A helicopter plunges into the sea just feet away from swimmers in heart-stopping footage released by police.
The chopper descends rapidly from the sky in the middle of the afternoon and plunges into the crystal-clear blue waters which are packed with hundreds of swimmers and families playing in the blistering sunshine.
The Miami Beach PD police team shared the video of the drama which took place on Miami's famous South Beach in Florida, US, on Saturday afternoon.
