    That looks terrifying.
    Getting a copter hooked to an immovable object.

    It would have to be fitted with a release mechanism on the Helicopter otherwise that would be suicidal.

    Exceptionally skilled pilot to master such control. Even doing it by hand from a solid platform would be challenging enough.
    There is an emergency quick release system at the helicopter side of the cable.
