Hudson Helicopter Crash Likely Caused by ‘Jesus Nut’ Failure

Apr 13, 2025 | Government, International, Security

A recent helicopter crash in the Hudson River, involving a Bell 206, may have been caused by the failure of a crucial part known as the ‘Jesus Nut’.

  • The crash resulted in the deaths of all occupants, including Spanish executive Agustín Escobar and Navy SEAL veteran pilot Sean Johnson.
  • Aviation expert Julian Bray noted the main rotor detached, causing the helicopter to plummet.
  • This detachment likely stemmed from a maintenance failure, as the part requires regular checks.

The rotor’s detachment led to a catastrophic fuselage failure, sealing the fate of the passengers.
