School Dropout Trying To Build Low Cost Chopper Dies After Being Hit By Rotor Blade During Trial 

People literally die for their dreams. Respect.

while everyone was involved in rat race, you chose to dream...and nearly achieved it...you died a hero...RIP...though you could not achieve what you wanted but your life has certainly been an inspiration...

Man built a helicopter but forgot 2 most important things, a door and a helmet... Rip engineer, you will be remembered...

This why people shouldn't take for granted the amazing inventions we have today. It took many mistakes (and lives) to get to the technology that we have today.

Only if he had a helmet and thought of proper safety first, he might be carrying on with his dream. RIP

Even if he ignored TONS of safety measures, I really respect him.

He lived and acted by his principles. The best of us sometimes die young. 😢

Pretty insane that seeing a guy literally die is allowed on RU-vid, but if people say "Poop" they get demonitized

Despite whatever you innovate or build, safety is utmost for any engineering.

Poor guy, he was almost decapitated. 3 features that might have saved his life: - helmet - door - safety belt

that's why safety is number 1

Watching the video, i could see that there's to much wobble on the main blade. Which tell me, the rotor is not properly balance. So even if he could get this thing off the ground, then entire flying machine will end up rolling over the side. The next is, does this Heli has CCPM or Cyclic Collective Pitch Mixing? CCPM Assembly and operation is not easy to do. Even for experience Heli Builders. Now the rotor thrust is made through adjusting of the rotor blade pitch. And in the case of Main rotor blade it has to be synchronized correctly with how fast the rotor is rotating. I build RC Aeromodel Scale aircraft, and the hardest that i find to build is the Heli. The reason for this, is there too many point of failure compared to fix wing aircraft. I have mate who is an experience full size aircraft pilot. And he'll tell you that it requires long flying accreditation if he has to fly and heli. Let alone build one. So yes this fellow purpose is good. But before you embark on a long journey you need to start with small step. And in his case, investing time,effort and some money on building an professional RC Heli is a good start.

Should have worn a helmet, RIP to this guy, they fact that he could built that beast was incredible

Doesn’t matter that he was a drop out. He got further than most. Even dying young ❤️❤️❤️

the only thing he proved was that building anything without basic knowledge can be fatal

If you haven't gone to school for engineering, don't try to build something that risky. That was just insane. Condolences to the family.

That man painted Indian Flag on helicopter and sacrifice himself for his dream which is also every Indian dream for self reliant India..hats off ....RIP 🙏🏽

He earned my respect. But never ignore safety measures.

So sad for this tragedy but he has inspire the youth of the country to do some thing for the common people, we must salute him for this feat.

This is probably the first time I see someone died on RU-vid and CRUX kept showing the impact of his death.

He did what most of us couldn't even think of doing. His goals weren't just a dream, but instead a milestone for the next innovation.

Just an helmet would've not only saved him but someone who would make India even prouder, rest in peace madlad 💔

You see kids, dont be a dropout. Finish your education and follow your dreams.

RIP, thank you for all you did in your short time in this world. God loves you.

He wasn’t a thug or a tough guy just trying to create something. Rest Easy bro 🙏🏽💯

He didn't failed. He succeeded in making others more aware of the dangers of these things and be more cautious. He saved other people's future.

Saying "a helicopter blade fell on his head" is like saying "the Titan crew died when a large sheet of metal crushed them." SO MUCH MORE happened in those few moments that "helicopter blade hitting him in the head" doesn't cover nearly half of it. The only thing that would've prevented this death is not being in that seat. Not a door/seatbelt/helmet. Did people not watch the video? It's not even the rotor that hit him. It's EVERYTHING. It hit the helicopter frame (and him), and the sudden jolt threw his body all sorts of ways that likely just destroyed everything keeping him alive

RIP, young man. Thank you for being an inspiration to your people and to the world. USA

This man literally died chasing his dream while lot of us are just trying to go with the flow because we are too afraid of the bad outcome. I respect him

I'm personally dedicating this independent day to this guy..

why put upbeat music to a tragic story?

RIP my dude. May you fly high with the angels above.

Guy: takes a rotor to the head and dies The sound guy at CRUX: let's just add in a trap beat right here

He did more in his few short years than I have in my 61 years. Respect and RIP young man.

RIP my friend and heartfelt condolencs to the family. It would be wonderful if someone with the relevant knowledge can carry on the work and make his dream come true.

investing 1800 hours into building a helicopter is a manly degree of commitment that deserves respect

Everyone has to die one day but only few makes their life meaningful.

So sad 😔 the boy's dreaming was big but unfortunately his safety wasn't there... RIP SHEIKH..

It wasn’t the propeller that hit him, if you watch the video the propeller hit the frame what actually happened was the helicopter jumped left and he flew right “right into the right corner frame that you can see is pushed out after his head bent the metal // totally tragic honestly both a seat belt and a helmet and he’d be here to tell the story himself // anytime your building anything and especially if your using yourself as a test dummy have all safety precautions

Death's always one stop away from knocking on your door, if it was written in his fate to die that day, no safety equipment would've had saved his life. May his soul rest in eternal peace, he's a true prodigy and pride of India.

R.I.P...We lost a bright mind and a dreamer. A man with vision. We all should take the path he took and we should innovate for India and Science.

I’m no engineer but I know how seriously the aviation industry takes design, manufacturing, and inspections. If rotating mass is uneven, at those kinds of speeds, a little prop can weigh thousands of pounds and any flaw in metallurgy can become catastrophic.

RIP..😢 Respect for him...

A drop out who made his own sheet metal business, have to respect that

No school, No college, nothing fancy just a patriotic dream and years of hardwork ....hats off. Inspired alot , Maybe GOD wants you. R.I.P brother. 🙏

This is why you ALWAYS see engineering trials run via a controller.

People are acting like this guy is some genius inventor. He couldn't even manage to successfully copy an existing machine.

He died chasing a dream. I can respect that. RIP young man. So sad.

He died doing something he loved. He didn't fail, he's flying around right now.

We've lost such a brilliant boy, if he would have been successful in his trial, he could have achieved a milestone. May his soul rest in peace 🙏

New subscriber always watching your videos❤

My utmost repect for him. He has an immense passion for science and his country. I only wish he took safety precautions. We lost someone who could have been an incredible contributer to technological innovation .

Local governments has to help bright young people like this. Sad story. Rest in peace king

Huge respect for the person in pursuit of his dreams.

Bless him , jeez. condolences

Dude had a dream and died trying to make it come true, respect.

Let this be a lesson for all of us to wear safety equipments when doing a TEST/TRIAL RUN.

Respect to him. He got up and acted while we "qualified engineers" just dreamt while toiling through countless excel rows. He was a legend! Rest in Peace brother ♥️

Respect!

Respect to Mr. Ismail. Died doing what he loved, which is more than most of us will get to say in the end. Rest easy, buddy, hopefully someone can come along and revive your dream

A huge respect for this man risking his own life to build his dream, it's really sad that he works so hard for 3 years on his own.

He deserves a Big Salute.... Tried to fulfill his dream.

Rest in peace. You were a great Engineer. My respect

His ambitions were far greater than his abilities. Rest in peace young fella, you were simply born on the wrong part of the world.

His chopper may not fly, but his souls and his dream does fly higher and higher to the place where he belong, rest in peace, you've did your best.

Safety is important folks! If he’d wore a helmet and seat belts, he probably would’ve survived.

Rest in Peace brother😢

Bro tried to hold him up as if he is gonna wake up lmaoo

He didn’t die for nothing. Even though he’s gone, his story left something inside everyone else living.

His equipment looked really sophisticated. May god give his soul peace.

I’m not squeamish, but when did RU-vid become a place where people upload what’s literally an unedited video of someone’s death?

Respect to this young guy.

He wanted to launch it on independence day!! such a patriot... you're an inspiration brother. R.I.P

Despite his educational qualification he went far beyond. He dreamed, he tried, he almost achieved it. Maybe he did not have enough resource to make his creation safer but I salute him. These are the people who teach other to dream big.

Great ..... RIP Bro

My Heart with you brother...RIP..

Now imagine if he had been able to get the education a mind like his deserved. India is a land of many brilliant minds who have been unable to realise their true potential because of our exam oriented educational system. We study to pass exams, not to gain knowledge.

I'm very sorry for him, he was a real dreamer who wanted to do something big... Rest in peace

If you slow it down, you will realize that safety matters.

That’s terrible. My condolences.

That's why you need Engineering, standards, and safety equipment. Condolences to his family.

If history tells one thing that making a flying Vehicle has killed a lot of Courageous brilliant men. I genuinely hope someone pick this up and complete this kids dream.

Poor guy, 99% people commenting have no idea how difficult it is to do this, let alone how it all works. He nearly achieved his dream if it wasnt for this accident

If Helicopter is so easy Why Indian have to import them from foreign countries 😂😂

Imagine spending 3 years building the thing that would lead to your demise. Damn.

As being an engineer.. I got only one thing in my head and that's safety... Doing anything working on any project you have to look and cover all safety majors... Otherwise these unfortunate incidents will take place...RIP

This breaks my heart. Rip

Such a bright mind, ended like this. RIP hero

People like him never die but passed into legends with a legacy that inspires coming generations. Salute to him 🇮🇳

Most of the comments saying about safety precautions...but at least he died doing what he loved...it's his faith/destiny...most of us died at 25 and are cremated at 75.

People may not realize this but u r a inspiration to many.

Feel sad😢.. rip bro.. very intelligent guy

That's the Talent that is hidden in the galis and villages of India. Salute to this guy. This guy has died but he has paved a path for many underprivileged Indians.

The problem was with the Tail rotor, but still the boy did it well. Rest in peace brother.

Respect to such person who worked for their dream

"He worked on this helicopter for 1600 hours in the last 3 years, and made it a success..." Well, I wouldn't call that a success at all...

He died trying to achieve his dream, this is really appreciatable.

Aviation is not a joke, there's a reason why so many safety protocol are made

He died when he was chasing for his dream. Rest in Peace bro, you did really well

The problem here was the selection of material for building the rotors. The mains were fine but the rear rotors ballooned and expanded and then exploded (slow down the video to see it). This then messed up the main rotor and it hit him in the head. Condolences to this young innovator's family
