Saw that happen to a PT-17 at a CAF airshow in Minneapolis back in the 90's . Was pretty windy at the time, wind seems to have flipper her right over as it starting it's takeoff roll.
A 2006 study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that Americans drink an average of 22 gallons of beer a year. That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles per gallon.

It almost looks like his wheels were both locked up. If you notice both of the wheels smoke upon contact with the runway. The only thing I can think of is he engaged the parking break somehow prior to landing.
