Ouch !!! .... Where abouts was this incident??

Yeah, all that came to mind when I saw that was the pilots poor effort of trying to keep that starboard wing off the deck. He did not even attempt it just banged it down on the runway. Should have tried to keep the bloody thing flying until the right wing stalled. Could have been way worse.

If you look at the third pic above you will see both upper spoilers deployed. of course it was going to dump itself ten feet to the ground. may have been better to disable them. But the long drop was going to happen.
