This is the horrifying moment a helicopter crash lands in front garden of home after spiralling out of control.
The remarkable footage was captured on a doorbell camera in Garrett Avenue, California at around 10am on Saturday.
The helicopter can be seen dropping out of the sky and crashing into a nearby palm tree as a car miraculously avoids the crash.
Fortunately, the pilot and the single passenger survived the terrifying crash and came away unscathed.
Dozens of concerned neighbours made their way out to the devastating crash to check on the pilot and passenger.
The pilot of the Bell 20GB chopper was a 47-year-old man and the passenger was a 33-year-old man.
The pair managed to walk free from the helicopter crash and were found talking and breathing, according to police.
They were taken to a nearby hospital for minor injuries and were later released that day.
Police said the pilot was operating a test flight with the helicopter normally used for geological surveys.
However, before the frightening crash the duo claimed there was a loud popping sound just before the chopper started to fall.
Remarkably, the helicopter crashed into a tree and managed to avoid the houses in front.
Police believe if the tree wasn't there the helicopter could have crashed into nearby houses and the fallout could have been even more horrific.
None of the neighbours and residents were injured following the impact of the crash.
Authorities are still investigating how the crash happened and cops believe the chopper hit one of the houses on its side - before crashing into the palm tree and to the ground.
The surrounding area has been closed for the day as police carry on with their investigations following the dramatic helicopter crash.
Whilst the Federal Aviation Administration is also investigating and sent an official over.
Additionally, the National Transportation Safety Board are to send an operative over to investigate the scene.
The incident comes just days after a helicopter crash in South Dakota on September 30.
The AG-915 Spartan chopper dramatically crashed near the Chan Gurney Municipal Airport in Yankton around 10.30am.
The Federal Aviation Administration confirmed they were looking into the crash along with the National Transportation Safety Board.
65-year-old Kevin Rehm, from California, was named as the pilot who was killed, according to Yankton Assistant Fire Chief Larry Nickels.
The chopper crashed into a field and was on fire as it made its way down to the ground.
Due to the devastating impact the pilot was sadly killed.
He was pronounced dead at the scene and an autopsy is currently underway to determine the impact of his injuries.
The results are due in the next few weeks, according to officials.
