Anti-grav helicopter

Here’s a neat video of an attack helicopter that appears to have some top-secret anti-gravity technology - watch as it floats through the air with the blades motionless.

Is it a trick? A model? No - the camera operator has synced the frames-per-second of their camera to the rotational speed of the helicopter blades. The result is that every time the video camera captures a single frame, the blades are in the same position as the last frame. The effect is that the blades appear motionless.
