Donor heart dropped on floor after helicopter delivering it crashes

THIS is the moment a medic DROPS an organ donor's heart after rescuing it from a hectic helicopter crash. Dramatic video shows the chopper spinning out of control before the crash - and then a doctor tripping over with the salavaged organ on the debris-strewn helipad. Fortunately, the heart was not damaged and the transplant operation went ahead soon after. And the three people onboard the Agusta Westland AW109 medical helicopter escaped without serious injuries. Footage shows the chopper approaching the roof, ready to deliver its precious cargo to a patient at Keck Hospital in Los Angeles around 3.15pm. It then suddenly begins to spin out of control, its blades whirring loudly as a woman screams: "Oh my God!" KTLA 5 reports the chopper's blades sent debris flying down below, with pedestrians running for cover as parts of the hospital's roof and helipad hurtled to the ground. Aerial footage from above then shows the helicopter on its side as first responders and hospital staff pull passengers from the wreckage. Hero firefighters with the Los Angeles Fire Department managed to retrieve the donated heart from the helicopter using the jaws io life, and handed it over to hospital staff. But the medic tasked with rushing the precious cargo inside took a tumble in his haste to save the day. In stomach-sinking scenes, the organ flops onto the floor as the blue-scrubbed medic trips on a piece of metal debris. szyxflb.com
