There has been some suggestion on another forum that perhaps s/he hit a wire while coming in to land in the open space s/he eventually came to rest in.
Looks like he intended to land in the open area on the left side and hit power lines coming in.
If you look away from the copter to the left as it enters the picture, you will see the lines snap and the poles bend.
That is what I missed the first few times I looked at it. I was concentrating on the copter, not the background.
Just some food for thought.
