Occurred on October 31, 2015 / Salvador, Bahia, Brazil
Info from Licensor: "We were watching the air show in commemoration of the aviator's day at the Farol da Barra beach, when after forty minutes of presentation, the pilot was in a solo maneuver where he was looping. At the end, something went wrong. The engine cut out one second at a height of approximately thirty meters. This made him fall into the water without chances of avoiding the accident. The rescue was delayed to arrive, and the pilot was removed unconscious but alive after being submerged for fifty minutes. He died minutes later with signs of head trauma."
