Don't get too excited about toe-in landings. I don't know how many I have to date, but it is a considerable amount. Doing it with properly trained people and follow procedure, have good situational awareness and not stretch the limit as in the other thread discussing the Mont Blanc rescue, is key.
The whole appearance and lack of airmanship you see in this videoclip, and if the news reporting is semi accurate, tell me more than enough...... Thankfully it seems that nobody got hurt!

On a general note, be vary of rich/semi-rich/selfmade individuals that is successful in sports or business, that suddenly spend some of their money on things that can fall out of the sky if not handled properly.....
