Explain HS torn (literally) from aircraft these are in some respects the strongest part of the airframe.
Now what will happen to an airframe without HS? Clue it was strong enough to break the fuselage into 4 main pieces, Cockpit, forward fuselage over wings, rear fuselage to read doors, remains of empenage minus HS and rudder.

It is the HS breaking away that needs to be explained in this incident.
