freak helicopter accident unaware that his best friend was underneath the burning wreckage. Student Isaac Hockley was a keen photographer who had been freelancing for his local newspaper in Canada when he got the call to get pictures of a tragic accident that had occurred right in the middle of his city.A chopper flying over Cranbrook in British Columbia had suddenly lost power and plummeted onto the streets of the quiet neighbourhood below, killing all three crew onboard.But what Hockley and everyone else nearby failed to realise was that 23-year-old Isaiah Otieno had been right below the aircraft as it hit the ground.A student at the same nearby college as Hockley, the 6ft 9in Kenyan had stood out from the minute he arrived there two years before.During that time Otieno - dubbed 'The Gentle Giant' by locals - and Hockley had become inseparable and it's believed he'd been en route to post some letters to his family back home when fate struck.The fact he never heard the helicopter in trouble above his head was thought to be the result of him wearing a hoodie and listening to music on his iPod at the time.
