Where was the injured hiker? Video is just 2 helicopters flying too close to eachother.

2 minutes of spinning and the pilot says "fuck it, we'll let him hang" and off they go.

That's a hell if a fucking Ride, right there... next stop for that ride is 6 Flags.

OMG My wife and I can’t stop laughing. I’m going to burn in hell for this one...

Headache at best, brain trauma at worst. |

They went for a hike but got a six flags ride instead
edit: beat! lol |

I wonder if he stopped spinning or at least slowed down once they got moving.
Guessing there was some kind of aerodynamic influence going on from the more or less straight downwash and the increasing RPMs as he got closer. |

I would think that could kill a person. I've read about experiments on centrifugal forces and G forces and was surprised at what can kill you.

What. The. Fuck.
Those fuckers should get their winch taken away. Make them find a place to land the damn thing. Fuck. |

To stop the spin you have to move the hoist cable in the opposite direction of rotation (much harder to do as the cable gets shorter). If you can’t stop it, transitioning into forward flight should slow then stop the spin. The trick is not to let it get that fast of a spin to begin with.

I don't know the specifics in this case but when I would hike I saw too many morons in flip flops and maybe a big gulp in the Arizona heat.
They recently had a rescue where the sign specifically noted to not wear flip flops, but hey that's for other people right? |

Note to self: No matter how tired or injured you think you are, walk down off the mountain under your own power. |

Fire officials say the woman was taken to a trauma center for evaluation after she was removed from the mountain in a "screamer suit". View Quote |
