Well, if the engine stalls (as opposed to the rotors) in the R22, then that's the point at which we have to enter an autorotation, which is quite often preceded by cursing. On the other hand, the restart part is seldom feasible until we're close enough to the ground to say 'fuck you, no, we're landing this thing'.
