Interesting landing technique

Hosted on Facebook.  You can safely skip to the halfway point.

That is as phony as phony can be.

The puffs of smoke when the rear landing gear touch down are identical both times. Fake.

But don't let Lem see this video - he will never want to go for his second ride in an airplane.

That's why they stop serving booze when it's about time to land.

Clearly a rendering and not an optically recorded video. Real life doesn't look that. I should know - I used to have a real life.

Mmm, booze...

Yep, a simulation. Though there have been folks who have attempted to land on the nose wheel, not intentionally. Some ended well others not.
