The video shows a guy pulling the cable tight which causes it to hit the rotor blades, so not sure why they think it's a mystery as to what caused it?!

Chris, Pilot is doing a great job in confined space, try looking at the rigger on the ground that has a hold of the wire rope that's attached to the heli, he try's helping to unhook the rope by giving it a little throw up in the air whilst still holding it , doing this sends a wave up the rope , which then catches in the main rotor .

wow..glad to hear the pilots alright...the tree should stay be up at western park in ponsonby where it belongs. much better spot for it. on the ridge where it can be seen from the city.does anyone agree?in light of the accident perhaps they relocate.
