Sister of student, 22, killed by helicopter blade rejects claims he was at fault

The sister of British helicopter victim Jack Fenton has furiously rejected claims that her brother defied security regulations and caused his own death in Greece. Some reports suggested the 22-year-old student took a selfie towards the rear of the aircraft next to the spinning tail rotor of the helicopter and was killed instantly.

However, his 20-year-old sister Daisy denied the reports as “rubbish”, saying her brother was “cautious and wary”. She shifted the blame onto pilot Christos Fragkopanagos or the ground crew, who were all arrested but then later released yesterday, according to Mirror Online.

Daisy, a student at the University of Manchester, told the MailOnline: “This was Jack’s first ever helicopter ride. So you can imagine how cautious and wary, if anything, he was.”
