ok, that's nuts for sure.
Any background story on why they came this close?

PS: does look real to me, and would be way too much work to fake the sequence photos. And why in the first place. What to gain? I am bored out of my mind (broken leg), and even I would not do that.

now that would be an awesome video. But hitting the propellers is probably worse then hitting the "a" frame of a house ! :thumb:
