Flying vs. driving

[Penguin]

If you get into a collision while driving and you survive, you get out and walk away.


If you get into a collision while flying in a helicopter and you survive, you still have a 500 foot plummet to Earth ahead of you.


If anyone saw that video of the chopper crash in Phoenix, then you know that the reporter for channel 15 survived the midair collision only to let out a blood curdling scream on live TV as he fell to the earth.

That was awful. I am suprised that this kind of thing doesn't happen more often. In a big city the news helicopters are like flies around poop during police chases. Another thing to blame on OJ. Mr news directors, is it really worth four lives just to have your station covering a police chase?

Whoa, I haven't seen that video. :(
