I can’t work out exactly what it is but appears to be something that was outside the aircraft on the other side of the hedge.
Landing gear breaking off.

It that the pilot I see bailing/baling out?

That looks just looks like a firm landing to me. I would expect it to look a lot worse before the undercarriage failed.

The tailwheel touches first, bringing the mains down a bit harder than normal. Probably nothing more than that.

Just looks to me from the angle shot that the thing falls straight down the last seconds there.

I’ve landed Piper Comanches and Cessna 310s–two pesky types in the flare–harder than that.
