How is the 222’s t/r authority? It is coming in with a crab angle, and to me it looks like the pilot in arresting the descendrate might have reached the pedal stop (or something restricting more left pedal to be applied) and in panic pulls in a hefty amount of collective to abort the landing.
With that amount of spin, I recon the t/r departing is the result and not the cause, but the pilot survived and there’s a lot of footage for the NTSB to work with, so time will tell
