When it comes to flying an aircraft, there are many technicalities that a pilot needs to check before taking off. However, sometimes even after everything has been checked, there are chances of undergoing a malfunction.

Stunt pilot Chad Barber was in for a shock when his plane engine stopped working mid-air. It happened during his aerobatics routine in a Pitts Special, after he had completed a negative G maneuver, which was followed by a four-point roll and a pitch up to vertical, as stated by General Aviation News, reports NDTV.

At an altitude of 2,500 metres, there was little Barber could do to prevent the crash. A video of the incident was posted by Barber Aviation, where one can easily see the engine stopping.
