I think a lot of factors combined to make this deadly. Not least of which, the engine seemingly strikes the plane when it yeets? Further, it happens during takeoff, so the plane is completely oriented improperly for gliding while down an engine. And then finally, as seen in the video, the catastrophic destruction was due to the frame hitting structure and beginning to tumble end over end. Ideally, they could have slammed back down into the runway and skidded to a stop eventually.
Interesting, yeah I thought they could take off down an engine but we can't see what happens to the tail engine behind the fireball. The fire could be compromising control and fuel to the other engines as well maybe. Just terrifying
down an engine doesn't usually mean "engine ripped off the airframe" it just means it's damaged or not running
