Can anyone identify/ explain this UAV blowing up in a YT short? (youtube.com)

Sorry for using YT shorts. That was just the original source.

I've never seen a situation like this before. The UAV looks like an RQ-21, but why is it blowing up over a lake in the US? The poster has shared no editional information but seems legit based on their posting history. Does anyone have any explanations?

Well it wouldn't be the intended payload for a drone like this

Do you think this was in Ukraine or something..? It's in the US. It was likely loaded with tannerite, and it was likely done for the "yeeehawww" of it, based on the channel's content.
