I saw the crash vid a couple days ago, it's horrible. Pretty surreal to watch an aircraft that big just hang there almost motionless in the air.
I'd be curious to know exactly what the cargo manifest was. If vehicles broke loose inside on liftoff that would certainly do it - even just one armored HMMWV is 12000+lbs and that's about the lightest truck they use. I haven't heard of loading vehicles into 747s before though. Our M-ATVs went into Afg on military birds like the C-17.
