NZ squirell crash.

close vid of the recent crash in aukland, thankfully no deaths.

It was helping install a giant Christmas tree on Auckland's waterfront when its blades appeared to catch cables attached to scaffolding causing it to break up about 25ft above ground.

if you pause around 8 seconds you can see the wire being blown in to the central rotor assembly.

Wow - it was amazing how quickly that tail came off. Glad the pilot was OK though - he was thrown about quite a bit.
