A fighter jet stunt went horribly wrong in Bangladesh, leading to the sudden death of the 32-year-old pilot.

CCTV footage has been shared, showing the video of the incident, which looked like a scene straight out of an action movie as the Yakovlev Yak-130 jet attempted daring aerial manoeuvres reminiscent of Top Gun.

But Squadron Leader Asim Jawad was no Tom Cruise when the stunt turned fatal, with the jet scraping along the runway during a low-altitude aileron roll, causing sparks to fly and smoke to billow.

The aileron roll is an aerobatic manoeuvre in which an aircraft attempts a full 360-degree revolution about its longitudinal axis. The footage captured the harrowing moment before the Bangladesh Air Force pilot tried to pull up the Russian-made jet.

The Independent notes that Jawad and his co-pilot Wing Commander Sohan Hasan Khan were both ejected from the aircraft before landing in a river, where they were rescued.

Asim later died in the hospital while Sohan remains in critical condition, according to local media.

The horrible scene will live forever on YouTube:
