Looks clearly a Bird Hit...
I actually said that in my reply to the person who said it was a turbine that broke apart
It's actually more than a compressor stall, part of a blade from one of the turbines broke apart and the engine began to vibrate. Can't imagine you need to talk to company for that since a video from a passenger clearly records the change in sound.
If a blade from a turbine broke apart at TOT, you would expect more damage etc then what seems to have transpired...the sight and sounds after seem to me to indicate a bird strike...time and investigation will tell.
