After losing power while in the air, a sight seeing helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing on the water near 79th street. With four people on board, the pilot made a sound decision to land as promptly and safely. The difference between emergency landings with airplanes and helicopters is: with loss of power, airplanes have the ability to glide and land properly while helicopters usually go straight down immediately. Hit the jump watch the chopper get towed back to land.

As per CNN, two adults and two children from Sweden were on board however their injuries were very minor.
