On his podcast, X-Pac 12360, the former DX and nWo member shared a story that illustrated McMahon's now patented comfort with reckless abandon:

"I went skydiving with Shane and Madusa [Alundra Blaze], I think I was 22. Shane and I are close to the same age. I was scared to death, and Shane was the first one out the door of the plane. He did a moonsaultbackwards. I watched the interview [about the helicopter accident] with the Pilot and Shane, he was unnerved and it doesn't surprise me at all, not once did I think, 'I hope he's alright,' I knew he was alright."

Here's the video of Shane and the reporters:

McMahon's helicopter departed Weschester County Airport, according to WABC in New York. Upon crashing, a commercial flight heading to Kennedy Airport heard the emergency call, and relayed it to controllers at a FAA radar facility.

"We heard some noise, and it became very clear to me that I could no longer continue flying the helicopter," Regtien said. "So I decided to do an auto-rotation landing in the water."

Emergency responders hurried to the site and ferried McMahon and Regtien to shore.

Shane's brush with death is certainly life imitating art. His durability is one of WWE lore. Having being involved in some of WWE's most dramatic stunts, perhaps he's been preparing for this moment his whole life.
