If you've got to that stage, you wouldn't carry out a go-around. Accept the crash landing.

PS, Would you give the guy a break? He's not saying he knows everything. He's just trying to ascertain whether he knows enough to be able to land it in an emergency. He's an enthusiast. We were all enthusiasts before we became pilots. We're not gods. We know how much we know, and we know enough to see where the gaps in our knowledge are. Teropa doesn't know enough from FS to know where the gaps are - that's not his fault.
