Absolutely no idea of what the `picture` should be inverted....

Pilot killed, aircraft destroyed.
If that qualifies as "nearly goes west", I shudder to think what would qualify as having fully 'gone west' ​​​​​​​

People on the ground also killed?
I'd say the maneuver itself went South ... but that's a different turn of phrase.

It looked to me like some version of an aileron roll series that didn't apply that little bit of nose up as the roll commenced...interesting bounce and go/touch and go there.

(Guessing the fatal injuries were related to the ejection (any number of ways that can to wrong) as it looked like a good chute)

Another vivid example of 'HOW THE EARTH SUCKS!' Yak-130 crashing and bouncing off the runway (from 06 sec to 21 sec)
