AA 763 engine failure on ground run

Looks rather dramatic, thankfully nobody was hurt. There's not many pictures of engines broken (for comparison) but I was rather surprised at what appears to have been evidence of a fairly nasty fire. The turbine part of the engine casing appears severely damaged.
