People are so glued to their devices they are not aware of their surroundings 😢

Most freak accidents comes from our own stupidness.

Some people don’t have the capacity to work in a dangerous environment.

In the military we were told to duck immediately upon exiting the copter, or get decapitated, true for any rotary blade aircraft.

I was on a helicopter tour with my wife on Oahu, and the pilot specifically told us to exit out the side, duck, and walk off towards the FRONT of the helicopter towards the ramp off of the pad once we landed. Another couple who joined us on the tour did the opposite and walked out the side and towards the BACK. The pilot almost had an aneurysm because the couple came literally 3 feet away from being turned into ground beef by the tail rotor. The hair on my neck stood up, and I hope that couple realizes how close to death they came to.

Thought you was talking about a small drone at first… I’m like how would that kill a person😂

Sad. She made a mistake and the consequences were huge.

Just a very tragic accident, poor woman geez.

She got killed on the job, I’d think there would be a settlement even if it’s her fault, her job requires her to look at a tablet near a propellers, it should be a osha violation

When I was in the ARMY, back in my day work on helicopter. we were told never to stare at the rear blade. They said it could cause you to just walk right into the blade and kill you. yes, it has happened before crazy

The beauty/fashion influencer from Texas got hit by a helicopter propeller after taking a nighttime tour, it may have been during Christmas time, to see the lights, iirc. What’s always struck me (pardon the sick pun) as making it even more tragic, if possible, is how she later explained how she had disembarked the copter and had walked away clear of danger when it occurred to her that she should have thanked the pilot, such a thoughtful, well-mannered young lady, so she turned around to do just that when she accidentally walked into the still-spinning blade. I’m very happy to hear that she’s doing so well, a very strong person. 💓💗

I see people walking aimlessly while looking down at their phones. In high risk jobs, training could be the difference between life and death ☠️

Spinning props and blades are practically invisible DEI strikes again !

Hi Lamont, I have a story for you...hope you can look into it. This was on real crime spotlight...there is a long version and a short one. This is about a young couple on their first date somewhere in the U.S. Aug 4 2021. Cops stopped Luis Cevallos and passenger Alexis Rodriguez for excessive speeding. He was given a ticket and they were on their way. A few moments later this same car crashed going underneath a tractor trailer going 124 mph. Both were beheaded and came to a stop down a hill in a parking lot and into a cement barrier of some kind. I don't know where in the U.S. this was, but it would be interesting to see your take on it. This impacted a lot of people including police, and would be a story to make people think about speeding. It would be nice to know where their graves are as well.

It's just unimaginable that she would walk into a noisy propeller ???

There was that RC Helicopter guy who did himself like this. It was brutal.

Lamont is definitely a "True Crime Hottie"

Reminds me of people that have walked in front of my car while staring at their phone.

I feel for her family, but do they really think she needed training to NOT walk into a propeller?🙄

That was a final destination moment like the movie 😮😮😮

You are completely right…You go Lamont

Look up the story of Jim Kowalski. He was killed by a propeller. He owned a bunch of grocery stores. I knew Jim. I worked for him back in the 80’s

Poor lady must have lost concentration for a second that's all it took 😔 stay safe Lamont love from the UK x

My dad worked for a well known airline in Canada. And he spent most of the time in the plane's cabin changing repairing replacing windows and passenger seats. Anyhoo I remember him mentioning 2 pretty gory deaths of co workers (not from his own crew )and one was where one guy was in the cockpit the other guy checking and test firing the engine and somehow there was miscommunication between the two and the guy in the cockpit fired up the engine just as the other guy was right at the engine as it started up and got sucked right in. I believe death was instant. The other fatal accident involved a hook of a tow truck can't remember what happened but one worker getting gored to death by the hook.

Fyi a report said: An Air Force team replicated the accident sequence using an MQ-9 parked in the same spot, with the engine running, at the same power setting, with similar twilight lighting conditions, and with airfield ramp stadium lighting - all similar to the conditions present on Sept. 7. During the simulation, the spinning propeller was not visible when looking to the rear of the aircraft from the direction Rodriguez-Cosme had approached. Sounds like it wasn't totally her fault

Oh, those surveillance drones are based at Ellington AFB in Houston...it's not an active base but several squadrons use it and secret drones are one of them. People rely on their sight not thinking the props are spinning so fast you cant see them; people will walk into them. You have to make a point and think to walk way around. On your phone or talking you will forget. Suing isn't an option here. There are clauses in her employment to cover this, certainly.

It would seem like a standard operating procedure would be not to approach the drone until it is no longer running.

I applaud your respect for the victim. The video was short and to the point and you did not drone on and on

Thats what you get with DEI hires.

I didn't know they made drones that big, interesting story ❤️

I know someone who walked into an airplane propeller and lived. It cut her arm off and it was reattached successfully.

this sounds like another case where someone thinks theyre in one place when they are actually in another

Rip Steph, just awful

If you work for the government, you can’t sue. RIP Stephanie.

Wow...never heard of that story. Thanks for putting it out!

Hello Lamont I'm watching you from Tucson Arizona. Thank you for your videos, you are great and love your voice

Wow, I wasn’t expecting you to say Palmdale. I live in a neighboring city. what happened to her is scary. 😳😳😳

You hit the nail on the head! She had no situational awareness. And I would bet she either did not take her training around powered up propellers seriously or she was improperly trained. So whose fault is this? When you are going to work on a US Military flight line, the Military should train you and should have provided her an escort and should be aware of the training she had been provided. But this also falls under her company’s contract and I’m sure it is spelled out what training she is required to have and if that training was given and if she passed the training and was signed off on that training. Propellers that are closer to ground level can be hard to see if you are not aware of them and have little training around those aircraft. And from the information given, it’s unclear if she was really familiar being on the flight line and around aircraft with low propellers. There is a flight line supervisor that usually rides around in a vehicle and should be aware of all the personnel who will be going out to all the aircraft on the flight line. I’d like to know if that person was aware of her visit to the drone and if they were near to observe her. Yes I’m a former Air Force aircraft mechanic and spent 13 years on the flight line. This was 100% preventable if she had proper training and supervision. But she was not military and very obviously not properly trained no matter what training she received. That’s the fault of the Military no matter what contract they had with her company, as long as the flight line supervisor had knowledge of her being out there. And it is possible no one informed the supervisor of her visit, but that’s a stretch as they usually do know of all visits to the flight line by contractors. If she was cleared to be out there, she had some training that she was signed off on. That’s where the investigation should start. Thanks for the video. Interesting how you presented it during your walk.

“She got hit by a propeller, but not to worry, she’s still hot.” lol

Hello I’m watching from The Bahamas 🇧🇸 love your videos !

Thanks for this story.

So very sorry to hear this terrible accident.

Drone propellers are sharp

Reminds me of the scene in the first Indiana Jones movie when one of the bad guys was killed by the airplane propeller

I immediately flashed back to my childhood and that scene from Raiders of The Lost Ark…

Roman Pirozek Jr. 19,died in Brooklyn's Calvert Vaux Park after being struck in the head by his Remote Control Helicopter. Sept7 2013.

Wow! Horrible way to go, so sad,and dangerous job if you are not careful 😢.

Hi Plano, don't miss you. Way too much traffic, but a nice little city.

Hey bro, if you identify as a true crime hottie, let your hair down Lamont! 😂

My buddy worked aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt a ‘small aircraft carrier’ in the early 70s. He witnessed a crewman / deck worker back up into the prop of Navy plane maybe 20 feet away from him. ☠️

Thanks Lamont..sad story

Poor girl.

that drone like a plane.

Sad to die on the job.. Stay safe Lamont.😊

Hi Lamont I can only send comments on my phone. But love to watch the videos on TV. I'm bed bond bc of Health care comes to me for different reasons. Sending love

So sad poor lady! 😥

Sheesh. In the early 2000s a man working on an aircraft carrier was clipped by a plane. The pictures are still out there if you really wanna see

So sad. They can be so dangerous!!! This drome was huge!!! It's more like a small plane. ❤ feel for the family tragically. God bless her.xx❤❤

Never heard of this story before

Hey Lamont, props for your story..

Nightime would make me even more nervous.

You always have some cool stories 👍

I love your content. So informative and indepth

I think her family was pretty high up on the ladder, in NASCAR …

Stay safe out there, and rock on, Lamont! 💜✌

Damn! 😫

🕊️🙏🏼🕊️

Never knew they was this big

What a tragic story Lamont Peace out Lamont ❤❤

At first thought it was a small dron so sad😢

Hey Lamont, i dont know if you know or not, but i thought you mifht might want to know , i was on you tube just now , and remember that story you did on Chad Doerman the guy from Ohio who shot his 3 sons, well he was in court may 3, 2024, to see if he's going to get the death penalty, if im not mistaken there's another court hearing sometime in July, just thought you might want to know

If passengers are leaving an aircraft onto the tarmac, all engines both jet and propeller must be shut down. Someone screwed the pooch in that situation.

🙏🏾

Lamont is a "interesting story" hottie ☺️

What a tragic accident. Some people are not aware of their surroundings. Stop being on your phone, ipad and pay attention to your surroundings.

The Government contracts every thing out!

Lauren Scruggs Kennedy is the Model's Name

Yes. Please do more weird interesting stories. Curious of some of these things that happened

I can see this being on a 1’000 ways to die if the show still exists

i always thought those drones were silent

So sad. Thanks Lamont.

Human error! Period!😮

She may have had some ear protection. Maybe that drowned out the drones noise, but a lack of proper training sounds like an issue but... lawsuit lawsuit.

Lauren Scruggs, Jason Kennedy from E! wife had her hand torn off when she walked into one & had to have her eye removed.

What happened to Lamont At Large?

She was not worth saving sad story she should of paid attention where she was walking

There was an actor I forget his name and two I believe Vietnamese children filming Twilight zone the movie, years and years ago and I believe they all died and the same way. I am sure someone will be able to correct me with the prooer information in the comments. 😊😊😊😊

Please people's follow instructions start with listen correctly unsure ask again 🖐️🤨

The way this was reported, WAY too many people just assumed that the "device" in her hand was a cell phone!

The unaware programmed drones. I am not talking about the hardware.

total darwin award

The drone looks like a fighter jet, omg

She was pretty. RIP.

Sad story

I dont understand why they would do ANY work around a live propeller! I'm as clumsy as they come. I would prob trip & fall to my death. I hope they changed procedures. 🕊

Contractors are kind of like politicians with access to top secret compartmental information. They get distracted, sloppy, etc. and tragedy happens upon all.

It happened as she was in a fist fight with Indiana Jones.

Not sure she was cut out for that job if cannot put 2 and 2 together 🤔

I heard she was watching The Simpsons with their next prediction. It was an episode where a woman was on her tablet, and she walked into a drone. The end.

It's just a very sad situation.
