That guy with the landing pad on his head looked like he was ready to shit himself

This guy was hit by the exact same type/size heli as the one Alan Szabo was flying in the above video (Trex 500). Imagine getting hit in the face with it.

Damn no wonder he looked like that. There would be no way they could pay me to let them land on my head if that had happened to me.......

That looks pretty painful to me. I think Wobblys next investment should be an armored suit until he learns not to fly so close to his elbow lol
