  Actually, If you follow the path of the plane carefully, you will see that he was in a high speed stall. Not much wing area on them T-Birds and little lift at low speeds.

    In case you missed this here are some different views of the accident.

    Did you see the vid of the one were a T-bird pilot pulled up to do a split S, but misjudged the field elev.

    Ended up ejecting just before his plane smacked the runway.  There is both external and in cockpit footage out on the net.
