Hi All--
I'm in agreement with the previous posts. But one thing NOT mentioned in any of those posts: Many times, aerial video is done over water. (I shoot cruise ships and other marine subjects.) If my heli goes down, the last thing I want is a vest and gear strapped to my body...unless it's a PFD (personal flotation device). Why not just go swimming with an anchor?!
