At around 11am, firefighters, after carrying out their mission in Montalba, flew their plane back to their headquarters near Villeneuve de la Raho lake, in the Pyrenees Orientales department, southern France.

Jean Pascal and his colleagues working nearby decided to get closer to see the firefighters land. Jean said he is passionate about anything that flies and decided not to miss out on anything related to this.

While filming the firefighting planes landing on the lake, Jean noticed one was flying much lower than expected.

At first, Jean and his friend thought the pilot wanted to impress the onlookers.

And indeed this pilot succeeded in "impressing" everyone when he flew the plane close to a passerby.

At 1:08 of the video, the second plane flies over the shoulder of a bystander before landing on Villeneuve de la Raho lake.

According to Jean, the man watching was also careless.

Although the authorities did not prohibit people from passing through this road and no one thought the second plane was flying low, this once again serves as a warning to all viewers to be more careful to avoid unfortunate incidents that may occur in the future.
