Looks like it lost the tail rotor or something equivalent.

I referred to this video earlier, but rewatching it, it’s not his chopper and it’s not Calabasas. People have identified that crash as from Dubai last year.

That would be like being in a washing machine before crashing, thrown around the cabin like a rag doll.

The video shows the helicopter on fire as it tumbles end over end to the ground. That indicates a major malfunction causing fuel to be ignited. A broken fuel line? A tail rotor blade breaking off and hitting something to ignite the fire?

A comment to the video says it is from another crash in 2019. This is not the Kobe crash video.
