YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Wild video footage shows a stricken Russian fighter pilot lying on the ground next to a giant, deadly inferno he caused by crashing his bomber into an apartment building close to the border with Ukraine.

Dramatic images from Monday night’s crash had captured the pilot parachuting at the edge of the nine-story complex in the Sea of Azov port city of Yeysk as a giant fireball erupted from the middle.

As the death toll rose to 14 — including three kids — video emerged of the pilot lying in the street at the edge of the building as further explosions erupted from ammunition on the jet.

He lies motionless on his back, still connected to his parachute webbing, as alarmed onlookers rush up and ask if he is OK.
