Since he had to be removed from the plane that likely would have meant a fatality. Evidently he suffered engine trouble immediately after take off and was attempting to circle around and land. Private video shows his plane descending rapidly and under limited power. I witnessed a similar crash while at my daughters soccer game <span style="font-weight: bold">when a Cessna 172 lost power.
