What appears to have happened just seems inconceivable.

The loss of life could have been so much worse. The CNN video shows the aircraft hit the sea wall at a very high angle of attack, the tail is torn off and the aircraft groundloops almost 360 degrees counterclockwise with the nose and left wingtip on the ground and the rear of the fuselage at an angle of what looks to me to be as high as 30 degrees. Just amazing.
