October 26, 2018
After getting engaged, a Chicago couple miraculously survived a helicopter crash. Carli McConaughy and Adam Barnett were on a dream vacation in Hawaii when he asked her to marry him. After she said yes, they celebrated with their first ever helicopter ride. They were flying over the island of Oahu when the pilot lost consciousness. He was slumped over at the controls and the helicopter was nosediving straight into the ocean when McConaughy jumped into action.
