Video showed the pilot releasing pink smoke before the plane's wing snapped, sending the plane into a nosedive in a nearby field in San Pedro, Mexico.

Gender reveal parties continue to be all the rage for expectant parents who want to make dramatic announcements to friends and family.

But slicing a piece of cake to reveal blue or pink sponge cake concealed by frosting won't cut it anymore, as the simple tactic is yesterday's news.


With social media pressure to one-up each other, young couples are continuously devising elaborate stunts to reveal the gender of their babies in jaw-dropping fashion.

Unfortunately, one such event taking place in San Pedro, Mexico, came to a tragic end after a hired pilot flying a Cenna plane released a trail of pink smoke, indicating to onlookers below that the couple was expecting a baby girl.

During the stunt, one of the plane's wings snapped off and the aircraft crashed in a nearby field with the pilot trapped inside.

He did not survive as a result of his injuries.

A clip of the horrific incident shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Breaking Aviation News can be seen here.

The camera then shifted back to the couple standing in front of a sign that read "Oh Baby." The guests appeared not to have noticed the crash.

A local newspaper identified the pilot who perished in the crash as 32-year-old Luis Ángel N.

After the plane took a nosedive, responding Red Cross personnel pulled the trapped pilot out of the wreckage.

He was in critical condition and was taken to a hospital in Navolato, where he died of his injuries.

People shared their theories as to what may have caused the mid-air malfunction.


Others commented on the senseless tragedy.





Some people expressed their disdain for gender reveals.


The incident remains under investigation.

Linda Yaccarino—the former NBC Universal executive who later took the reins at X—stepped down as CEO of billionaire Elon Musk's platform after two years on the job just a day after Grok, the platform's AI chatbot, went on antisemitic rants and openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Grok issued deeply antisemitic responses on Tuesday following a reported software update that encouraged the bot to embrace what developers described as the “politically incorrect.” Taking that directive to heart, Grok responded with a series of disturbing posts that included praise for Hitler and even a statement expressing its aspiration to become a “digital version” of the Nazi leader.
