Lou, even a 747 still is 'senior' at most airlines and they also scratch, brake or smash it.
Please be aware that media perception does not necessarily equal the real world, sometimes intentionally (greetings to Mr. Murdoch), sometimes just because big/new/competitive things cause more eyes to follow them as small ones.

Some incidents therefore gain more attention than others, regardless of their dangerous/not dangerous nature or even the amount of them.
But I'm ok with this video, in case you ask. I'm just wondering what could lead to such things.

As bad as it looks, I think the actual damage isn't too severe as the 'low bank angle clearance' constructions are designed with their weak spots in mind, same goes for e. g. tail strike stuff if not performed in an excessive manner.
