I like the way the guys are cheering when the plane hits the snow bank... reminds me of the crowd that gathers at the "Nordschleife" of the "Nürburgring" on Saturday afternoons when ordinary people are allowed to smash their family cars into the guard rails (YouTube is full of relevant videos, there even exists a full length movie that played in cinemas some years ago).
Isn't there a requirement for special training at Courchevel? Where they teach you that landing long and fast is no good there? Luckily no serious injuries in this case other than to the unfortunate aeroplane.
