Personally, I was disturbed watching this video, I did a lot of scud running in my day, but I always slowed the Aircraft to a manageable speed ( I hoped ) to avoid this kind of outcome in minimal visibility.

From the video, the Pilot was obviously traveling at a high rate of airspeed which explains the Main Rotor seperation.

My heart goes out to his family and friends, and I hope you all learn from this tradedy.
