Yes the MD11 lands hot and heavy.

But I'll worry about running off the end of the runway when that actually happens to somebody.
Happened to WOA a couple of times to my knowledge. Once in EZE, lucky the ground was hard, and more recently they were the first to try out the arrestor bed at the end of a runway at JFK. Do not remember if they were pax or freighters.
