Looks like he planned a 3-turn spin but it became a 6-turn spin.

My vote is for an accelerated stall.

Angle of attack is a bitch.   Could've been worse, though.  He was oh-so-close to making it.

Agree with the accelerated stall theory.  Had to chuckle at the silly tagline on the video:

"Stunt plane flew too low..."

That can happen when you stall that way and attempt to recover. 

Glad everyone made it out OK.
