Ill-fated launch of Titan missile C-4 , in the 9th Titan I launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida

Views of what appears to be a smooth launching of a Titan missile. The service structure erector is released and the missile takes off. The camera tracks it as it moves ever higher, with rocket motors burning smoothly. As its image begins to get quite small in the distance, at TC:01:26, the missile begins failing, and explodes in a huge fireball. (Note: This was Missile C-4, the ninth Titan I launch and the second Lot C missile. The guidance compartment collapsed from aerodynamic stress 52 seconds into launch, causing missile pitch down followed by Range Safety destruct. The falling object is the second stage, which separated intact and inadvertently began firing. With no attitude control, it tumbled end over end until shutting down from propellant starvation and impacting the ocean several miles downrange.)
