I figured this deserved it's own thread.

actual video: here is some information:

So there was a show with airplanes, somewhere in ukraine in 2002.

A sukhoi 27 was doing a cool maneuver, but it was too close to the ground. It clipped some trees, and then hit the ground, killing about 83 people and mutilating/ wounding a 150 others. The pilots survived after ejecting when the plane hit the ground. And they got 5 and 8 years in 2005, because they broke safety rules.
