    talk about a rough landing. he hit that berm off the rough end of the runway.... DAMN!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    That's an old clip, and a very "unimproved" airstrip, so I'm assuming it's from Viet Nam.

    Found this on a list of C-130 crashes, it may fit the bill:

    May 15 1968: C-130E 63-7875, c.n. 3945, of the 29th Military Airlift Squadron, hard landing at Quang Tri, South Vietnam, left wing broke, written off.
