Here's a pretty wicked video of a bunch of different airplane and helicopter crashes.

Wicked indeed.

Wow. Thats pretty crazy.

oh my god.

The one helicopter on the platform by the water i thought was going to make it until his wheel got caught on the fence.

the one with the tomcat was pretty intense too, i suddenly think top gun.

Yeah.. hopefully no one got hurt in that..

but man I laughed when I saw that! It's one of those 'close but no cigar' moments!

That one where the two helicopters connect propellers and crash scares the crap outta me. Probably because how low they were flying.

That last one was pretty ugly as well.

I beg to differ. Those choppers are remarkably safe, plus they landed in water, PLUS there were 2 rescue boats out there before it even happened.

.....there was 1 crahs where people landed in water. Not to mention some of those helicopters had soldiers hanging out the sides and they landed on that side.

The crash in water is the one I'm talking about. I'm sure in some of those crashes people died. But the one where the heli missed the pad on the boat is the one that I laughed at. I'm sure they survived, albeit with minor injuries.

yes i was watching and almost let out a sigh that they didn't crash, then it fell over and i started cracking up.

The rescue heli though where it bounced off the water and the guy jumped out and the chopper squashed him....ouch. And the airshow with 500 different angles, damn.

The one with the crossing jets in formation and the single jet going through the center is a very famous crash, and the pilots actually lived.

Lived? How? I diddn't see anyone eject and that ball of fire diddn't look very cozy.

I didn't believe it either, but he gets pulled out of the wreckage by the EMTs and he only broke a few bones and had some minor burns. They must build those planes really well. =/
