Job Well done to my Russian neighbors.
With regards to Airbus sturdiness I have to say I am impressed.
Crossing that drainage ditch could have split some other aircraft on the market !

Congratulations again

Cant help thinking the massive corn first cushioned the touchdown (" Corn effect + Ground effect").
Then made for a rapid deceleration , as the ground run is less then 500 meters.
