In fairness to the pilot, it looks like the runway slopes sharply up then a long downward slope starting just after the touchdown point.

So the aircraft didn't bounce as much as the runway projected it up again - a bit like the ramp on the end of an aircraft carrier.

Of course, it could just be the camera angle.
