dont think so. a lot of european, russian and american shows have had disasters tho.

Rox last year at this airshow a pilot died, I dont know what plane he was flying but yep, disasters do happen, the Tornado was really low and sounded louder than thunder, very cool,

What I meant to say was they also had Tornado's and Jaguar's, they are louder than thunder, the Tornado's did a few fly by's, one at high speed with the wings swept back, not supersonic but on full afterburner about 100-150ft altitude, oooo, sounds amazing, louder than thunder, I imagine more like a volcano...
