Why they keep the Crowd back

R44 prang, Fire, 4pax - Nill fatal. https://www.liveleak.com/view?t=eQbf_1525655974

 

Watching the vid, when I saw the crowd of females wearing highly flammable wedding dress' run up to the prang I nearly said to the screen - Stay Back.. :ahoh:

Looks like the tail rotor sucked in a flag!

Brides and helicopters are a bad combination

I notice the military guys were the first to run away from the scene.

Why didn't someone think to turn the master switch off? Seemed to have plenty of time.

 Plenty of hot engine to start a fire. Nev

Maybe the only pilot there was the one who crashed

I saw that the red beacon was flashing - thought that would be meaningful to a "first responder". Perhaps I think too much.

 Good spotting. I didn't look hard enough, and I don't like re running those sorts of images unless I"m researching.. Most Helicopters destruct violently. The occupants get thrown around  most times. The pilot might not have been in a good state to do the right thing there.. Get the electrics off even before contact IF YOU CAN.. You don't want fuel pouring out of a cracked fuel line or fuel tank, with hot exhaust pipes etc. people running to the scene wouldn't know where the "crash bar" or master switch would be or what it does.. It was fairly likely it would catch fire, with that amount of damage. Nev
