Watch Man Dies after Falling from Plane at Selfridge Air Show – Full Video
A wing walker, whose stunt went wrong during an air show at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base, has died. His death was confirmed by a spokesperson for Mt. Clemens Regional Medical Center.
Todd Green fell 200 feet from a moving plane as he tried to climb onto a passing helicopter. Officials said he was flying on a Steerman aircraft operated by John Mohr. When he fell, many people thought it was part of the act.
“All of a sudden something just trickled out of the helicopter,” said Amanda Cull. “We thought he had a parachute because early guys were falling out in parachutes.”
Channel 7 viewer, Matt Torres shot video of green making two runs at the helicopter before the third try.
“They all gasped, and they said, I hope he’s all right because when he fell, his body bounced a few times on the ground,” said Matt Torres. “He had his hand almost there to grab the strap and then it looked like he didn’t get it.”
Minutes before the accident, correspondence on the announcer’s radio can be heard that there was some worry about wind issues.
It was about 1:30 p.m. Sunday, on the final attempt, that the wing walker fell. No parachute and no safety net.
“I jumped the fence. We ran out and ran to his aide,” said Darren VanBuren.
The Memphis firefighter and EMT raced to start emergency care on Green. He had been in the stands watching the show with his family. He was followed out by a surgeon from Ohio and two other doctors from the crowd.
“Everybody worked in perfect conjunction together,” said VanBuren.
Despite their efforts, Green died from his injuries at the hospital. The wing walker had just performed the same stunt Saturday at the air show.
A video from his website shows how the stunt should look, and shows Green successfully grab the skid of the helicopter while standing on the wing of the bi-plane. It’s a move the experienced stuntman performed numerous times before.
Arnold Sese was near the front of the crowd watching the stunt. He tells Action News that Green was making his third attempt at transferring from the wing of the bi-plane to the helicopter.
“He was reaching for the spar underneath the helicopter and just fell.” Sese tells us. “It looked like a dummy falling to the ground. But when the emergency crews started rushing to the runway everyone knew it wasn’t part of the stunt.”

Shania Twain Plans to Auction Shoes After CMT Awards Fall 2011 Video
Wednesday night, June 8. In a video she posted on her WhoSay account shortly after the incident, the country pop singer assures her fans that she didn’t hurt herself, but is thinking about auctioning off the shoes she wore to the awards show.
Calling the fall on live television “one of life’s most embarrassing moments”, the 45-year-old singer goes on to say that she doesn’t want to see the shoes ever again. Still, she clearly hasn’t made up her mind on what to do with the shoes since she is quick to add that she may keep them as souvenirs instead.
Shania took a hard tumble on the floor when she was making her way to the stage inside the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee to present Male Video of the Year. Although she looked to be in pain after the spill, the “From This Moment On” hitmaker recovered quickly and laughed at the mishap.
The five-time Grammy Award winner kicked off the awards show with a parody of “Thelma and Louise”. Channeling her outlaw side, she pre-recorded the clip with country beauty Taylor Swift. In her response video for the fall, the singer mentioned a little bit about the sketch when she joked that she doesn’t need a stunt double.
Meredith Vieira Says Goodbye After Five Years of Today- Full Video
The popular “Today” co-anchor ended her five-year run on Wednesday, telling viewers her decision to go is “right, but it’s hard.”
That decision was clearly hers alone. Seated beside co-host Matt Lauer, she has helped keep “Today” the audience front-runner among network morning shows. The 57-year-old Vieira has explained she wants to spend more time with her family.
Lauer called Vieira’s final day “a very bittersweet Wednesday morning.”
The broadcast made room for news about the nation’s severe-heat advisories and scandal-ridden Congressman Anthony Weiner’s Twitter woes. But throughout the show, tributes and highlight reels honored Vieira’s “Today” tenure.
Vieira wiped her eyes as she was serenaded by Carole King with a Vieira favorite, “You’ve Got a Friend.” Then, spontaneously, she led the “Today” gang across the studio to gather around King at the piano.
“It’s a hard one,” she said at the top of the show, which, despite being quite Vieira-heavy also managed to sprinkle in some actual news over the course of the first three hours. “Very mixed emotions. I know it’s right, but it’s hard.”
Joined by her husband Richard Cohen and the family dog Jasper, the whole Today show crew rallied together to say goodbye to Vieira, paying tribute to her throughout the morning with retrospective clips and a fair share of surprises.
First up, a surprise performance by Carole King, who sang one of Vieira’s favorite songs, “You’ve Got a Friend.”
“I don’t know what to say,” an already emotional Vieira said.
Thankfully, Lauer, Al Roker, Ann Curry, Kathie Lee Gifford, Hoda Kotb, Natalie Morales and the rest of the faces of Today did.
“It’s been a privilege working with you over these past five years. I know the folks at home have enjoyed starting their day with you as well,” Lauer said, ramping up to the biggest surprise of the morning—a technically and creatively impressive, continuously shot group lip-sync, in which every single member of on- and off-air talent wore I [Heart] Meredith T-shirts and serenaded her with Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’.”
Sitting out on the Plaza with Matt, Ann and Al, the trio one by one paid personal tribute to her.
“I kept coming up with jokes and sarcasm,” Lauer told her, explaining his process of trying to think of what to say. “I realized it’s because I’m afraid that if I really tell you how I feel, I’m going to turn into a blubbering idiot. But it’s your last day, so a little blubbering.
“I adore you, and I have since the night we had dinner five and a half years ago. Your talent and your warmth and your generosity…your sense of humor I will remember most, you made me laugh every single day here, and I thank you for that. But the bottom line is this: I have marveled over the fact that someone who has talent as prodigious as yours, how small your ego is. You’ve taught us all how to be great teammates, and that’s the gift that I’ll take away from you. Thank you so much.
“I don’t want to go now,” Meredith laughed (and cried). “[But] I went upstairs and they changed the lock on my dressing room.
“Life is about changing. I love you all, you are the best bar none, it’s such a family and it’s really hard to leave a family, so I’m not going to say goodbye, at all…All of you I’m putting in my heart so I’ll never ever lose you. I love you so much.”

Selena is in Toronto to visit Justin’s family and friends in his hometown of Stratford, Ontario.
