The death of a 23-year-old student who was killed when a helicopter crash-landed on him in the middle of the street is raising questions about how aware people are of their surroundings when outside listening to portable audio devices...

Really???

This was an issue 40 years ago with transistor radios and headphones.

Transistor radios normally came with one earphone.
