To me it appears that the LH engine is still running as it crosses the fence.
There appears to be no banking to the live engine or any directional control issues as it crosses the fence.
what you do hear is an irregular ‘popping’ sound.
With a radial engine ( or any reciprocating engine) you can have a partial engine failure ( loose a jug) follows by more cylinders failing.
So it drops 1-2-3- Cylinders in a short period of time.
