Lorkel news showed a longer version of this clip. The longer version showed him nailing it onto the LBA down slope, which just comes into view at the end of the shorter clip. Incidentally the clip was sped up slightly on TV and (I think) so is this, a stupid thing to do!

You can see exactly this view for yourself, if you go and stand in the graveyard at the end of rwy 14. It's only when you see it from the graveyard, that you realise how startling the slope really is!
