Pilot was obviously too low.
You can play it on slomo, if the plane had gone to the side at all he would have hit him with the front gear leg.
Also what camera was that recorded with? You can see the guy filming it if you look down.

Jesus, that plane could've easily crashed into the traffic. Glad to see everyone was ok though.
Shit, that was way lower than I expected.
The guy in the video posted in the comments section of a photography blog about it:
[quote=mekki]Ha, that was me. People stand there all the time and that area was just a public road. This was the third attempt by this pilot and it was not a commercial plane by any means. Yes, poor judgement on my part, but great pic:

It hit my trigger finger. There's was a black mark on it. Ha! In all fairness -- they don't come nearly that close most of the times. This person was just on his third landing attempt and therefore I take it unskilled.[/quote]

I was just about to say he probably got a kickass picture out of it
This is the same runway

One of the most dangerous airports in the world, actually, because of the approach and how short the runway is
If you remember Merril C Meigs from flight simulator, this runway is almost 2,000 feet shorter than that.
Juancho E. Yrausquin airport in Saba (south of St. Martin) is short as fuck too.
Went straight over that helmeted cyclist's head too, but they didn't seem to be phased by it.
The propeller and landing gear got way too close for comfort
"DAMN TOURISTS"
*Lowers altitude*
stupidest fucking runway on earth

Kai Tak was a shitty airport too. 747's had to dodge buildings during final.

Try "this is the only place we can currently build one, and we need one"
I do like a close call, thanks for sharing

One of the reasons why its no longer in operation.
Paro is also a considerably bad airport and i think that handles small jet airliners.

My only thought now is how and why do both cameras seem to rotate independently from each other in the video if they're built into the same case??

Somehow the stitching seems to have fucked up, no idea how.
The lenses are fixed.

There is nothing wrong with the perspective, that landing gear is actually touching his finger and hair.
Holy shit.
Moped driver at 5 seconds also ducks.
Jesus that looks terrifying for everyone involved.
I love how the lady just laughs it off, trying not to think of the fact that the guy almost became a part of the runway.
