The plane had rolled to the right and was inverted. Then it apears a pull up on the elevator caused the dive.
I watched the vid a few more times. The plane was making a left turn, the right wing tip was visible above the fuse, at the time of roll over the right wingtip was still above the fuse and got higher as it rolled to inverted. This means that the plane did in fact roll left. If it was thought by the pilot as the two previous posters, to have rolled right then it is possible that the wrong correction was given and when it was thought to have rolled back to upright it had in actuality rolled inverted and the up elevator would then have been a bad thing.
Looks like it rolls right to me.... A roll and then pull on the stick.
