Rejected takeoff, according to a friend.

Update: some nerd caught a video of the actual rejected takeoff. Pretty cool:

Cool arse story to tell as long as nobody broke an ankle.

The first Captain I ever flew with used to keep a Pure Leaf tea bottle full of bourbon in his bag, just in case.

He may have had a problem.
