This footage showcases some of the most dramatic tail strikes ever caught on camera. A tail strike happens when an aircraft’s tail hits the ground or an object during takeoff or landing.

Common causes include pilot error or technical issues. After a tail strike, a thorough inspection is crucial to assess any potential damage to the aircraft.

In the video, we see a B737 experiencing a tail strike and going around, while a B767 cargo plane suffers a severe tail strike during its landing in Panama. There’s also a Boeing 777, which appears to undergo a massive tail strike as part of a certification test.
