Looks and sounded like a ball joint snapping in the right front.

I could buy that if it were just the right side. Focus on the left....both wheels seem to retract with an obvious force that appears separate from the weight applied by the car.

Heck, I don't know, definitely odd to see though.   :D

Different angle showing left side of the car. Something that effects both sides definitely broke...IMHO:



I'm going with air suspension component failure for now.....

It should not have high centered.  Something happened to the front suspension. (IMHO)

Here's an educated wild ass guess:

Is it possible that when they high centered they managed to break an air line to the front suspension.  Stock Caddies are air all around, and I can't believe they totally scrap the system in this beast.  I know they keep a stepped up version in regular limos and hearses, because it is the best way to handle both the added empty weight and the changing loads.

Addition:

That thing did not high center!  It looks like air bag failure.  Look at the way the dust blows behind the front wheel even after it dropped to the ground.  Do you suppose that Goodyear got a hot call from the Secret Service?

not sure what it means, but if you watch the second video, you can see the right front tire lift off the ground with the loud noise.

Left front bounces but you can not see the pavement under it to tell if it leaves the ground.

Regardless of what it is every farmer knows one fact:

Was Michelle riding front seat-right side?
