That's cool as heck....but I notice that the fire is still burning under the bird....and the trees don't seem affected by the prop blast. But I'm not an expert. Cool pic for sure, though.

1*,
If you simply understood how fire could exist in it natural state without existing in the real world of bush's politics then you might just see, how Bush contrived to cause the trees to appear to not move but infact he was leaning on George Tenent to make the trees appear to be standing still so that he could avenge the fire’s attempt to burn his daddy hand all those years ago. So just because there has been fire in the past and there is fire now does not mean that there is or was smoke. Beside why are you questioning the chopper, when you should be questioning the why is it that the white guy is flying the chopper and the minorities are on the ground doing the grunt work and dying for a country that does not love them?
