Proton disaster images

[Satori]

The images are not good, but is it possible to identify this launch of a Proton rocket?

I have seen this as a video clip.   It's supposed to be one of the Mars 1969 launches.

It is launch of 2nd april 1969, with Mars probe 2M n°522.

I have videos of the three 1969 Proton failures here :

THREE???

It was also the rocket involved in the previous incident where the blok-D ruptured in July 1968.

Ooops, I mis-read the comment and thought it was three *Mars* launches in 1969!   Apologies for my brain having a short holiday.
