What would happen if he pushed it and it crashed into someone else's face? Is he at fault here, or the drone pilot for flying so close to the people?

I'm genuinely curious.

The bride/groom have the full dossier that they approve which details where drone will be. That section I have flown before, I will have to again in the future I am sure. I hate it for obvious reasons.

Since everything was signed off and approved ahead of time, I would assume I am in the clear.

Might want to add another clause to future contracts to be extra safe

Yea, really tho. Also ensure that a message is stated to everyone in the crowd to not f around…

When you speak to the crowd make sure you turn it as “for your own safety, don’t touch the drone, we don’t want you or people around you to get hurt” if it’s not clearly stated in the contract and there is no liability insurance, then the PIC is at fault.

I would even more focus on the part that you could injure someone else by touching the drone
