That is what it looked like to me anyway.

What the?!?! At that altitude, a bump like that could have caused problems for the plan too. Crazy stunt.

Helicopter structural failure

These video clips show what happens when they get into a resonant condition being close to the ground. Maybe Deradlerisgalant can shed some light on what causes this.

I think it has something to do with the downdraft from the blades interacting with the airframe.

Caribou accident in Gimli, Canada

Have you guys seen this one? [Warning: not a happy ending]

Unfortunately they left some control surface locks on during take-off
(improper pre-flight check). Pilot was son of owner but did not have as
much flight experience. The Caribou was modified with new engines.

It's a link: http://www.big-boys.com/articles/oldplanecrash.html
