Firefighting plane hits overhead cables and explodes in Chile
A Chilean firefighter plane crashed into a road in a fiery inferno after it snagged on electricity poles while flying low.
The crash, which killed the pilot and injured four other people, took place on a road near the Panguilemo Aerodrome in Talca, a commune in Chile’s Maule region, on Monday afternoon.
The footage shows cars on a dual carriageway with the plane flying towards the camera before it suddenly snagged on some electricity poles and cables, causing its right wing to disintegrate and the plane to catch fire.
It then came crashing down in a giant fireball and smashed into the road at speed.
