22-Year-Old Tourist Decapitated By Helicopter Rotor While 'Trying To Take Selfie'

it was the rear blades from my understanding…I’m betting the selfie story will hold up after their investigation

Just still he should have been nowhere near the chopper doing dumb shyt

 

[levitate]

Yeah those rotors should have been fully powered down as a basic safety precaution.

 

[old pig]

So he willingly walked into spinning blades … but it’s everybody else’s fault

idk…maybe he stumbled, tripped, or just wasn’t mindful of how close he was to it…bizarre shyt

Meanwhile, local media outlets in Greece reported that the accident occurred when Fenton attempted to take a selfie without realizing that the blades were still spinning. However, Stanton-Gleaves rejected the claim and said his friend was not using his phone during the incident.

Media spin to turn a tragedy into a juicy title.

It's the pilot's fault

His parents were in a helicopter right behind him

 

[OnFleekTing]

I'm confused
He got killed by the rear blades?
Did he just walk to the rear and not pay attention
RIP
