I've seen some hangars that have Big A$$ Fans installed, but this is the first one with 100+ hp.
(Edit: Interestingly, with the new PoA software, I cannot link the BAF website to the "Big A$$ Fans" text in the sentence above, presumably because it has a-s-s in the text of the link. But it lets me post it inline: https://bigassfans.com/)

If that was a stall/spin, that pilot is beyond lucky. Otherwise, unless he was buzzing the hangar and caught his wheels, I don't see how he could end up like that.Plane crashes into hangar at Long Beach Airport, pilot survives

I too am thinking it was a stall spin but I'll let the youtube crash professionals determine a cause.
In the end, glad everyone is okay, but the only thing I can figure is a low altitude stall into the hangar.
