I can say for a fact that hearing air traffic control congratulate you for your successful crash landing are the most powerful words you will ever hear. When i was 16 I was in a tour helicopter crash and I had my eyes closed when we crash landed. the only reason I knew I was alive was that I could hear air traffic control saying "beautifully done God bless". I opened my eyes and could see emergency vehicles racing towards us and a crowd of people clapping and cheering that we were alive. Nothing will ever kill my faith in humanity after that day.
I used to work on oil rigs and have been in quite a few rough helicopter flights and landings and I’ve got to say all the pilots were exceptional at flying and all of them were The calmest people I’ve ever met and didn’t seem to have any nerves.
The news chopper pilot deserves some real serious kudos for his great job of landing without injuring others...
I piloted Hueys for 12 years, good job guys.
Those naval boys have got some balls. Landing a bird on the back of a ship in a 30 ft sea takes some nerve.
Royal Danish Navy, did what the US said could not be done :-D But I am in awe and envy all helo pilots everywhere. Wish I was them :-D

The definition of a Helicopter is as follows: One million random parts whirring around an oil leak waiting for metal fatigue to happen.
Wow No.3 is outstanding! Obviously the rear boom is faulty and the pilot struggles to keep the helicopter from spinning - yet in the end he releases the pedal for a moment to let the copter turn around to a full horizontal stop just before he sets it to the ground. Impressive skills!
KTLA pilot....no words. Walking away...and he flew the shirt out of that craft to find a safe spot while it was on fire....definitely #1. Love heli's...and their operators. Wow...
It was only smoke from a hydraulic leak, no fire
Dude in the number 5 news chopper did a better parking job than 99% of BMW drivers.
Chey Thompson we know where you live
Lol don't need to own a BMW to know how badly the drivers park. 😂😂
lol! BMW = Break My Windows
OP
I resent your initial comment... when I had my BMW I usually managed to park the lines between my car.
I have a neighbor with a bmw. Always driving fast thinking its a porsche lmao
Bravo to all the pilots in this video
In the first clip, I didn't notice the deckhand staying as flat as possible until after the helo was stopped and he began to stand up. Dudes got balls. Had no place to run, but still has big balls
I think i would have been in the sea. He was right next to the tail rotor as it hit the deck.
I would have seriously considered jumping off
Same, didn't even see him until he stood up. Got chills because first thing that came to mind is what would I have done. Probably would have at least tried hanging onto something and hanging off the side, but this dude just knelt and accepted it. Has balls for sure.
The first clip is actually an aborted take off, or a major screw up after having actually landed. czcams.com/video/s_GRRzmjt6I/video.html has a slightly longer clip then shown here.
#3 and #1 is just incredible pilot skill and keeping one's head.
#2 I wouldn't quite consider as an emergency landing as it looked like a perfectly operating helicopter trying to land in seriously adverse conditions. Very different then trying to land with damaged controls and your engine catching fire.
conspiracies are just great stories
Landing on the helo-pad of that rolling deck was one of the most impressive demonstrations of piloting skill I have ever seen.
That was actuelly the replacement for the Lynx helicopter - the new danish Sea Hawk and not an emergency landing put a controlled one. They did as a test when they had to choose the new helicopter for the Royal Navy.
"Didn't study the helicopter enough" you mistook a Seahawk for a Lynx? buddy you didn't study the helicopter at all.
I spent 4 years of my life watching Navy pilots do what seemed impossible. Those guys are the best hands down.
I remember having helis bring our supplies. We didnt have an actual helo deck. So the pilot would fly about 25 ft above the deck until the load was unhooked on deck. The whole time he was flying sideways at 15 knots give or take!!
Yes I think you are correct. I was on an older Adams class Guided Missle Cruiser USS Sellers. It was decomissioned long ago. It has a nice internet web site, check it out. ID number was DDG 11.
That Navy pilot did a fantastic job landing in the heavy swell's of the sea on that ship. Wow
It is not an emergency landing. This is 'just' a 'SHOL' landing. These are 'just' another day at the office near Faroe Isl. in spring and fall seasons.
#5 could have turned deadly for everyone involved. Tail rotor struck the ground and sent the heli out of torque. Thank goodness for the safety net and quick reaction from the pilot slamming it on the ground. Look at the main rotor and how close it was pitched towards the guy taking cover.
As for #1, whenever you see smoke like that coming out of the turbines it's ALWAYS a problem. It already started losing power and the pilot should have engaged auto-rotation procedure immediately. He was probably busy looking at instrumentation and didn't begin auto-rotation until 3:55. Must have been a great feeling coming so close to the ground and realizing you still had enough power to pick a proper landing spot, great work!
"SIR. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IS ON THEIR WAY I CALLED THEM." Great job lady. You saved the day.
To be fair, it is the only thing she could have done. Atleast she did not do what most people these days would do which is to pull out their smart phone and hit record.
Fenrir HAHAHAHAHAAHA so sad but true.
You could hear the sirens while she was saying that
I bet she was not the only one that called. With all that smoke I bet the 911 switch board lite up like a Christmas tree.
@@TwoPlusTwoEqualsFive32 whats wrong with recording?
if someone didnt record it, we wouldnt be able to see it
Unbelievable landings. This pilots deserves a reward. 💙
#1 rule in news reporting. Don't become the news.

... unless you are over Hollywood. No better spot to have an incident and then, predictably, make a movie or at least a scene in a movie or TV series about that, no matter if they already did it before.
@Hugh Mongus You are imagining way too many things, I'm afraid.
First, I am afraid that it is naïve believing that you know well enough a stranger you are in contact with for the first time so as to judge him right out of the blue with so much self-confidence. Make well sure first and know that people well before making any judgements. That said, I refuse to become popular, certainly (another thing is that people take my comments wrong and make me popular against my own will, but that's not my problem). Camera-suckers (what you call "selfish individualists") are those who suffer from an over-proportioned ego and want to make it public and thus become famous, and that's definitely NOT my style, since as I said before I prefer to stay in the shadows.
In other words, it´s not my fault if some over-interpret my comments distorting reality (and making a Hollywood movie out of my life). Having some imagination is good, but keeping it well under control is even better.
And then that part you mentioned on an accident and killing people...It impacted me for what it literally means (needless to use any bit of imagination): "If at least you had mentioned that the best reason why the best place to have an accident was over hollywood was because you might be lucky and kill a bunch of Jews while falling.You might've had my thumbs up".
Were you really conscious of what you were typing then? I hope that you were, because it sounded brutal to me. Not even as a joke would it be passable (and nope, I am not a jew). Be careful with freedom of speech, because it has its limits of tolerance.
That all said, I am concentrating on the incident itself, which was certainly risky enough so as to make it yet worse.
And now tell me: isn't it true that at times Hollywood film directors become crazy at shocking moments in real life and want to make their own version in a movie? That's undeniable, and there are hundreds of examples about it (natural disasters, exaggerated dangerous animals like crocodiles, anacondas and so on, attacks on civilians like terrorist attacks, wars and lesser incidents).
But don't deviate any more and concentrate on the video itself.
@Hugh Mongus Freedom of speech DOES have its limits. Have you heard of verbal aggression, or simply insulting? We're in a world were freedom of speech is been left too much loose and uncontrolled.
"I won't give a shit about it". Wildcard phrase for those who have no strong argument against to show.
About 15 minutes out from a firebase in Vietnam, the Huey I was on got hit and started burning. Our pilot made a u-turn and started back. We were losing altitude. I was a grunt just going back out to the boonies. We were just high enough to get over the wire at the end of the runway. The firetrucks were on each side as we were going. Our pilot didn't bother to hover. He just dropped it and we slid in. Me, and 5 other grunt, just took off running. Considering the amount of ammo, frags, claymores, and C4 we were carrying, we didn't want to stick around. Never found out who the pilot was but I hope he made it back to the world in one piece.
It's a miracle No. 3 managed to minimize casualties.
tremendous pilot skill
Every one of these pilots are badasses! Nerves of steel!! Kudos!
Incredible the pilot of the ASTAR, there is a lot of smoke, and he completely masters his descent, and quietly he lands on tiptoe on the ground, he still does not panic and he opens the panels! ! well done, hats off to the artist!!
This the top #1 emergency narration effort.
#5 WAS AMAZZING!!
The pilot of a Bell 206B JetRanger III activated the emergency floating system and made an emergency landing in the water, 10 miles from Sabine pass, Gulf of Mexico, TX.
He and two passengers transferred to a life raft and were pickup up by the USCG.
The background music seems MASH inspired. I just keep thinking of that bubble top medivac chopper from the opening.
That military pilot landing on the stern of that ship is a straight boss, but I got to say, the camera man in the next clip, is badass lol. That continuous pan, wow!
I wonder why he don't land in the mountains, was far too risky to land where he did
*I DON'T KNOW* but I think they're at *FRANKLIN AND HIGHLAND*
Who told you that?
u sure lol
OR... Fountain and Island.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
totally couldn't tell over the sound of him eating the microphone.
That news copter one was no joke, wow. Alot of amazing videos love them and man can't imagine the stress
These pilots are very brave and I commend them on job well done 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
good coverage of the news helicopter that had engine fire/smoke
cheers
Good job Tim.
Great pilot
Number 3 I love you.
🤭Aplausos 👏 👏👏 unreal..great job 👏👏👏 ☺️.!!!!
5 amazingly skilled helicopter pilot
I like the Jet Ranger Easter basket.
I'm glad the clips that didn't make it into the video, was shown at the end.
4:55 look how the cameraman stopped at the hot girls on the billboard for a second lol
haha, righ! he zoomed out.
Asbjørn Andersen yea lol
Cause of the smoke blocked the view
7:41 landing without engine? Amazing
Hi good morning thanks by share this video,,, congrautlations for the pilots,,, incredible men,,,
Amazing hability,,, and experience to have the control in this kind of aircraft,,, greetings for the people who made posible this video, and to for the fans,,, have a good time and so long,,your friend Oscar de Playa del Carmen Q R México,,,
Nice TD background music!
7:32 That is a Mh-53 belonging to the USMC, the largest in their fleet of helicopters. Amazing.
The first one was definitely in a helicopter disaster compilation. The helicopter nearly hit the crewman lying on the ground in the background.
"And here are some that didn't quite make the list"
*proceeds to show's landings of a much higher skill*
That was one hell of a pilot that landed aft on that ship in such heavy seas with the deck pitching up and down like that. Insane...
KUDOS. To these great pilots...thats training to KEEP CALM and THINK ...hats off to all pilots and their training coaches.....Our military men and women too.....
Amazing.
I know some of those guys.
lol that MD500 landing on the street by the white suv was like "sup ladies"
I was thinking more like "FUCK YA I'M ALIVE!!!"
lol that too for sure!
I thought he was going to try and parallel park behind it.
GTA 5 player for sure.
Alberto H lol
You made number 3, Art!!!!
Keep up with the videos. Great Work a Canadian Tums Up.!
1
dude number 3 is insane!
8:29 such a cute basket... awww 🥰
Awesome pilot landing on the navy ship with it rolling and bobbing in the ocean swells.
BRAVO !!!!
Excellent film footage and sound.
Excellent
Impressive, I've always liked helicopters
In the early 1960s, my dad survived a crash landing of a CH-47 Chinook in the US Army, 101st Airborne. It couldn't hover due to mechanical failure, so the pilot had to glide down like a plane into a corn field. My dad still regrets not shaking the pilot's hand for saving all their lives.
Helicopter crash survivors...that's a small club, isn't it?
Id rather crash in a plane than a helicopter. Dad is lucky.
haaahaha that guy threw his arms up when he got off that deathtrap lmao :p that was fn hilarious
A ton of good luck ,and a lot of skill
Fly copter fly!!!
That first one. Did anyone see the guy on the pad? He was flat for part of it. Talk about luck
These are awesome! I love these videos!
7:45 me landing everybody in arms
"Welp We're alive . . ."
Wait you play pubg?
Wdez he meant arma
Complements to the 3rd pilot, he executed the landing with Txt book fashion, great work.
The stuck pedal enstrom was extremely impressive. If you’re a heli pilot you’ll know :)
Yeah, I couldn't work out why the guy talking said "he got it down, that's all that matters" I could understand that statement if he fucked it up, but the guy nailed it.
My first heli flight lesson was in an old Enstrom. I was trying to figure out what was wrong. It was a stuck pedal? Damn! That would suck.
I guess the tactic in that situation is to maintain forward motion? Hate to say it, but I am fairly certain no one would have walked away had I been at the controls!
Well the idea would be if you had a right stuck pedal to roll the throttle off and that would keep you straight so you could autorotate...Left is trickier. You’d roll off slightly, which would increase your left turn at first but the idea is to stall your tail rotor with lower rpms to stop the spin. Left pedal is by far the worse of the two.
Ryan Hampson No, that’s not the way for left (power) stuck pedal. The guy in the Enstrom messed it up. He was lucky he was in a very sturdy aircraft, and lucky all round. Proper procedure would have been to mix in Collective at the end, which would have arrested his left yaw. And land at that moment.
Very nice musik
I will say that landing on a moving ship is always more amazing than landing in a parking lot because your engine is on fire.
good flying skills at 1.36.
I am seeing Robinson and Bell 206 helicopters in water... can single engined helicopter fly over waters... please clarify...
That’s cool how one of the clips that didn’t make it was in my state! Always neat to see something like that.
I've been in helicopter landings on the rear and the front of ships.. some serious pucker factor for sure!
That Channel 5 chopper really wanted to be the story and not report the story lol. Not bad landing for an emergency. NERVES OF STEEL AND BALLS IS THE ONLY THING I CAN SAY FOR HELICOPTER PILOTS.
Happy to see all are safe
Could a helicopter pilot explain #3?
It seems a very dangerous maneuver.
Follow the smoke awesome saves.
Really early for once I’m 1st
I love the videos all so far have been really good thank you for entertaining me
#2 parking lot boss: don't come in to work today. helicopter on fire tomorrow LOL
Number 3 is awesome.
Super 😃
Can't wait to see the promo of the Tinkerbell F35 landing (stealthily) in a heavy sea state.
I love happy endings.
the red one was beautiful
Awesome pilots.
NICE.
7:36 "there's gotta be something wrong" nah lady he's just getting lunch
You got the video of the H-53 landing on the beach! Great. So many other uploaders only show the departure. Thanks.
The Lynx video shows one reason why there is an effort to make RAST (Recovery Assist Secure Transverse) systems work well. Now on a deck with that much pitching motion I am not sure even the BEST RAST system would have been able to be used due to the requirements for connecting to the helicopter.
The float system on the Bell Jet Ranger was a version I have not seen before.
Does this RAST system include the HHRSD "beartrap" put into service in the 1960s in the Royal Canadian Navy?
David Hoffman i
CH-53. Flew in them a bunch. Never heard them called a H-53. Could be my mistake though. Either way theyre the best troop transport America has. Some would say nah the Ch47 is but I dont trust intertwining rotor blades. Real good friend of mine died in a CH-46 crash on 1st day of Iraq-OIF. Still cant find the crash report but another Marine from the Purple Foxes squadron said it just went nose down and fast from 10-12k ft. Killed all on board. 4 Marines (2 of them pilots) and 12 or so British Troops.
John Rambo ,
OIF stressed weapons systems in a real world ecosystem, not the laboratories. Logistics failures, systems failures, and more showed how stage managed so much of our exercises and weapons testing had been for decades. Stupid simple stuff like having to support dozens of different proprietary battery packs instead using common batteries or battery packs. Our boots fell apart in a quarter of the time the laboratories said they would.
Troops with no drinkable water for days. Not enough links to create ammunition belts for M-249s, so the troops had to swap out magazines from that ridiculous angled magazine port.
And yes, helicopters that really had no business being put into such an environment. We know better now, but a good number of Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, and Airman died because we really had not done the preparation we thought we had.
Do you suppose they put it down on the beach because the chip detector alarm in the gearbox when off?
number 2 is NOT an emergency landing.. it's the danish navy Practicing landing in bad weather.. youtube: Danish Defence MH-60R Seahawk bad weather landing
Yes
And that's probably a pilot missing the old Lynx.
Why is there no R.A.S.T. probe. I believe the MH60R is R.A.S.T. capable?
James Robinson I don’t know what a R.A.S.T probe is but maybe they just didn’t need or want it for training?
That is a Romeo. The Danish opted out from outfitting it with the RAST system. They have their own recovery system. Source: me... I work on them
Thank Heaven the crews in those water landings were saved by the impeccable skills of their pilot. The sight of those aircraft abandoned on the open water is heartbreaking though, I expect there was no saving them.
John Edwards just get a tugboat, (on a serious note it would have been retrieved or sunk they can’t just let it drift it’s a hazard)
A few from the top 5 in my opinion were not emergency landings. Not when everything is ok until the tail rotor hits while landing. That is just an accident while landing not an emergency landing. You need to be coming in already in trouble with an emergency to be a emergency landing.
Holy F**king Hell, some of the most badass machines on the planet!
What was that intersection? I didnt quite catch it...Lincoln and Highman?
Franklin and Highland
@ABCD ABCD chicken and biscuits
😂😂😂😂😂
#2 was insane.
4:10 - the tracking precision :o
Great vid
That is news chopper pilot is heroic!!
the ones that didnt make the list seem better than the top 5
Really stretching for that 10 minute mark. 👌
Great video!!
