Two fighter jets collided mid-air during an air show in Idaho, sending both aircraft crashing to the ground as crew members parachuted to safety.

Dramatic footage captured the moment two fighter jets collided during an aerial demonstration at the Gunfighter Skies air show in Idaho.

The aircraft tumbled through the sky before crashing to the ground, triggering explosions and thick black smoke.

Four crew members ejected safely and were later reported to be in stable condition.

The incident happened near Mountain Home Air Force Base during the second day of the event, prompting an emergency response and an investigation into the crash.

The last fatal crashes at an air show in the US came in 2024 when two people were killed in separate crashes at different events.
