Holy smokes, that's crazy!! There is NO margin for error at all.

Nothing quite like flying straight at a mountain to gain altitude. Yikes!
-
Great video! My dad used to fly for MAF in Africa and he mostly flew the 185. Do you know who the pilot was in this video?
-
Idiots with the comment about a possible go around, obviously not a pilot. No go-around possible here, nice flying!
-
You could do a go-around there! You have enough space. Perform a spiral climb to the left. When you have 10.000 ft, go for another landing atttempt.

He could have did a go around. What do mean one way? Cool video.

The strip is at 5000' and the aircraft is a non turbo C185. The terrain around the runway climbs dramatically and once you are on late final you cannot climb faster than the terrain. Trust me - I was there
A one way strip means that there is only one direction available for landing and one for taking off
