Accident with Bell Helicopter dropping loudspeakers. Very close call and dangerous situation.

1992. Community Loudspeaker horns are airlifted onto stadium roof using a Bell Long Ranger 206 Helicopter in an attempt to mount them. The stack is dropped onto the support frame. The whole stack plummets to the ground 15m below. First bouncing on seating area and then launching forward onto the field perimeter. The frame and some of the horns were damaged. Fortunately no person was injured. Especially when Rocco van Wyk tried to hang on to the guiding ropes on the right hand side. Notice dust and smoke as he tries to hang on. The 400kg stack bounces and goes over the edge. Very fortunate escape. There were workers installing seating below but they were clever enough to run upstairs instead of down when the stack came down. Please subscribe
