A loss of control due to jumpers hanging on followed by said jumpers tumbling off the aircraft and separating said tailplane…
Tails don’t just fall off perfectly good aircraft.
Same as running out of elevator as the airplane rapidly pitches up..does lead to a stall.
But none of that could ever matter…as the tail came off.
