Runway excursion on landing; nose gear failed.
Cause
The pilot probably applied pressure on both brake pedals at or immediately after the landing causing a right wheel lock up and an unbalance between the braking efficiency of the wheels. The wheel locking up (right in this case) will brake less than the other wheel causing a deviation to the left. A reflex reaction of the pilot could have been that he increased the pressure on the right rudder/brake pedal, causing the phenomenon to be maintained.
