A cloud chamber is something else than a bubble chamber. The latter requires an airtight chamber with a piston to lower the pressure and blow up any bubbles formed by collisions, the former just a low temperature and IPA or something similar.

seconds 40-52 cover them removing it; its why he struggles for a minute and thuds the end to the ground - you can see the cylinder behind the red thing when he lifts the drill up again

I'm a professional helicopter pilot with a lot of time in the airframe in the video. The lever in question is indeed the rotor brake. Rotor brakes are great for quickly stopping the rotor system after the engine(s) are shut down, but they won't stop the rotors while the engine is running. In fact, you can start the helicopter with the brake engaged and it won't prevent the rotors from spooling up. However, pulling the brake with the engine running (or forgetting to disengage it before you start) will quickly overheat and destroy the braking system. The greatest risk in the situation depicted is the tourist causing damage to the braking system, but their lives were -probably- never in real danger.

ETA "probably" based on morales comment below.

ETA2: The pilots response was still appropriate.

Not going to kill them, but let’s not gently caress around and find out.

Who cares if they weren't in immediate mortal danger? If someone that's not the pilot touches the controls it's a hijacking, the pilot's morally justified to do a hell of a lot more than yell at someone if they won't stop

Helicopters are cramped and expensive to fly. Empty seats mean empty pockets!

Edit: also, it's a helicopter, so I assume every button, knob, dial, switch, lever, and surface could be labeled "touch this to kill everyone."

When he reached to engage the emergency fuel shutoff lever in preparation for a hard landing, he realized it had already been activated, and that part of a passenger's fall protection tether was underneath the fuel shutoff lever. When he disengaged the fuel shutoff lever, he was able to restart the engine, but at that point, the helicopter had already descended past 300 ft (91 m) agl and the engine "wasn't spooling up fast enough" to avoid a crash landing

They should probably move the explode the rotors off button from the passenger side armrest but it was the only place it could go

Keep reading. It was a successful ditch and everyone was fine after splashdown, the passengers died because a) the helicopter's floats didn't inflate properly and it immediately capsized b) they were unable to get out of their safety harnesses in time

It landed fine in the water. And then it flipped over and drowned almost everyone.

Because God hates helicopters and by extension anyone in helicopters.

like the floats actually all inflated on one side and not the other, making it flip over and sink even faster than if they didn't have any floats at all
