^Usually the people at the front of the machine are at the most risk of dying in a crash (pilot), rotor blades usually cut right through the front.
Terrible thing to hear about though. Hopefully everyone gets through it alright.

seems weird that the pilot would die and all the clients had no injuries. Must be the way it crashed.

the pilot, andy seyl, was my friend and neighbour. from what we know he managed to manouver the heli when he encountered a problem so that the lives of his 7 passengers were saved but he unfortunately lost his in the process. he was an incredible pilot and i was fortunate enough to witness him flying the towers for the revelstoke gondola first hand. thanks to everyone for posting their regards on this thread, i shall pass them on to his wife and two kids.
