At least everybody was ok. You guys see the helicopter crash that happened during filming of a military based reality show on the discovery channel?  Killed 3 people.

Just a point of note, that is a Cobra Helicopter. not apache.

Where is that show from?  I know there is British and American versions.  Is that some kind of syndicatin from Japan?

It's the Korean version of Top Gear, but something a bit strange about that video, it maybe a hoax ! :dunno:

I am not trying to make light of a helicopter crash.  I am glad everyone was ok.

What cracks me up is when they race a hot car against a helicopter or a fighter jet or something.  Helicopters aren't all that fast anyway and jet fighters have a relitively slow acceleration.

Why do you think that the Navy has to throw fighters off of aircraft carriers with steam catapults.
