Actually it’s very safe when the engine quits because it’s not the engine that rotates the rotors. The air rotates them so when the engine quits the rotors still spin because you still have airflow so you just slowly autorotate down to a mostly soft landing. In those valleys you would see roads below so you can land on them very easily.
@@raymacmillan2277 Yes I know it is always on autorotate but the nature of the mounteneous terrain could make it difficult to find a safe landing spot in time.

Wao man! just checked Marc passed away in an accident two years ago!
Windy days are a friend of the gyrocopter.
Beautiful scenery. Love your channel!
Must be absolutely magical flying in the mountains! Thank you for sharing 😊👌🏻
Brilliant mountain flying video...:-)
Absolutely awesome!!
Awesome. The only problem is looking for a landing spot in case the engine cuts.

If you would look in the valleys that he is flying in you would see a road in them
Incredible arrival, though an emergency landing would be a nightmare? Parachute maybe?
