Oops! Reminds me of a shot I saw from RAF Brize Norton. Can't remember if it was a VC-10 or Tristar but apparently they emptied it (of fuel, I think) from the nose first and it ended up on it's tail. The aircraft was a write-off unfortunately.
Is this what happened here?

Pretty much, but it was uneven cargo placement
