Ioannis Kandyllis, president of Greece's committee for aviation accidents, said four passengers, including Fenton, disembarked from the chopper and were escorted back to a private lounge to await their flight back to London. But as they were in the lounge, the victim broke away and returned to the tarmac, "rushing to the helicopter at a fast pace," Kandyllis said, according to The Telegraph.
"Witnesses we spoke to said he had a phone to his ear and was walking fast to the aircraft, defying ground crew shouting to him 'Stop, stop!’ Within seconds the tragic accident occurred. It was horrific," he said.
