Movie star Shane West was injured in a helicopter crush early yesterday morning.  The accident happened near Seattle.  The helicopter was flying low when it suddenly crashed to the ground.  

Luckily West and the pilot were thrown out before the helicopter started to bum.  

They were brought to hospital in Seattle.  

It is expected that the star will have to stay in the hospital for a few weeks.  

It seems possible that the accident was caused by a fault in the computer-controlled equipment.  

Some of the experts think that it is possible that the helicopter was programmed wrongly and nothing could be done.  

Paul Christiansen, one of the experts, thinks that the pilot was given the wrong flying instructions from the earth and was obliged to obey them or maybe the engine wasn't checked.  

In hospital Mr West was made to tell the reporters everything he remembered about the crash.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is situated on the British Isles. The British Isles consist of two large islands, Great Britain and Ireland, and above five thousand small islands. Their total area is over 315 000 square kilometers. The United Kingdom is made up of four countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast respectively. 

The British isles are separated from the European continent by the North Sea and the English Channel. The western coast of Great Britain is washed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea. The surface of the British Isles varies very much. The north of Scotland is mountainous and is called Highlands, while the south, which has beautiful valleys and plains, is called Lowlands. The north and west of England are mountainous, but all the rest - east, center and southeast - is a vast plain. Mountains are not very high. Ben Nevis is the highest mountain. (1343) 

There are a lot of rivers in GB, but they are not very long. The Severn is the longest river, while the Thames is the deepest and the most important one.

The British Parliament consists of two chambers: the House of Lords and the House of Commons. 

There are three main political parties in Great Britain: the Labour, the Conservative and the Liberal parties. The Liberal party is the ruling party nowadays.
