CM Leung has been voted one of the world’s top wedding photographers, but even he couldn’t have planned the crazy picture that he took at a wedding in Iceland recently. Because although the picture below looks staged, the helicopter was in fact a very surprise addition to the photo shoot!
The Icelandic Coast Guard chopper had been in the area to rescue somebody, and Leung just happened to be in the right place at the right time to capture the moment that it flew past the bride. She managed to stay on her feet just long enough for the photographer to take his amazing picture before the downdraft knocked her over. Rescue personnel were present to ensure that people on the ground were safe, and although the helicopter looks perilously close, the angle of the picture makes it look more dangerous than it actually was. Still, this doesn’t stop it from being one of the coolest wedding pictures we’ve ever seen.

What do you think ?
Amazing photo! And don't you guys read? They didn't know about it, it's not planned
Thank you! I am also a reader. Saw the photo, chose to know more by also paying attention to the words around the photos.
If you look at the movie you see it landed just at the same place as them, they knew perfectly well it was there. Maybe they didn't knew where is was going to fly but then again, they stayed exactly on the spot while the helicopter was a few meter from them.
"although the helicopter looks perilously close, the angle of the picture makes it look more dangerous than it actually was" C'mon..just read the article.
CAN'T YOU GUYS READ!? THEY DID NOT PLAN THIS!THEY DIDN'T KNOW THIS HELICOPTER WOULD BE THERE. READ THE ARTICKE BEFORE YOU POST COMMENTS. OK?
People don't bother reading anymore it's too difficult for there simple minds bored panda should have put "accidental photo" in the title so stupid people who can't read more then two words before becoming confused would understand
So...as shown in the video, a helicopter takes off and makes straight for the bride. This was either unnecessarily uncautions from the pilot, or from the photographer taking pictures of the bride. Or for both. Reading the captions or not...
This thing is hillarious...
