Hovering one of those things in place that steadily is not NEARLY as easy as this guy was making it look. I saw one guy up him, though. He was picking up up a sick person from a small ship deck with a helicopter in a storm with 20-ft swells. He said afterward that between the wind and the swells, he found it took a lot of concentration to stay at the same height and the same position relative to that deck while they loaded the sick guy in the basket. No kidding! GL, I’m so impressed by the guy flying the helicopter because I got a chance once to fly one (fairly long story not worth the telling).

Have you ever watched some TV special, say on mountain climbing...and think...I wish I could do that, or I could do that, if I'd just get into good shape again. Watching this video...I had absolutely NO thought of wishing I could do that. Although riding on the helicopter strut would be a hoot. No kidding!
