I understand that these things fail in spectacular fashion all the time, but I am suspect as to the legitimacy of this video. The first is that there doesn't appear to be enough time between the catastrophic failure event, and the ground impact event, to account of the delay in time when the sound hits the camera. I believe this is caused by some scale perception issues. Based on my knowledge of how big those things are, and how far away it appears to be from the house... something is wrong. Also, the dirt flying upon impact seems wrong. Call me crazy.
