One dead in horrific Michigan airshow jet truck explosion

At least one person has died at an airshow in Michigan after a jet truck exploded on Saturday afternoon.

The truck that exploded was traveling over 280 miles per hour before exploding into flames as the helpless audience watched.

The accident occurred in Battle Creek, Michigan. The video of the incident went viral on social media where the Shockwave Jet Truck was seen torpedoing in flames.

The emergency crew was alerted and the show was immediately suspended after the explosion. Local authorities and the FAA are making sense of the situation as they investigate the cause and safety protocols of the event.

The Shockwave Jet Truck was racing two planes when it exploded into flames, killing driver, Chris Darnell.
