Spanish opposition leader Mariano Rajoy and other politicians on Thursday survived a helicopter crash outside Madrid. The aircraft had just taken off outside a bullring in the town of Mostoles when it went down back, although not from a great height, said Esperanza Aguirre, the president of the Madrid regional government, who was in the helicopter along with Rajoy and a few other people. "We could have been killed, but we are fine,"Aguirre said, according to the national news agency Efe.
