An UH-60 crashed last friday in Colombia during a take off from a military base, 10 people were aboard, nobody got killed. Here is the video of the accident, seems like the helicopter suffered a "stall" and crashed back to the ground:

Hey, if this was New York and he came down on the LIE, they would have found it on blocks and stripped.
Reminds me of the Jackie Stewart (among others), comment that you should look where you want to go, not at what you don't want to hit. If he was 40' left I wonder if he may have maintained flight?Live, from a grassy knoll somewhere near you.

Didn't fly, no one died...he said he was sorry.
You already know these suckers are designed to take a slap on the ground...don't know if the seats are sprung though...could jolt the spine.
Looks like he freaked and pulled the nose up trying to lose the ground effect and tail struck the ground?
