Aviophage This thread is a load of cock and bull I'm afraid. I smell b/s from the OP.
Ohhh the irony........

Anyway, from a (currently) SLF perspective, I have experienced a confirmed 3.15g bounce followed by a 2.75g second touchdown - it was hard. Very, very hard indeed. Quite unlike anything else in the world, and difficult to describe. I was looking out of the window at the moment of touchdown, and you could really tell that the VS was much higher than usual. For a split second, you expect the aircraft to disintegrate underneath you with the real loud bang that accompanies it. I actually thought we had crashed (again, for a second or two) and it is not something I'd like to experience again if I'm honest.
