Vector thrusting can be quirky. Looks like pilot tried to over compensate for that 1st hard bounce off the LZ. Thankfully, fuel tanks didn't rupture. Expensive mistake and some severe ass chewing by the brass coming for the pilot.

Oh man doesn’t the pilot get, like, a necktie from the ejection seat company or something now?

Learned something new, I didn't know pilot can eject at ground level. I hope any injuries are minor. LOVE our military.
