Video shows a heck of ride for the woman. Hopefully, they won't charge her for the rescue....
Exactly!! Those helicopter rescues cost so much!! They better not charge her for anything!
That woman was probably terrified. I'm surprised her heart was able to take that.
So hope she's all right. Several helicopter rescues were shown during hurricane Harvey. Men, women, children. "We were stuck and the water kept rising and then the helicopter rescued us and that was horrible." A woman describing what she and her toddler went through in that storm. Another rescue involved a boy who looked to be about age 10. As the basket pulled him up from the ground to the helicopter his eyes showed terror and his mouth was wide open the whole time as if he were screaming non stop. But still, compared to the shameful no rescues by FEMA during Katrina, hats way off to the Navy and National Guard for being on it for Harvey. Just hope they find a less traumatizing way to get people out.
That actually looked like fun. Maybe a new Six Flags ride? Imagine if they departed while it was spinning like that? What a ride! Yee Haw! Go Granny Go!
