Wasn't that caused by a bird-hit? IIRC, Discovery Channel had a programme in which this video featured. An object was noticed entering and causing a flare in one of the engines of the plane, which subsequently caught fire, during a slow-motion analysis.

And the pilots survived, even though the ejection was at near-ground level.
