American Singer Oliver Tree was killed in a midair helicopter collision over Brazil on Sunday, as police are still working to identify the bodies of others on board.
The 32-year-old “Alien Boy” singer was reportedly on tour in South America this month.
Six were killed in the horrific incident.
Footage released by Rio de Janeiro’s Military Fire Department and obtained by the New York Post shows the moment the helicopter plunged out of the sky and the aftermath of a fiery explosion.

One eyewitness told NBC he saw one of the passengers jump out of the aircraft before it fell to the ground.
More from NBC:
The helicopters collided over Rio De Janeiro and crashed in the city’s western zone, firefighters said.
Tree was on the list of passengers handed to aviation authorities, but they have not been able to identify the bodies of the dead, police said.
Rio de Janeiro’s Military Fire Department said one of the helicopters crashed on the parking lot of a car dealership, where several electric vehicles were parked, igniting a fire that was extinguished.
Officials said an investigation is underway to determine the cause of the collision.
Tree performed in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on June 4, and published a video on his Instagram Saturday where he is playing soccer in a Brazilian neighborhood.
