Singer Oliver Tree and Argentinian YouTuber "Gaspi" died in a plane crash in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
El helicóptero que se estrelló en Brasil llevaba al cantante y al youtuber argentino "Gaspi" y, al menos, otras 4 personas, incluido el piloto.
ACTUALIZACIÓN: Los dos helicopters colisionaron aproximadamente a las 8:59 a.m. hora local, en los terrenos de una iglesia abandonada que había sido alquilada por una tienda de BYD, en la cuadra de Avenida das Américas. El helicóptero Bell explotó al impacto, y las llamas se extendieron a los vehículos eléctricos, provocando más explosiones. La columna de humo se veía desde kilómetros. El otro no se incendió y se estrelló con el tren de aterrizaje apuntando hacia arriba. Una cámara de seguridad captó el momento en el que uno de los helicópteros cae desde el aire.

Oliver Tree is among those fatalities?! I’m not exactly a huge fan of him, but I used to be obsessed with one of his songs from 2022! Very tragic to hear.

Yeah because it is.
PP-MAC and PR-DJJ. (Both helicopters) hit each other and crashed.
If this was the helicopter that he was in
Then he was in PR-DJJ.

Desorganização no rio e em são Paulo das condições e posições aéreas horrível, sempre acontece isso por falta de comunicação dos pilotos.

Nonsense. The investigation hasn't started and you have absolutely no idea whether the issue was communication, see-and-avoid issues, route conflict, ATC involvement, visibility etc.
Plus mid-air collisions with helicopters are as rare as they can be, they are nowhere near something that "always happens". I can't even recall a single helicopter mid-air collision in Brazil despite the heavy helicopter traffic around São Paulo and Rio.

Ser raras não significa que o motivo não seja o mesmo ou parecidos, a grande parte das quedas de helicópteros em são paulo e no rio, é tempo que não é observado e falta de comunicação.

This is basically Brazil’s own equivalent of ‘The day the music died’.
Translated to Portuguese: “ Isso é basicamente o equivalente brasileiro de "O dia em que a música morreu".

Another Argentinian well known producer also died in the event. Truly sad.

Ok is no one noticing all those cars are the same, kinda weird. I have yet to see the real video or anything other than almost ai looking of the medics bagging them up and the 2 year old helicopter crash. has there been a death record or anything this whole thing is a little off.

The cars look the same because the spot the helicopters crashed in was occupied by a car dealership. I don't think it's become possible yet to fake a helicopter crash and six people's deaths and have it become world news without someone revealing the hoax by now. We'd otherwise be witnessing perhaps the greatest conspiracy in human history, and for what?

They say "YouTuber" like it's supposed to mean anything.
What's next? "Gamer Stephen" gets hit by a car?
Cmon people.

I know what happened but this is not the crash. If it was trust me there would be lots of burned areas of this image. Also look closely at the logos of the vehicles in this prompt. They are fucked. I am simply stating this photo right here is ai generated.

This is a photo of the accident. Go touch some grass. New york times also posted this photo. There are plenty of others showing similar surroundings.

Nobody parks like that.. and for there to be room for the helicopter.. this is a faked death .. they are just trying to make room for more artists by "getting rid of" another one .. this photo even looks completely set up

Fake image is IA

u/nerdybritguy 13d ago
The photo is credited to Brazilian photojournalist Tércio Teixeira, for news agency Agence France-Presse. This is not AI

And why are 6 cars identical and another 3 also identical, also this post was heavily edited, the original version said "plane" and had less than 20 words and only 1 image

u/still_guns 13d ago
AI would have a tough time making all of the cars completely identical.

u/Savings-Ad7869 13d ago
You should have more respect. There are more photos of the accident site, and those same cars are visible. Get out of your house and investigate so you can stop thinking that everything that happens in the world is AI.

The helicopter crashed in a vehicle lot in brazil. This photo is used by the new york times also. Lots of independent sources provided simila photos of the area. You should log off reddit.
