The choppers were among seven that had taken off simultaneously from the the Royal Malaysian Navy (TLDM) Base in Lumut, Perak, Tuesday, April 23, shortly after 9 am local time.
But the footage shows how two of the touched rotors at a height of around 200ft - sending both aircraft hurtling to the ground in deadly tailspins.
One helicopter crashed onto a running track and burst into flames. The other is understood to have come down on the edge of the stadium.
