The video seems to start just after a bounce, then landing pitched down on the nose wheel into the second bounce, hence why it's so violent. Then again a pitch down, unloading the wings completely, at which point you can't expect the structure to withstand now a basically ballistic flight. Attempted corrections are out of phase with the motion, which only amplifies the error.

The conditions initiating the first bounce may be somewhat unique, but from there on the events are likely similar to other bouncing accidents.

Fedex MD11, Tokyo 2009, @28sec:

Crash: Fedex MD11 at Tokyo on Mar 23rd 2009, turned on its back while landing in gusty winds

Is the MD-11 really dangerous to land?
