That was my first thought at well. The "expedited" approaches I've seen with those things involve extreme landing flares. The same maneuver may have been attempted in that very short/shallow LZ (WRT obstacles).

Also, after seeing the (other) pics of the tail section floating around, that was clearly not your "run of the mill" Blackhawk either.
