A helicopter shot is a camera shot taken from a helicopter, typically showing sweeping aerial views of landscapes, cityscapes, or action sequences: The film opens with a helicopter shot of the Manhattan skyline.

In cricket, a helicopter shot is an aggressive batting stroke where the batsman swings the bat in a circular motion overhead, resembling helicopter blades, to flick the ball behind square leg.
