Not many pilots can do this to the blades.
Bent Blades (1).
I was giving rides to the pilot boat operators on 11 Dec 00. They each went up and down the hoist to see what the Bar Pilots do. These guys take the Bar Pilots to and from the ships on the Pilot Boats Columbia and Chinook.

The blades wont really bend like this (unless something has gone terribly wrong). These pictures were taken by a digital camera and are distorted for some reason. You can see that the taxiway under the aircraft looks like an uneven surface. This is also an illusion. It sure looks cool though.
