Ya but what a strange place for a load shift, no high body angle, no heavy acceleration or deceleration. Normally load shifts happen on takeoff where you have a high nose up body angle and acceleration at the same time. Guess it could have happened on descent though.

The video shows the elevators full nose down but that must be just be part of the program used to make it.

Not sure if you've seen this one but that's not much of a debris trail for a 767. Suggests a lot more vert. vel. than horiz. I'd say.
