    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    I did not think that possible to the point of making fun of people. There must be one hell of a lot of travel in those rotor blades. Another reason to bow to our helicopter overlords...

    There's no way the blades come down that much. That looked like a gun shot.

    i didn't watch it but from what i'm reading, you never go at a helicopter from the front due to the forward tilt of the rotor.

    I know right? Like the "pink mist" snipers talk about.

    It wasn't particularly gross, like say grown people on camera wearing orange and purple hollering for cleeeeeeumpson or something. One instant tequila guy was drunk staggering to his chopper, the next it was all vapor...

    i finally watched it. it was interesting that the blades are rotating clockwise, but his head and the midst went the opposite direction. I'm no Dexter, or strong in physics, but seems like both would have moved in the same direction as the blades are turning.
