I searched; sorry if this has been posted before - video of the crash.
The crash was caused by distorted data in the aircraft's flight control computers, according to a report released Thursday. Air Force investigators blame the distortion on moisture in the system, which caused the computers to calculate the wrong airspeed.

The Air Force says the first crash of a B-2 stealth bomber was caused by moisture in the sensors that forced bad readings.
The moisture in 3 of the 24 sensors threw off the preflight data calibrations, which caused the flight control computer to force the aircraft to pitch-up 30 degrees on takeoff. That resulted in a stall and subsequent crash on Feb. 23.
