After another tragic accident was reported to have claimed the life of a major league star, this time that of pitcher Roy Halladay, a video came out in which his last flight was recorded.

Statements by witnesses who saw the small aircraft collapse into the Gulf of Mexico, on a key near Tampa, indicate that the former Toronto Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies launcher was flying erratically.

Likewise, a video obtained by TMZ Sports shows how the sports star, who was 40 years old, appears making large changes in altitude while flying about 100 feet high and then would have descended a few feet above the water, in something that medium described as "showboating".

Other media, such as AOL, reported that when he indicated his desire to fly an airplane, his wife had disagreed. However, after flying with him, she ended up accepting it. Soon after, the son of a pilot, he bought his Icon A5, two-seat, single-engine plane.

According to MLB Halladay, he had more than 200 career wins and a 3.38 earned RBI. In 2010, he had made history in that sport when he became the only pitcher to achieve a perfect game in a regular season and a no-hitter game in the postseason.

The sports world has expressed its deep pain at the premature death of this great athlete who, on two occasions, was a candidate for the MLB Hall of Fame.
