Hi,

looks something like this tail rotor strike, but on takeoff:


Stadium lights can blind pilots during take off maneouver. Those white posts are not iluminated and very high.

Tail boom catastrofic failure like the ones in AW139 would be really scary but improbable due to manufacturer experience.
