Flying a fully loaded, minimally powered light single engine helicopter at high altitude toward a positive slope at high speed... WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG!
You’ll fly it into the ground every time!!!!
Im guessing they actually were blinded from the intensity of the sun hitting the slope and didnt actually realise they were that close to the ground, infact i could inagine right where the pilot was looking in the distance to land and just didnt see the ground coming. As in an illussion he was still 50ft higher than he was...
@@HighTowerAU was thinking that as well.. you can see the large reflection going right to the pilots view..
Add in a little density altitude...
Yeah!!! What he said!!!
Give this camera man a reward he has manage to pull off the impossible and actually filming what’s going on!!
lool. mounted cam
I don’t think so
@@brentowen2225 Oh, did watch it again, you are right :D
@@yerayyomismo0923 fax
@@e30kitty so the camera man is artificial, still did a damn fine job of catching the action
One absolute in aviation. You're 100% going to land.
Unless you run out of fuel at escape velocity
unless you die mid flight. sure your body lands, but you don't.

I don't think it counts as 'landing' or even crashing if the plane disintegrates into a million pieces..
Wow my hat's off to these guys for having the balls to demonstrate a crash and burn scenario with a helicopter for us. They must be loaded rich
If they were rich they wouldn’t fly a pos R44😂.
Crash reconstruction actor's have serious ball's
That tends to happen when you simply fly your helicopter into the side of a mountain.
Man didn't even flinch. I think he was blinded by the reflection off the snow and couldn't see the contour of the terrain.
you learn something new every day
I don't know why everyone is dogging on this type of helicopter. It did make it all the way to the scene of the crash.
And it was relatively cheap, why crash an expensive helicopter into a mountain?
And it probably beat the rescue crew by a half an hour, at least.

Love that comment.
P.O.S. I've been on a few, never was a good feeling.
LMAO!
They were stranded for at least 6 hours in that frozen hell, the pilot and his passenger survived but the camera guy lost the coin toss and they ate him..... just waiting for the movie to come out.

@@fuffoon 🤣🤣🤣
how did the camera man lose a coin toss if theres three people, what did they have a three sided coin? would they eat the pilot if the coin landed on its side?
@@Fido4273 if the coin landed on the side the pilot was guaranteed to be turned into poos, check rules for coin tossing old boy, it's an elimination type deal.

They didn't even let him finish it....suspicious....🤔
Shutdown that engine before you push past everyone to bail out!
Why no fuel cut
gotta keep warm somehow
Seemed like that was an auto rotation. Absolutely make sure things aren't still spinning. at least i would.
easy to say when im not in shot and comfortably sitting in my chair.
@@funnyyylock I think it was a loss of power. He was clearly trying to gain altitude but couldn't. With the engine running, I am more worried about a fire starting, which apparently did happen.
Pilot was an absolute coward!
So far with these videos I have learned that beeping noise means you are in big trouble
I think you are on to something. These beepers are causing the crashes! If I ever build one of these I'm leaving the beeper out.
it must be for the way beeping calms nerves
Yeah, that beeping means someone pressed the crash button. Really sad that they keep installing it.
Jokes aside, if you hear a beeping in a helicopter, it's likely the low rotor rpm alarm, which probably means you lost the engine. In a helicopter like that one, you've only got one to begin with, and even if you had 2, you likely aren't staying in the air long with just the one left.
It's a good thing that anyone is able to walk away from a Robinson helicopter, regardless of its disposition.
Amen Brother! That is one of the very first things my dad taught me. NEVER step into a Robinson. They are essentially in auto rotation all the time.
@@Footy_Fan When I first saw one and without knowing its accident history, its appearance, looked like a home-built hack job. They seem cheap and nasty. One thing that stood out, was the very tall mast. It just looks odd.
@@Footy_Fan The old saying - _"If It Looks Right, Then It Flies Right"_ , could not be more true regarding a Robinson. They definitely don't look right.
@@channelsixtysix066 the mast was the first thing I noticed as well, my friend. I agree 100% that they look like a cheap DIY home kit.
@@channelsixtysix066 truer words were never spoken, my friend.
One of my friends died in an R22. HE was ALWAYS pushing his luck in fixed wing aircraft. Can’t do that in these.
What was he doing in the fixed wing aircraft?
There's old pilots & bold pilots but few bold pilots live to be old
Darwin loves people like this.
Leaving the ground in a Robinson is pushing your luck according to some. Sad about your buddy.
@@FinalFront We started in Fixed Wing. I stayed in fixed wing. He continued collecting certifications. I think he died in 1989, 33 years ago. Super smart guy. Brilliant Mind. The problem was not his intelligence. It was believing he was in invincible. Youth and having unlimited money can alter your Worldview. You change after you watch your friends die. You become wiser and realize Life is but a vapor and is precious.
One min they are flying an incredible creation of flight, the next min they are in the stone age.
Ice age 😛
Hah! You read my mind!
Robinsons are incredible creations of unsafe powered flight.
Correction: Ice age
they are amazing and safe aircraft. Sadly humans are extremely stupid and some get into the cockpit of them.@@LateNightCable
that fire would be of handy on that snowy mountains. R44 takes you to your destination and keeps you warm.
Robinson's have the most simple performance charts of any helicopter. One glance would tell him this is a no go.
Good thing they got a fire going.
SuperSpeedMonkey LMAO !!!!!
You can always count on Robinson for that in a crash. Time for upgraded fuel cells.
Marshmallow time!!!!!!!
@@ol-man-duffyj688 exactly, they always catch fire
Bruh.....Lol
Recent studies have shown that a high proportion of air accidents like this happen close to the ground.
Can see the ground coming.
No wonder. If the ground ran away there would be no accidents. 🙄
Gravity is working 24/7
You mean close to the moon.
Because clouds are softer than terrain...
I reckon a multitude of things: No power check before hand considering high DA they were operating at, lack of depth perception due to snow, even a tad of overpitching right before impact as it seems to yaw to the right and you hear the rpm's drop.
I'm a forest firefighter from Canada, I get into a lot of choppers and this is always in the bck of my mind.... very lucky.
they should switch off the engine and close the fuel line
That's one hell of a realistic flight sim cockpit build!! 😮🤔👍😎😊
Too many mechanical parts on a helicopter, good ride, but I could never relax thinking about all the linkages, pins, nuts and bolts. I’ll stick to fixed wings.
Just thinking about how Helicopters basically beat nature into submission, and what happens when nature gets tired of it... Instead of two winds that generate lift whenever you're moving, you have 2-4 wings that generate lift by moving independently of the airframe. Way too much of a balancing act for me, despite the numbers.
Here here
@@xX_Gravity_Xx -Kobe would agree on that.....
@@robertbacke5015 his crash was pilot mistake
@@xX_Gravity_Xx Agreed! Helo is not so much an “aircraft” as it is a machine that leaves the ground for a while. It is widely accepted that helicopters don’t “fly”; rather, they are so damned ugly the Earth repels them.
The captain is the first to get off, he must be a relative of Schettino.
He was practically sitting on the guy to his left, I would expect him to get out first
i dont think this is a massive cruise ship but alright
I’m guessing he was trying to see if the fuel tanks had ruptured yet. That’s what I’d do. And you aren’t much help from hanging in your seat.
@@tylerw1418 Still should have turned the fuel off, pulled the mixture and turned the battery off before before bailing out
@@lighty9023 I didn’t say he shouldn’t have.
If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing
There’s a few more lines to that statement lol. Something about flying the plane again makes a great landing.
Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing and if you can reuse the aircraft , that's a bonus!
If you can land a aerial vehicle where its fully functional that's fucking excellent
If you land an aerial vehicle with minor damage but you walk out of it that's good
If you banged it up more and your walkers a bit wonky that's OK!
If you pancaked it...well I don't have anything more to say then.
They will be sledding away.
Even if it's 100 miles?
Nice of the pilot to get himself out, pushing past the passengers without even shutting everything down first. No wonder the thing ended up burnt out.
they were sideways so when he undid his seatbelts he just dropped, also when he got out he pulled the passenger out faster
@@txerrible1386 he still should have carried out shutdown procedures
@@tonyquinn5715 yeah you tell him that when your fucking sideways on a cliff after crashing a helicopter
@@txerrible1386 Not before falling onto his passenger and squishing him against glass
@@txerrible1386 that wasn't even a cliff. His duty as a PIC is to carry out certain actions, even after a crash. That includes collecting any supplies to help your survival (which I assume is a must to bring when flying over a *** mountain top filled with snow). If you leave everything inside to burn, good luck surviving up there.
Thanks for the extremely detailed description of what happened……
That should buff right out 👍🏼
Spaz 12 good one!
Seen this type of thing before.
He was snow blind against a white backround ...features are not as they appear depth perception is next near impossible to guage.
You can tell..he could not see how far away he was from the snow. He just flew it straight in head first and got a big surprise..I hope no one was seriously hurt .
Sim One. Agree.
Thanks
Precisely what I thought. I fly in Nepal and it's pretty tough when it's all white.
I remember flyin' with my father in a Cub and he would always take tree branches for me to throw out so we could have a line of sight against the snow! And yes,we had our USAF issued Pilot's sunglasses,lol.Elemendorf AFB,AK from 57-59 incredible era,,,,,incredible beauty,,,,

Glad all made it out.
Excellent video.
Thanks
Lmao. The cameraman was like “damn we crashed... look at all this damage....
Yo but this view tho”
it has nothing to do with the helicopter. It has to do with the way you fly it. I have flown a R22 to considerably high altitude density in the alps and you can land well above 3000 m if you know what you are doing.
Almost all copter crashes are the result of pilot making mistakes, not machine failure.
What you said is true for all aircraft. It is how it is operated that will determine the outcome. NTSB will determine the details of failure and I feel it is unfair and unprofessional to speculate on the cause, as the media and others often do.
...I live at 2896 m...guess I could get home?...
I've landed a R22 near the peak of Thabana Ntlenyana (around 11,000') in Lesotho. Minimal fuel and I weighed 70kg at the time!
@@steveb1739 the "I weighed 70kg at the time" is something familiar to me!!!
The R22 has a very bad track record. Unfortunately not all pilots in all situations will know what they are doing and very experienced pilots will also screw up. Given that the R22 is cheap to operate, they are flown a lot by inexperienced pilots. That R22 accidents have nothing to do with the helicopter itself is a bit of a silly statement, it has everything to do with it. That pieces are not falling off the helicopter by themselves due to flawed design does not excuse it either. Some aircraft are very easy to screw up with, the R22 is one of them. Its accident rate speaks for itself.
Self proclaimed Robinson experts please take a number and get in line....
Yeah, half of them are dead. Get it?
@@badeugenecops4741 Yes that's why there called ''The Death Egg''
Don't need to be an expert to identify basic mechanical inefficiencies
Hi. Im new to this kind of thing. What are great brands of helicopters?
Noticed that it didn't sound like he switched off the master. Big mistake. The fault here isn't the chopper. It was bad decision making on the part of the pilot in numerous areas, and I hope some instructor does a through de-brief with him about them.
yeah i saw that too
the pilot just wanted to separate themselves from the cash, and didn't kill power at all, so high pressure fuel and hydraulic pumps tend to feed a mighty nice fire.
same a s a race car , there is a reason you kill the entire electrical system via disconnect after a crash.
You mean a Helicopter. A chopper is a tool you cut wood with. You watch too much MSM.
@@PeterPan-wh1sg Get to the Choppa!!!
I like how the pilot performed an elbow drop on the front passenger before exiting first.
I think the pilot was in the left seat and followed the passenger out.
0:28 pilot thinking to himself: "looks like were having a very long walk down the mountain"
Those look like South Africa's Drakensberg mountains. Awesome mountains!
They look like this could have been somewhere along the Berg.
There was an even higher range in southern Africa that was as high as the Himalayas before being eroded down to hills.
The mountain came up and met him. How polite.
It appears the "break-away" windows worked as designed. ;-)
In my humble opinion: High altitude approach + higher than normal approach speed on landing + probably didn't balance helicopter before take off + slight yaw to right upon ground contact and caught a skid (helicopters with skids can "slide" in, you actually perform this during your check ride as part of full stop and sliding stop auto-rotation) + soft landing zone contributing to catching skid = dynamic rollover.
I kind of wonder if the pilot was trying to fly into HIGE but blindness from the sun off of the snow prevented him from accurately gauging the terrain height. Because he more-or-less drove it straight in without flinching.
Kind of like amphibious/float aircraft having no sense of height over glass-smooth water.
Did they end up eating each other??
lol
Haha
Not this time. No A1 Steak Sause
00:27 the rear passenger holding up phone and filming while the chopper is crashing on its side lol...
As a Helo pilot of 24 years, that was pilot error.
As a helo pilot of 44 years, I agree. (Ft. Rucker Class 78-47, grad 6/79. UH-1H. (AH-1G transition after.)
I am not a pilot unless you count remote control choppers, I am going to assume that gives me even less credit as to my opinion but I'm going to give it anyway!! Lots of people have commented that it was the type of aircraft plus speed and visual issues basically saying everything that is possible is to blame! That may not have been the best choice helicopter to be up there, but in the hands of a good pilot it is perfectly capable of landing safely and returning back to where they came from. That was the fault of the pilot I'm sorry but you can't say otherwise if you watch the video!
@@mauryamckendrick5446 exactly.
I rag on Robinson helicopters all the time
but this one is pure stubidity. Pilot error.
They will sell one to anybody. That is part
of the problem known as the Robinson death
wish problem.
I know nothing about aeronautics, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night...
Pilot: So what do think of the views? Aren't they great?
Passenger: I really really really have to take a piss!
Luckily they were able to fix the problem and continued on their way albeit with melted seats.
What a polite pilot. The way he rushed outside to greet the passengers as they disembarked.
I think the pilot was in the left seat and followed the passenger out.
@@stevenbrucci helicopter captains are usually seated in the RH seat.
Any landing you can walk away from, is a good landing.
That said, it seems like this could have been avoided with proper preparation, planning, and piloting.
Ah, the ol" PPP&P!
Get closer to the fire, gonna be up there for awhile. 😶
Passenger: "Hey, should we look out for that mountain up ahead?"
Pilot: "Huh?"
There's not enough money in the world to get me in an R-44.
They seem so unstable or unpredictable.
Lol r44s are perfectly safe
@@Robochop-vz3qm Even the shittiest chopper on the market would be better in every way and more controllable than an R44. That’s why when you have “mastered” it, you can fly just about anything and deal with any situation. That’s what a flight instructor told me at least.
Or any Robinson for that matter. They have a terrible safety record.
@@aconite72 ok thanks
I'm not a pilot ,but I have watched every video of Yellow Pilot..so this is my ignorant guess of what occured.
High altitude started to max out power .instead of turning around immediately and start going down the slope gaining speed and lift they used collective to try and mantain altitude that caused greater loss of power reducing rpms and hitting the snow.. remember I'm just guessing I'm not a pilot ,but I stayed at the Holiday inn last night!!!🤣😂🤣.now all those experts out there can correct me if I'm off track
You’re pretty darn observant. I’ll not leave any corrections. 🤙🏻
correct
I watch yellow pilot also and I totally agree with you.that pilot had no business flying with so much weight in high cold mountains without the proper training and a planned escape route
The cameraman got the scene footage in only 1 take! That's professionalism!
It was mounted, props to whoever grabbed it before the aircraft went up in flames though.
Spinal surgeons love Robinson helicopters. They are the most creative way to really serious spinal injuries.
Robinson is the only aircraft POH where "landing" is listed under "emergency procedures"
R-44 has plenty of power. This is an R-66. It was not the helicopters fault. PILOT SHOULD HAVE OBSERVED THE H/V DIAGRAM.
No its not
This is R44
@@keenxiandreefuego3731 you can hear the turbine whine after the crash.
@@jimmydtaylor2 yes why did he not shut them down and reduce the risk of fire!
Make fun of Robinson but their no frills early entry into the market made helicopter flight possible for thousands of not rich people. The R-22 was the least expensive and least costly to own production helicopter. That was Robinsons market strategy and why they are so successful. There is a demand for affordable aircraft. I got their brochure literature when they introduced the R-22 and the R-44 -was still being designed.
"Turn off engine" isn't part of the Post-Crash check list?
What goes up, must come down. We haven't left one up there yet.
This one is not coming back down. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyager_2
R66, tried to do a downwind landing at 10 000ft with 3 pax onboard, simply ran out of power
Hi. Im new to this kind of thing. What are great brands of helicopters?
This is called CFIT. Controlled Flight Into Terrain. It's not clear to me if they lost power prior to this happening or if it was pilot error. I'm assuming there was a student and instructor and they didn't seem to apply any correction before the terrain so it looks like they expected it and did have a problem. They had 3 (or possibly 4) souls on board so quite heavily laden. I wonder if they exceeded the service altitude for the load or lost engine power. They did not have a rotor tail strike because the flight was not rotating out of control. Did Blancolirio do an analysis of this one? Was there any radio recorded? This is unfortunately an R44 living down to its reputation and why I will never get in one. Good everyone got out by the looks of it.
Breaking down in the middle of a lake is pretty shitty. I just spent the night on the lake. I cant imagine getting stuck on top of a frozen mountain. I think I would just take a door off and sled my ass to the bottom.
Considering the fact that any landing you can walk away from is considered a good landing I think he did an excellent job if you compare the amount of damage done by this guy......maybe turning off the engine before running away might have helped prevent a fire (maybe) but, as someone else pointed out, at least they were warm until they got rescued.
Next time I would try and pick a higher spot to land but I would go in an R22....now, that would be interesting to watch....?!?!?!
Are you sure? If statistics are to be used, the cause of the crash in the first place was due to the pilot
@@frontagulus
.....I was beeing sarcastic.
Robinson Helicopter when crashing at the foot of the mountain is simply not enough
Takeoff is optional. Landing is required. Any word on what happened? Looks like he caught a skid in the snow and rolled it.
That WAS a crash and burn. Not clickbait. Thank you.
How do they decide who to eat first?
The pilots skills are useless now so...
I would rather walk than fly in a Robinson
Hi. Im new to this kind of thing. What are great brands of helicopters?
I am guessing you don't know ANYTHING about helicopters let alone the Robinson brand.
As a retired commercial fixed and rotor pilot of 33 years . 95% of accidents are caused . This pilot should not have (PUT ) himself and passenger in this situation. Very lucky they lived through this .
My question is. Did they learn anything from this event ?
PS: I have well over 400 landings with a BC , Canada FBO . I was very well trained on glacier landings and it is a very strict procedure.
I would do about 4 to 5 landings each day . And absolutely each one Is different . Mountain weather changes constantly.
The first procedure every morning would be to mark our landing area by over shooting and dropping large tree branches at the touchdown area as well .
Oh, never never fly up a mountain ridge at a 90 degree. At a 45 degree and always in aviation have an escape route. Shit always happens I say.
It is impossible to correctly establish where to snow surface begins without dark contrast areas .
Under powered aircraft with an inexperienced/underpowered pilot. Glad nobody was toasted.
Is they undieded or unlifeable deaded forever ?
Looks like they "landed" in Erie, PA in the summer.
Hey, from Erie here. Be specific....looks like July !!!!😎
Was this a power failure or the pilot misjudging height above bright snow or pilot's improper approach to a high DA LZ?
Wow! What a view!! Before . . . well, …you know 🚁🔥
The wife said " You would have to crash on the top of a mountain!"
Expensive BBQ firestarter.
They should send this guy to record all the fistfights on Worldstar.
I can't find the NTSB report on this, where was this and what was the altitude of the crash site?
Looks like the video skipped over to an engine failure and autorotation to the surface.
No, it's a classic case of altitude and not enough power, also known as settling with power. He fucked up.
What they found the video then went looking for the frozen bodies?
Take off is optional. Landing is mandatory.
Gotta watch out for those upslope wind burbles when you're working around ridge lines and peaks. They'll getcha in a heartbeat.
Ok, we escaped and got some sweet footage. Now what?
“We slowly die a painful death, but to avoid that i have a plan. CANNABALISM, if you’re the first one to die I’ll eat you, if im the first one to die then eat me”
I cannot believe r-44s are still allowed in the sky.
Why??? It’s a perfectly safe helicopter. What’s not safe is a pilot who thinks they can exceed the aircraft’s limitations, as well as their own. Just like a gun doesn’t kill people, but people kill people. Same goes for a Robinson helicopter or any other type aircraft. Sure mechanical failure of the machine may occurs, but it’s rare. 99% of the time it’s pilot error and not fault of mechanical error. That goes for guns, planes, cars, power tools and helicopters.
Well, sports motorbikes are still allowed on open roads I believe?…
Will this incident make his insurance go up?
I'm no pilot etc, but in this instance (where everyone is able to get out in one piece) should the pilot not shut down the engine and systems (or try to) before he exits the craft.. again I'm not a pilot but would think there must be some sort of procedure if safe to do so.....
Yes, the pilot failed on many aspects during this flight!!
Thumbs up to the cynical, dark humored commenters.😂👍
My kind of people!!!
Usually they crash at the airport, and it sucks. On top of a snow covered mountain, Dang!
I've been flying Robinsons for years, never had anything happen. Good maintainers, consistent checks, and most importantly... don't fly like a dope. This was some cowboy shit.
The reason he crashed... is because on his initial decent he failed to add correct power throughout...
These are your torque settings for this type of shit (aprox, but pretty damn close) for a good mountain decent:
Start decent (reduce to 60%) -> half way 85% -> land 65-70%. He went 60 -> 70 -> 65, critical error.
Where did this take place?
outside of the hover out of ground effect chart's limitations
Well, at least they can warm their hands.
Didn’t even care about the homie ina back they left his ass
I k r
Total dick move by the pilot, he even pushed in front of the guy next to him! I’d have been swinging for the prick as soon as I got out!
has terrible hand placement as well. looks like it just flew it right into the ground smh
In Argentina, Robinson helicopters were used by the Federal Police . There were a lot of accidents, but usually, due to the unsafe flying of the pilots.
I can’t believe this aircraft is still able to be flown given the death trap it is. Lucky this time.
What kind of death trap a R-44 is?
Never go in any aircraft where the pilot insists on having their GoPro recording. I've seen so many accidents where the pilot was more concerned with how they looked on camera than how they were controlling the aircraft...
This is a good policy for almost every activity. I wouldn't trust a person who wanted to video a conversation to talk as openly and honestly. Part of the reason i'm reluctant to get a dash-cam for the car.
This was a un-forecasted Gravity Gust.
Did they have to eat the dead before they could hike down in the spring?
*This is normal for R44*
Except this isn’t an R44.
@@jimmydtaylor2 No one asked you ya muppet
These flight Sims almost look real these days.
Everyone is blaming the helicopter but they don't crash themselves. Lack of experience is definitely the problem here, I'd be willing to bet this was his first high altitude landing and you see the consequences. I know that I will not get into one of these helicopters unless I'm in the front seat to monitor the actions of the pilot due to the difficulty level of this type of aircraft. USE your gauges and your heads people
another R44 just went down yesterday. the whole dam tail boom flew off at about three hundred feet. that bird practically free fell from almost two hundred feet. the wreck was burnt to a crisp. and so were the occupants
