Cellphone footage captures the moment the Muller family and a nanny take off by helicopter from Santos in Brazil.

They never completed the journey.

The aircraft crashed near the city of Bertioga.

Marcello Muller, his wife, two-year-old daughter, her nanny and the pilot were all killed.

The cause of the crash wasn't immediately clear.

Muller is the grandson of the founder of one of Brazil's biggest cachaca brands.

Cachaca 51 is one of the best-selling brands of the sugar cane-based alcoholic drink used to make caipirinha.
