Sounds like 'head separated from body' or alike injuries.

Worst case of being cut in half I've ever seen

More likely she braced her fall with her skull, but her neck muscles were inadequate to the task of keeping her alive. I think Russians need to start putting in cybernetic shock absorbers.

I just wanted to give an example of an injury incompatible with life. /u/emzili@programming.dev thankfully linked the Wikipedia article onto the definition of the fixed term. From the linked Wikipedia article total body disruption might be a possible trauma caused by

a fall at terminal velocity onto a solid surface or water [.]

The injury you suggested probably doesn't count yet, as it's not 'evident' enough to be incompatible with life.
