From the crease in the fuselage and the rippling of the skin to the rear of that, it looks like it 'broke it' back'. Unlikely to be repaired on a new aircraft, let alone an ageing B737-400. It must have been one hell of a hard landing.

Just a little bit harder than a well known Irish landing - note just 3.8g recorded. Boing must design to ultimate strength +2.5g x 1.5 Safety factor then - here is the proof!
