I saw a shadow passing to the side of me and it was the wing

This is the terrifying moment a pilot nearly lost his life after the wing of his plane snapped off mid-air.
But Argentine pilot Dino Moline managed to activate the plane's ballistic parachute - walking away from the crash with just a burnt foot.
The 22-year-old was performing in an air display in Santa Fe, Argentina, on August 15.

Interestingly, I was yesterday with the European representative of BRS, the manufacturer of the recovery parachute... I showed it to him, and we had a good discussion about it!
