Helicoptor Crash in London

2 confirmed dead, one of those was possibly on the ground and not in the helicopter. 2 others removed from the scene with minor injuries.

I work down by the river Thames, and was just yesterday thinking about the amount of helicopters that pass overhead. Someone once told me that they have to keep a course following the river when crossing the city in case of emergencies, so they can ditch in the water and not over a populated area - how true this is, I don't know.

Vauxhall is right by the river, though.

Also, screw Sky News' terror-forward coverage. Turn that sh!t off.

Two completely pointless things to say about what happened.

they read that quote out on 5live this morning. i can't understand how it's being reported. completely retarded thing to say.
she could always try and move to an area where there's only bungalows for some peace of mind.
