Dramatic footage captured the moment a US soldier was left hanging onto a Chinook helicopter by his fingertips after hitting turbulence while hanging his legs off the back of the aircraft. In a widely circulated video, flight engineer Shane Sutton, 26, is seen casually sitting on the edge of the ramp before the helicopter, which was travelling over the desert floor, dramatically hit a 'wind pocket coming off the mountains'. Sutton told DailyMail.com the accident occurred in the training area in Fort Bliss, , which led military higher ups to order the servicemen to 'change policies' about sitting on the powerful helicopter's ramps.
