Rip tho
Yall voted for this . Praying the victims voted red
I think it’s possible in some helicopters to pitch down so fast that you put the tail into the rotors. I’m wondering if that’s what happened here, but I’m only a fixed-wing pilot.
The tail looks like it was missing stop the frame Newtons law of gravity
How about the next bunch of tourist waiting for their turn next ? Any body think about them go interview the mechanic
1/2 the aircraft is missing dude
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜💜💜

Chills…. The moment 6 lives stopped….
Why is it in pieces falling from the sky?
What is he talking about?! The blades and tail are gone. Only the cabin was left.
maybe the copter lost power.. first thing i would check is if there was any fuel in it ?
It looks like someone shot it down.
Hate helicopters,they r insecure
The tail and it's blades were missing when it went into the Hudson
ok, so I'm wonderring now is something happening up there, that are causing all these crashes🤷🏾♀️
lose of blade lock maybe and it struck the tail cone, the tail is gone. Nowhere to go but down hard. Main blades may have struck the tail cone.
Looks like the tail was missing
Looks like a BELL helicopter
It's a "tail boom strike". you can google it and will show the conditions. https://youtu.be/rY16IZgky_c?si=gTJRKFysctkZCe9L the real thing, and a simulation https://youtu.be/R3a4ytlKsoA?si=IC7CPfDX51HT_Rea
All blades where gone it was upside down. Just terrible, a huge mechanical failure.
No blades on impact. They are gone off the craft. Condolences to the families who have lost.
It also looks like at least one main rotor blade folded back taking out the others.
Crazy
What a terrible accident! 🙀🙀😿
The blades flew off there were none
So sad! It was a family of 5 from Spain and the pilot. 3 adults and 3 kids
He's no helicopter expert, got that right. He says the blades are not turning. Well there are no blades. They came off, and the helicopter is upside down as it plunges. What he thinks is the blades not turning is actually the landing skids, which are at the top because the helicopter is upside down. Rotors and tail are no longer on the craft, and can be seen as debris also falling nearby.
“Blades not spinning” bro…. There’s no blades. That’s a catastrophic failure. NOTHING you can do.
Somehow trump will blame this on biden.

Sad…one moment you’re here, the next, you’re gone. Lord, have mercu on us all. Amen 😢
I live in the area. May they rest in peace
Oh my…My condolences to the families of the victims. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Too many air accidents. Something's going on…
Well… the guy sounds like he has nothing to say, and kept repeating himself
The blades have separated, including the rotor blades.
No tail boom = no tail rotor= no directional control! No Main Rotor head = No Main blades ! ! OMG Horrific
The tail rotor was gone!😰 That must have been what those three pieces that splashed down first were.
Kobe !
Christ, NEVER will you ever catch me on a helicopter unless its by force
Welcome to Trump's America.
So that's 3 this year?
Blades are moving? Blades are detached and fell later into the river. No tail rotor either.
"They lost all aerodynamic forward momentum." I can't stand it when people are always trying to sound heavy.😂
This is so tragic!
