Captain Jennifer Casey died, while Captain Richard MacDougall managed to eject and landed on the roof of a house, sustaining injuries, according to official reports.
Users have posted several videos, depicting the fatal crash of the Canadian Snowbirds jet.

Shortly before the crash, a cloud of smoke from the ejection of the pilot may be seen.
At the moment, the cause of the catastrophe remains unknown.
