Wonder if that created a tsunami in nearby lake Winnabego?
BTW, I had one like that once, well it was actually the FO's landing but it was still my responsibility. Still can't believe the oxygen masks didn't fall out of their little storage units in the overhead. Then came having to write the aircraft up for a hard landing which took it out of service for the rest of the day. Followed by the "carpet dance" in the Chief Pilot's office.
Good Times!

First time I watched this... reminds me of the crosswind landings a B-52 could do, only difference is that the landing gear would pivot and allow the plane to stay crabbed...
