Seconds before the impact, the pilot was able to save himself with his parachute, but a girl died in the explosion when the fire caught a car on the ground. Fatal accidents occur once more and once more at air shows.

The rubble of a burned car is seen as firefighters cordon off the area where a plane from the Italian Frecce Tricolori aerobatic team crashed during training outside the northern Italian city of Turin (September 16, 2023).
