Wing-walker Todd Green makes the second of three attempts to transfer to a helicopter before falling at the Selfridge Air Show |
Todd Green was certainly one of a few stuntmen in the world brave enough to walk on the wing of a plane; but ill-fated moment was chasing him on Sunday at Selfridge Air National Guard Base as about 75,000 people looked on.
According to witnesses; Green seemed well-balanced on a wing of a plane until he fell trying to clutch a helicopter's skid on his third attempt.
Just moments after an commentator took note of the wind, Green tumbled from a wing when he was unable to cling onto the helicopter as part of a trick he had been doing for years.
