Meanwhile Texas at 111+ laughs and says you think that's hot, you haven't seen hot yet.
Things are coming together nicely...
I'm not worried about that character.
As the saying goes, the Devil lives in Hell and rents out Texas...
Yes, but the 300,000 degrees centigrade was a dry heat.
Bob didn't think this through...

There's apparently surveillance footage of it. Wonder if it's as quick and brutal as people getting sucked into the turbofan engine of a commercial airplane.
Yep. Vanderbilt hospital in Nashville had a janitor helping out when they were slammed.
He was helping the crew remove a patient from their lifeflight helicopter and backed onto the tail rotor, splitting his skull in half.
I love Darwin. I mean... I totally love Darwin. And all he stands for. Darwin rocks.Just happened:

Another poncy upper-class twit of the year hamburgered because he was too retarded to understand.. tail-rotor. Hope he didn't breed yet.

Throw a bottle of bleach into the fan, duh
Get a dog, fucking amateur!
I'm sure it's suffering from PTSD and will need intensive counseling...oh and a little tune on the transmission and maybe a rotor replacement.
but since it happened in Greece, well maybe a tranny service by Mayor Pete.

So any incident could potentially cost 2 lives... One being the person who got chopped up... The other being the person whom the helicopter was called for... 'cause that chopper was going nowhere.
I don't know how "substantial" the object has to be before the grounding rule applies... Like if a plastic grocery bag or similar makes contact... But I know for certain a human being getting "schwacked" is sufficient to cause the craft to be grounded.
Thats the policy here in the US. I can't speak to other country's policies.

20 or so years ago my dad was part of some employee response team at his job. One of their training exercises involved prepping a landing area for a life flight helicopter. They worked in conjunction with the local FD as part of the training. There were all kinds of rules concerning how you moved around the chopper... because if someone got into the tail rotor, the craft was no longer considered airworthy until it could be inspected and deemed worthy of returning to service. I'm pretty sure that comes down from the FAA.

O.K., now for suggestions on how to interface the concept within the U.S.

Moving around running helicopters is simple.
Do not approach from the front or rear.
Go directly to/from the door. Not at a 20° angle, not 45°, not even 10°. You go straight to the door and straight away from it until you are fully clear of the rotors. Also, don't look up at them because it can cause vertigo in some people.
$100 says that the snooty fuck was briefed but either didn't hear it because he was busy on tic tock, or he thought the rules didn't apply to him.
BTW, the story as written is contradictory as hell.
Did he get out and back into the rotor, or did he go back outside and then do it?
Typical shit journalism.
I couldn't waste any more time reading it so I just stopped.
