Dashcam footage shows moment business jet crashes into Florida neighbourhood

A dashboard camera records a drive along a wet, overcast road before an explosion erupts to the right. A fireball rises beside the traffic, followed by thick black and grey smoke as the recording car continues forward.

Guardian News opens the brief footage with a warning that viewers may find it distressing. There is no spoken commentary. The upload's description reports that all nine people aboard the business jet died in Sunday's crash in a Florida neighbourhood, citing US transport secretary Sean Duffy.

The Short drew roughly 320,000 views in its first day, around twenty times the channel's usual first-day audience for the format. Viewers repeatedly discuss how quickly the impact happens, but the recording does not establish what caused the crash.

A separate Guardian News upload, "Burning crater seen on ground after Florida plane crash", shows the aftermath at the site. That footage also drew an unusually large early audience, though the dashcam recording attracted substantially more views.
