i know when i was watching it i thought they were dead.. because 1, it slammed down on that roof hard.. and 2 whenever it fell off it went nose first, the last thing i thought would happen is them walking out of it

it crashed because of the tail rotor failing.. the tail rotor keeps the helicopter balanced (so that it doesnt shake all over the place and crash..) if uve watched a film like BHD u will c the effect it has whenever its lost..

well apparently thats what happened, says in the article that moments bfore the pilot reported a fault in tail rotor bfore the crash, but when i saw it i thought NO WAY they were alive..

oh i kno this sounds wierd.. but if the heli didnt roll off building it would hav been a gr8 crash landing
