HAHA HILARIOUS

looks like the pilot didn't give the plane more speed that was needed to lift the fat plane, so it stalled and fell.

You can tell the very first moment the plane approaches the scene that this will end in kaboom because this is a rather unusual angle (putting it mildly) to start ANY landing attempt, IMO.

So close that you can see the landing gear.

There was no landing attempt. The crash occurred on takeoff - read the article.

One hell of a belly-flop. I'm guessing you don't survive something like that. Nope.

Better know your loadmaster.

they could have been secured correctly and they may have snapped at the buckles due to 60-90 tons coupled with the takeoff.. to blame a loadmaster is irresponsible if you arent positive

it was equipment shift. if he needed more speed he wouldnt have lift to begin with for rapid ascent. you can see the moment it shifted when the left side of the plane dips and he tried to correct. too bad he wasnt higher as he started to regain control
