I've seen it before somewhere. It's a commercial of some kind. The landing is not real. It's funny to see.

Crash ;)

Seen it before. It is an RC model I think.

If I remember correctly, I've seen this before- I think it's a flight test clip. The pilot was trying to simulate a really nasty arrival, including jamming the brakes on touchdown.

I hear laughter too - which also makes me think it wasn't a real life test.

I could swear I've seen that before, with different audio (same reaction from the people watching, but no pilot voice)... but I can't for the life of me find it again. Whatever the case, it doesn't look very fake to me... no reason why a big jet wouldn't do that if you really smacked it down and hit the brakes right away (especially if it was lightly loaded, as might be the case in a test flight).

I've seen it before & read that it was done for a beer commercial - the pilot voice that you heard Rotty was just added on by the ad-men.
