From up here, people look like ants
The fact that you are flying low is actually one of the coolest things about flying in a helicopter. With an airplane, you usually pull up so high that you can’t make out many details anymore (maybe that’s just my bad eyesight though), but when you’re in a helicopter it all looks like a toy town, where you could almost reach out and grab the toy cars and trains etc.
Remembers me to the following (very old) joke: Someone who sits for the first time in a plane says to his neighbour: “Look down, the people are so small from up here, they looks like ants!” The other person responds: “No wonder. Those are ants, we are still standing on the ground!”
