It looks like something hit it... Maybe a Sudden BIG GUST of WIND from the RIGHT SIDE of the Drone, as there seems to be a lot of waves, turning the Drone to the Left, at that moment it fell. I live on an Island surrounded by sea, and know the Gust there is on the beaches. Right now you cannot even fly a drone with the wind we are recently having.
All of a sudden it freaked out ? It seems it spinned rapidly to the left then rolled in the air...... Where you touching the controls when it spinned ? Did you have prop guards on ? Any abnormal WARNINGS like Compass / IMU Errors ?
I notice you where on Sports Mode. I found this thread, read it -
Be carefull when you are in Sport mode and you have the prop guards mounted!
Short movements at high speed and a little help from the wind can give you a tilted Spark, and this results in shut-of engines and crash...
It maybe tilted on the Left and the engines shut off and fell ?
My Conclusion is that -
1) There was lot of WIND and thats what caused the flip. Do you have a reading the wind speed at that moment when you took off ?
2) Also although there are some birds / seagulls chirping in the Background, did you notice any bird attack ? Was your drone far way or in Line of Sight, I think Line of Sight ? Did you have the Final Fright as you watched it in the Video, or looking at it Visually as it was in Line of Sight ? Like that you can determine more what happened eg. Bird Attack, always keep a spotter near you, it helps a lot, even if they see something approaching it.
The drone seems very stable, if it didnt give you warning I wouldn't suspect for a Compass / IMU Failure all in a matter of about 1-2 Seconds, its like its HIT by something.

Open a CASE with DJI Support, they are very nice and will surely help you.
BEWARE - OF THE BATTERY ! Dont charge it or put it indoor if it got wet, I would get rid of it ASAP, if there is a short in the electronics it can take fire and the FIRE WILL BE VERY DANGEROUS with LI-PO Batteries, if you have an open space keep it outside where there is nothing to catch fire, and place it in a LI-PO Bag if you have one.
Dont open the Spark yourself, open a Case with DJI and move from there, yours seems a Genuine Case, and you have proof with Video too. They will ask you for the Flight Logs / Black Box Data, they will guide you, I am sure.
