The helicopter was fine. If I recall, it was God's hill that made it crash.

 

?? No ??

 

Man made machine crashed into a man made ski slope.  Pilot error.

 

A two-year probe by the National Transportation Safety Board found that 'improper planning/decision' by the pilot was the main probable cause of the crash.

Read somewhere that pilot was not certified for flight by instruments for helicopters.

My apartment mate around the time said that someone saw someone suspicious near the helicopter prior to it taking off, thinking sabotage.  But that never panned out.

I challenge any one to play the OPs song, close their eyes, and tell me at what point in the video he starts playing with the guitar BEHIND HIS BACK!!!  Unbelievable.

Thanks for pointing that out.  That's really incredible!
