Narrative:

Engines were started. All checklist items were accomplished for before start, after start, before taxi, after taxi, run-up, before takeoff, and in-position. Takeoff roll was begun. When the aircraft was approximately 4 KTS slower than V2, the right main gear tire blew out. The captain took all appropriate action to maintain directional control but the aircraft ran off the right side of the runway into soft and muddy ground. The aircraft then began to slide sideways and to turn further right. The captain retarded both throttles when the aircraft had turned beyond 90 degrees from the runway. The aircraft slid through a small (less than a ft) depression in the dirt and sheared off the left main landing gear. The aircraft came to rest on the right main gear and left wing facing back the way it came.
