Corrected entry: All winches on choppers have an emergency release in case something like the shark grabbing it happened - why didn't they use it? (00:38:30)

Correction: It was a rescue team. They would do anything to rescue Jim, and in this case things happened too fast, so the chopper was pulled without the crew being able to do anything about it. Also it would make the rescue team look bad if they just cut the wires and let Jim fall into the ocean. So I guess they stood up against a dilemma and weren't thinking straight.
