CNN (23 Nov 2020) — A dark money mystery in Florida centers on the campaign of a spoiler candidate who appeared to help a Republican win by 32 votes

Helicopter crash survival

It’s completely possible to survive a helo crash. My pops - a 20-year Marine Corps pilot - survived two with only a couple of scrapes.

Helo crashes look really violent, and they’re definitely no carnival ride, but if the crew is properly strapped in and ready, they can certainly be survived in many, perhaps most, cases. With all of the debris flying around, they’re usually more dangerous to people outside than the crew.
