Translation of the conversation is:
Wingman: Are you okay?
Crashed Pilot: Bro, everything is fine.
Wingman: Are you watching me?
Crashed Pilot: Yes, I’m watching.
You can see the vertical stabilizer cut in half, probably the cause of the crash. Likely surface to air being the cause, since that’s how almost all Russian jets are downed lately, since Ukraine is so low on jets and trained pilots.
As a bonus, the field is an alfalfa field, which actually helps date the crash to the summer. This one is being mentioned a lot of places as well, since the pilot was captured, which could be how the footage was recovered.

If you scroll down thru the comments on the link, it says the plane hit a power line just inside the border Belgorod, Russia.
