" UNSTABILISED " Go Around

Most of the landings in the video were highly unstabilised and yet the crew continued! Wow, looks like the myth about first world pilots being superior skygods with superior handling skills IS DEFINITELY BUSTED!

I would have thought those smart arse co-pilots would have taken over controls from their superior captains and gone around. Were they waiting for the PF to do cartwheels before hitting the TOGA buttons or slam the throttles to the Go Around detent?
