Wow. More than half of the people on board died, plus that monster fireball consuming the plane rapidly.....scary.

This was bad, but what went wrong with it to be like that, was it with the system or what ?

Shocking to see the intensity of the fire after the bounced landing caused the partial breakup. A lot of fuel was on-board, I read somewhere that the crew was not able to dump excess fuel.
