You got to sympathize with the guy who was driving about 15 feet from this thing and who quite reasonably decided to get the ever-loving-heck out of there:

Thankfully, everyone was okay:

Witnesses saw a helicopter spinning in the air before it crashed Saturday morning in the front yard of a home in southeast Fresno, sending two people to the hospital.

The helicopter appeared to clip the edge of a house, then sheared off the top of a palm tree shortly before 10 a.m., Fresno Police Lt. Charlie Chamalbide said. ...

The 47-year-old pilot and a 33-year-old passenger, both men, had minor injuries, and were taken to Community Regional Medical Center.
