    The force it would take to open the door the way he did must have been immense. Not only that, but the pilots and crew chief keeping everything stable with the wash from the falls... This should be in a Coast Guard recruiting commercial. Absolute bad ass.

      I read somewhere that he used the current to help push the door, that is why he went for the passenger side. Amazing

    We visited Niagara falls in 1989 when I was 13. I found the whole area to be very unsettling. This video sums it up perfectly

      I've lived here all of my life. The Falls are invigorating, refreshing, peaceful, and spiritual. One has to respect nature, be cautious, and careful while enjoying the beauty. Someone who drives into the rapids is doing so out of despair.

      To rpm773: People who visit Niagara Falls are, indeed, shocked by the close proximity of danger. People who live here are not overwhelmed by it. When I visited the Grand Canyon in 1976, I was afraid of falling into it. I'm not tempting fate by hanging over guard rails or climb over fences to walk on slipery slopes like some people do.

      So is the guy that got the call & flew from Michigan just to be dropped into that scary as hell water with a rope and an axe, crawl into the submerged vehicle & strap a dead body to himself so her family could bury her. Pretty sure they have to factor in the weight of that guys stones when loading that chopper.
