Here are some scary pictures of vibration / torsion destruction of a glass airplane   

 

 

 

Here are the pictures of the Columbia 350 that broke it's tail upon hard landing and severe main gear shimmy upon heavy braking.  No other damage to A/C.  And, the tail never hit the ground.  Purely violent shimmy did this....
