Flying is all energy management - most students mess this bit up and will fly an approach with too much airspeed. They overshoot or try and force the aircraft down onto the runway when it still has sufficient airspeed to remain airborne.

This is why I am suspicious of this video. For someone with apparently no experience, this looks like a stable approach flown at the correct speeds. If it was a C152 maybe, but a Caravan, different story,
