Another video shot by one of the passengers onboard, recorded the horror moments from inside the helicopter. Just moments after the lift-off, the helicopter began to swivel mid-air when a deafening silence could be heard as people onboard remained frozen with fear. The passengers also video called their family members to say the final goodbye.
The Bell 206 helicopter eventually crashed into the side of a restaurant building a few metres away. It then plummeted down the side of the building before being caught up on a large communications antenna and left hanging almost upside down in the sky.
