Pilot cheated death on live TV when his helicopter crashed as he was putting up a seven-storey Christmas tree. Television viewers in New Zealand watched in horror as the blades of Greg Gribble's helicopter became tangled in cables attached to scaffolding on Auckland's waterfront. Dramatic footage shows the rear of the helicopter snapping, flinging Mr Gribble out of the front door of the helicopter, then slamming him back through its side door. The pilot escaped without serious injuries and nobody on the ground was reported hurt.

what's the reason for flying a helicopter so close to cables? Stupidity at it's best......
Good he was wearing a seat belt that saved his life
