  • Incredible. The passengers and crew are lucky to be alive, and congratulations to the person who designed the landing gear.

  • You could mark down at least 3 landings in the Logbook for that flight.

  • It's all right, the tray tables were up.

  • Looks like a micro burst event. At the very least the plane should be pressure re-certified because the rear pressure dome could have been streesed with the tail strike. You would also need to magnaflux and exray all components of the landing gear. Really wild video. Cool.

  • @rossyp2k6

    5.5 degrees, but yes, it's still almost twice as steep.

  • Jeez... that must have been borderline as far as some component not failing.

  • Ride 'em, cowboy!! Amazing!

  • scaring omg

  • Brutal wingflex and flapping on the initial impact, shit...

  • damn a hell of a bounce AND a tail strike on landing...ouch

  • GTF out of here!!!!!!!

  • the hell?!
