MD11 Go Round

The time frame in which this occurred is stunning.....

After the first touchdown they had 2 seconds in which to go around.

At 4 seconds after the first touchdown the nose is already coming back down.

At 7 seconds the second touchdown occurs and the whole tail section breaks off and rolls left, as well as the left gear.

At the 2 second point it was already all over.......
