Nice! Are those the ejection seats flying off the helicopter?

Yeah, you can see a parachute in the impact plume, they must've bailed out immediately.

Edit: actually no, that plume is from the ejection, you can see a smoke trail form earlier, then the pilot ejects, then the craft drops like a stone without its rotors.
