You can find literally everything in New York. Even things you'd never dream of.

A colleague convinced me to go on a helicopter ride. There are tons of companies here that happily take tourists up in their helicopters. Some of them even do it for reasonable prices.

It's absolutely amazing. The pilot hovers in all the right spots. Turns wherever needed so you can see everything from every angle. At some points it felt like you could practically reach out and touch the skyscrapers.

They take safety seriously: passengers are strapped into the cabin so nobody falls out. Phones are secured and hung around your neck. Everything else gets put in storage.

P.S. The photos are mine. I wouldn't have believed this was even possible just a couple days ago.
