Watch: Russian chopper breaks into two, then hovers mid-air before fiery crash. Shocking video goes viral

Wait 5 sec.

A dramatic video shows a Russian Ka-226 helicopter crashing in Dagestan, killing five people, including four employees of defense manufacturer KEMZ. The pilot valiantly fought to control the damaged aircraft after its tail broke, but it ultimately spun out of control and crashed. KEMZ, which supplies systems for Russian fighter jets, is under U.S. sanctions.
