       A short flight to a luxurious dinner experience became a nightmare for four tourists and two crew members on board a helicopter in Colombia, where it spiraled out of control shortly after taking off from a rooftop.

       The helicopter, a Bell 206 chopper, had six people on board at the time of the crash in ？Medellín, Colombia, on Monday.

       The tourist helicopter was only airborne for approximately 10 seconds, before it dropped and became wedged between a building and a red telephone pole.

       Medellín's Mayor, Fico Gutiérrez, confirmed on X that everyone survived the crash.
