Guys stop believing Hollywood. RPGs, SMHs or MMGs don’t bring down Helos, specially those (Attack Helicopters) that are build to take direct hit from HMGs.
I have seen videos of Iraqi insurgents spraying barrage of 7.62 ammo on 2 low flying UH-60 (100 feet or so) from a roof top, both were able to turn around and get out of danger zone. Probability of RPG hitting a flying helo (X,Y,Y on point with factors like gravity, windage, and rugged build) , or exploding near it without a proximity fuse is very very low.
