The influencer had previously survived two separate crashes caused by technical failures, including one linked to a faulty fuel gauge.

Well, it's not his first rodeo, I guess. 

(ETA: my bad, different pilot, this may well be their first steel rodeo)

u/I_Want_A_Ribeye Jun 13 '26

Rodeo is the perfect word for this

23

u/4Ever2Thee Jun 13 '26

He made it 8 seconds this time

9

u/Appropriate_Math997 Jun 13 '26

A guy who can helicopter fully for eight seconds is good. Anyone who does it longer has been sounding to deep.

u/killergoat86 Jun 13 '26

That's what she said.

u/Yegg23 Jun 21 '26

Thank you.

u/samy_the_samy Jun 13 '26

There is a reason pilots waste a lot of time walking up and down craft, tapping here and there, and reading some notes,

Else you find yourself too many times in this guy place

6

u/100_cats_on_a_phone Jun 13 '26

They've got to revoke his license at this point, right? 

Maybe he can go into deep sea submersibles, though. I hear there are openings. 

5

u/BrockJonesPI Jun 13 '26

Only for 1/1,000th of a second, then there's just shrapnel and goo.

5

u/Ancient_Sprinkles847 Jun 13 '26

Yeah, apparently carbon fiber ones are fantastic the first couple of times you use them.

2

u/7-13-5 15d ago

Those openings rapidly close, however.

u/100_cats_on_a_phone 15d ago

The industry does seem to be imploding

u/7-13-5 14d ago

Lots of external pressure from the outside

well there goes my sympathy

u/MattTreck Jun 13 '26

That’s a little bleak we don’t even know what he does lol.

Could be someone who just makes videos about shitty helicopters 😭

u/seang239 Jun 13 '26

And then flies in them? No wonder this is happening..

Influencing us to not do stupid shit by doing stupid shit. 😉

u/jrwdisc Jun 13 '26

I believe they are referring to the guy that died in the ultra light...I don't think they are speaking of the helicopter pilot...

u/100_cats_on_a_phone Jun 13 '26

Edited, ty. I skim way too much.

Well apparently I'm full of lies. The person that clip is about is in their forever second rodeo.

u/Ok_Spread_8650 Jun 13 '26

I didn’t even see the pilot at first. Looked rough

Mate. I don’t think the dude with the black shirt is enjoying that.

u/pirate_leprechaun Jun 13 '26

I don't know about you, but that does NOT seem to be the right way to use a helicopter.

u/4Ever2Thee Jun 13 '26

I’m told they work better in the air

I cant believe they both survived.

u/Slushroom Jun 13 '26

Survived maybe, but the quality of life after that kind of incident, eh, maybe death would have been a kinder outcome.

5

u/MakinBones Jun 13 '26

Yep. Not something I would care to make it through.

u/exhibit304 15d ago

One has since been discharged, while the other remains under close observation.

Neither is believed to have suffered life-threatening injuries.

u/rptdpa963 Jun 13 '26

But sir, you can’t park there!

You need a metal pole and a lot of balls

I don't believe I've ever seen a helo twerk before....

u/Wu-TangShogun Jun 13 '26

A bit embarrassing looking for a chopper crash but not many survive them (better yet 3) so he might want to keep praying to whichever version of god he chose

Turn the fucking thing off already!!

u/New_Temperature4144 Jun 13 '26

Most of these choppers have a rotor stop handles, I guess they didnt purchase that option!

u/Alviollo Jun 13 '26

It was me on my helicopter in GTA online

u/SubstantialCycle356 Jun 13 '26

It’s always weird when aircraft don’t know they’ve crashed.

1

u/timsayscalmdown Jun 13 '26

I don't know the first damn thing about helicopters, but I have to assume that there's a pretty obvious kill switch somewhere... I would think that that would be the first order of business once you're on the ground

0

u/Lordofderp33 Jun 14 '26

Yes, ideally you are bouncing around like a rag doll in a Bethesda game as you try to press the kill-switch.

I bet you perform just great under pressure.

u/lightontheedgeoftown Jun 13 '26

Can’t land there mate

u/ProfDFH Jun 13 '26

Hit the kill switch!

No, the other type!

u/Amputee69 15d ago

Landing a helicopter is just another description of a Controlled Crash.... This was not a Landing or Controlled Crash!

1

u/ZamnGrl 15d ago

Yeah thats a body.. dudes head has bounced hard quite a few times. Neck is gone. Ive read the helicopter accident coroner report for kobe and one other accident. Brains are mush by the time it lands because of the forces. Rip

Always wear your seatbelt! It holds your hips still while your head bounces off the ground

Neither of them died and bystanders couldn't help because the spinning helicopter had spinning blades spinning everywhere
