gone down across the board, drugs are easier than ever to attain and hide
Yes I just commented it's sophisticated Oblivion that they can't even make decent equipment to hold together and cause more loss of life above and below incompetence😮
If you're a pilot, you need to learn the difference between there, their, and they're. Otherwise you might land on a college kid with pronoun issues when told to land "there."
But why didn't your 'god' help the poor people? Seems weird how he only ever seems to help with prayers after something but never stops stuff from happening in the first place. It's almost like it's pure bullshit.
May the people who passed in this transition to the next life in peace, acceptance, and love- may their families heal the same 🙏🏾
It’s crazy to think in this video the people in the helicopter were in such deep and pure terror. Praying for their families
Average day in Florida
Believe me they had other far more important matters to deal with
Being violently thrown around like that, they were almost certainly knocked out unconscious, or already deceased.
@@JimiBegbaaji When the tail boom broke off that was it for them, before the break they were assholes and elbows trying to deal with their rapidly deteriorating situation
@@oveidasinclair982what does this even mean?
RIP To everyone involved 🙏🏻
RIP to the crew 😢. Everyday we get here Is a blessing!
The pilots survived.
The people who died were on the ground
Deep
When something goes wrong with a helicopter, they fly like a rock.
that's why when you notice a problem you immediately set it down, because it ain't a glider.
In this case, kinda. But in a lot of helicopter engine failures you can glide and land.
@@markkulyas2418if you have time to that is, that’s by no means, even remotely close to a fool proof plan lmao. Almost like saying “well if I’m ab to get into a car crash, THEN I’ll put on my seatbelt”
I mean, it depends on the issue. Getting the tail snapped like that, yeah that'll do it. A broken tail on an airplane would be catastrophic too.
@@BionicLemmingit’s not gliding it’s called an autorotation and you’re not doing an auto with complete loss of tail rotor drive unless you already were able to weather vain the aircraft and even then Its going to dynamically rollover.
That’s tragic, especially considering the occupation of those involved. May they rest in peace.
Damn I complain about work being stressful then there’s shit like this.
Imagine just sitting on the couch and a helicopter crashes thru your roof.
Well you wouldn't have much time to think about it considering the lady in the apartment died too
It's why you never rent the top floor apartment.
You wouldnt even have time to react.
@@deanhaight7258wouldnt matter
@@deanhaight7258 Yes first floor apartments are great for floods too 😅
Heartbreaking.... Ive flown choppers for years... Been told a million times by old pilots... If smoking set it down yesterday!
That’s what they were trying to do, bozo. You think they were sight seeing??!🎉
@@GODSWORD11 now is that anyway for a Christian to talk? Think about that
@@kygreenskeeper8326 sure thing butt pilot..
@@GODSWORD11 well it looks like he was flying in a straight line while it was smoking, also the guy in the video says I hope he makes it back. Not sure what video you watched.

Bless them and their families. Some of the few good ones that work for the state
Where was te accident?
Not true, there are plenty of good ones if you get off the internet and stop letting it jade you
Wow! You suck
Ok
@@mhxxd4You’re lying and you know it. 🙄
How tragic😢 Sorry for those that perished and those misplaced. Prayers your life was spared.
They were trying to go back to land. Never made it. Out of the 3 people on helicopter. Only 1 dead. The other person was in apartment. Her husband also in apartment survived.
My Dad flew helicopters in Vietnam. He described them as something violently shaking itself apart everytime it took off.
That’s how Hueys are last I checked
I worked as an aviation fire fighter, one thing an old timer told me was "helicopters don't fly, they beat the air into submission".
Prayers for the family and friends. Just so heartbreaking
God bless those poor people amen
It's so sad that the baby even can feel something isn't right 😞
Terrible accident and 2 are dead and many hurt.. Lord help !!! 😮
Lmfaoooo
@@Kens-qz7vlseriously why ?
@tonyalston4838 they probably lmfaoing at the fact that this person said lord help after the accident. Yknow they all powerful guy waiting to help after people are hurt and dead is kinda funny
They may have meant it as in Lord help the families and the injured and dead souls. Like a comforting gesture, not so much as for God to hop off his cloud and reverse time to catch the copter before it took a giant shit type thing
god aint gonna put the fire out man
Holy shit never seen the tail just break like that
To be fair it's not supposed to do that.
Horrible. RIP and prayers to the families
Bless these first responders.
From that last video it looks like he may have had time for an emergency landing. I may be wrong and hopefully all this was just a horrible accident. RIP to all the ones lost.
Pilot had it until it broke apart. Valiant effort but sadly in Vain. Rip 😢
That’s a tragedy I hope a full investigation takes place
What a horrific thing to watch. May they rest in piece.
So the truth is that the two workers on board lived after they were helped out of the wreckage by two brave people from the apartment complex! How they did that I don't know, since that fire started pretty quickly! Aviation fuel seems to make surviving these accidents very difficult! It's amazing that they did survive, given the catastrophic failure of the tail boom due to the severed drive shaft!
What a terrible way to die
Thank you for your service towards your community and this great nation 🙏🏽
Thank you for your service Rip 🚁
Damm gotten flash back, while in Afghanistan, when one of our apache gunship was hit by rpg, went down just like this
im sorry for the famlies lost God bless the two that died and their families and the ones that were hurt during the crash
Prayers for the families...
Firemen are all heroes. From the family of a fellow fireman in England, I hope their memories are cherished. Rest in peace.
“Look honey there’s dead people in there” I mean cmon…
He 100% said money. Meaning he calls his kid money...
I counted ten seconds in one of the videos where it was straight ind level with smoke. Tail rotor temperature gages, torque gages and a couple of othere's more than likely showed issues before the smoke appeared. No flight is important enough to ignore issues.
Tears poured down my face as I watched this, just so heartbroken 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
So very sad!! My dad crashed his copter into Lake Tahoe, late 60s. Walked away but never piloted again
Wonder what caused the tail to catch fire and break apart?!
Engine fires typically. Supposedly that's what happen and apparently they are saying procedures say they should have landed immediately vs continued flying, Per reports..
@@EllipsismLLJWYes, the reports are saying the pilot should have put it down immediately but it looked like he was trying to make it back to the airport. But who knows for sure? I’m sure they’ll investigate it. Very sad for all concerned.
Looks like the helicopter lost structural integrity from the fire burning it. Def seems like they should have landed immediately.
Entropy always wins in the end.
Rest in peace
May God be with you air pilots ❤😢
Why wasn't he with them before the accident? Weird. Almost like it doesn't exist
@@Sycophants_should_sufferAtheism is the most dogmatic religion.
It always kills me when bad things happen to good ppl
In San Diego about 3 years ago a UPS driver that was retiring that week pulled into my buddies cul-de-sac and while he was in the truck, a plane came down on it...Killed him instantly. Later they found a Dr. Dead in his back yard...He was lounging at the pool on a day off and a part of the plane came right down on top of him...Horrible luck ...😔
This is terrible - just trying to do their job
Helicopters are the most dangerous thing you can fly
Nope, cars are more dangerous than planes or helicopters
@thatguys_idea Key word here is "fly."
@@thatguys_ideayou think motorcycles are safer than cars? 😂
@@thatguys_idea That's why i quit flying cars years ago.
Not true
Please help the familys involved in this sad moment god bless
Oh man..sorry for victims .
RIP
One of my greatest fears cause I live in an apt building smack next door to where a helicopter takes off and lands daily.
Imagine feeling safe at home and a plane or helicopter crashes into your house. I always thought about this. Same with the house falling into a sinkhole
I've thought about both the same.
As a helicopter mechanic this is terrifying to see
Caraka.... as brazucas estão em todo lado! Kkkkkk
Apparently the pilot thought that he was in an airplane and he was trying to make it back to the airport.
Prayers and condolences ❤
Omg that's horrible poor people
Bless
It's important to land your aircraft immediately after it catches fire.
Was he trying ? He may ! Looking for a safe place to land? So many things may had happened. Loss of hydraulic power, stuck collective, torque pedals locked..... so many factors.
@@daleblue22And not to mention the flux capacitor overheating.
@dominicjohnson8428 nah bro.... that's back to the future component stuff. Helicopters are legit hardware.
Learned that from gta bois
@@daleblue22a lot of people like to think they can make it back to the airport. He didnt look like he was trying to descend at all
I was in a situation like this but in a gasoline tanker and in those last few seconds I just thought of nothing but how much pain. My life did not flash before my eyes only how much pain. Then it was over for better or worse.
Absolutely horrifying- I live in Florida and know how hot it is out on a regular day so imagine bursting into flames in 90 degree weather absolutely horrific
For all of you making up stuff for likes, kick rocks attention vampires. Due to a lack of a description and people spreading misinformation, this is what happened; First of all, NOBODY died. The 2 crew members on board survived because 2 civilian residents of the building, who were also injured, assisted them in exiting the helo. Stop making up stuff for likes, kids.
😮😮😮😮
Nope, friend of mine worked with them as EMT and 5 ppl died. 4 in the helo and 1 lady in her apt
Casually watching tv 📺 in living room… suddenly HELICOPTER 🚁 crashes down 😮
New fear unlocked
Prayers for all.🙏 🙏
I myself have been in this circumstance SEVERAL times. The important thing is to remain calm like I did.
Usually Life flight choppers are 💯% safe, this situation needs to be fully investigated 🚁
Looks like a fire ate through the tail of the helicopter and weakened it causing the failure. That would be my guess anyway.
@@SurgeDashcamyea but uh they aren’t supposed to be on fire so what caused that? It’s like the World Trade Center it collapsed because the fire started to melt the beams, but uh the cause of the fire was well yeah.
Shouldn't things like that be serviced regularly? Especially since it's emergency services operating over pedestrian housing?
It's a government helicopter they really don't give a crap about the citizens.. they're much more concerned about getting their kick back from their buddy doing the maintenance
It was. Mechanical failures happen.
@@hook86this is structural incompetence that's like your truck frame breaking going down the highway and causing death it just doesn't happen😢 what could be more important than the structural integrity have a helicopter or airplane? This is incompetence what's the resulted in death and suffering all around😅
and what is your source for that? @@markeverson5849

@@Textra62A helicopter is considerably more complicated than a pair of shoes, or even an airplane. The expression is: A helicopter doesn't fly, it beats the air into submission!
Rule one you’re helicopter is On fire LAND! Pretty simple
No it isn't they need to go somewhere flat and safe So the rotors don't collide with anything causing a bigger problem.
They were, but hell broke loose to quick.

@@yourlocalfurrybraixen55 what if you crash in the in unsafe spot anyway? surely a controlled, unsafe landing is safer than an uncontrolled, unsafe landing
@@velvetypotato711 well who knows seconds mater, seconds can change the future
Something catastrophic happened in the drive train to the tail rotor. If only he just put it down immediately. I think he was searching for an open place to come down.
Its hard in a residential area but they should have set it down emiediatly anywhere while you still have some control
New fear unlocked : helicopter helicopter 💀
Added to the list of cave diving, saturation diving, back country skiing, mountain climbing… I’m just staying inside until an aircraft engine falls on me.
Don't forget freaking flying roaches
Horrific. Rest in peace 🙏
Can't imagine a family thinking to have a good day, hit by an helicopter to their death. We're alive by grace indeed
...but they saved Thousand People when they stop Fires...Horrible accident !!! RIP to the 2 human that died this day...Respect to all Firemen in the World !!!
Rip to the 2 ppl that lost there lives as well
Dude wasnt even trying to descend, was he trying to make it back to the lz? I feel like he could have immediately pit it down
it's amazing as two of the occupants were actually able to jump on a roof before it crashed
Looks like a very populated area and he may have been looking for a safe spot to put her down safely to avoid loss of life on the ground, when the tail suddenly broke off. This pilot would have been highly trained since he was flying the chopper for fire/ rescue. Prayers for both persons who died in this crash and theirfamily RIP
Prayers🙏
Failure to immediately put down. Arrogance.
Have you flown a helicopter? Probably not! So shut up !
I'm no aviation expert but I am of the understanding that the tail part of the helicopter should stay attached during flight.
Did a small plane just crash in Florida too ?
Is this an attempt at humor?
Prayer to all
This is why I don't ever want to ride on helicopters. I had a cousin who died on a helicopter. I could just imagine how helpless he felt when the helicopter he was riding was plummeting down to earth. They just seem to always fall down from the sky, with rarely a chance to use autorotation to glide down to the ground safely without power, especially when there is structural failuree of any kind on the airframe. The tail boom failure in this case was caused by a fire that seems ti be coming from just behind the engine. The intense heat from the fire must have caused the failure of the tail boom framework that connects the body to the tail assembly.
The only injury reported was a chipped tooth . Incredible how that could be
Once the tail blades rip off, there’s almost no hope. You NEED them to be stable. I send my heart to all those effected.
One thing about holicopters; if something goes wrong it drops like a stone. Most small airplanes you can land even without engine running by just using glide at least.
That last clip was like watching a car crash playing San Andreas with the radio on.
I fear this every time I hear one flying near my apartment complex. Rest in peace🙏🏽
Man that's sucks. Rip
GOD-BLESS!R.J.CF7!
That must be the most terrifying thing in the world knowing you're over a residential location and you might be about to plummet through a house with nothing that you can do about it.. All I would be thinking about on the way down is the unsuspecting family that might be in my crash zone.
There was nothing the Pilots could do, they became Passengers RIP Forever 🙏🙏❤️❤️
I flew the same helicopter for 6 years, and there was nothing the pilot could do. The fire started over a residential area, no place to land except the airport 30 seconds away.
Horrifying 😢sad.
When a helicopter pilot looks over their shoulder and sees the tail of their aircraft, it's over. Prayers for the souls lost and their families.
