This and the earlier other ridiculous suggestion above that the crew didn't bother to go around because the pilot didn't want to miss out on his nasi goreng is bordering on the insanely ridiculous things I've ever read on pprune.
May be the most ridiculous thing you have read on pprune but as things go in this part of the world that is only mildly silly.

Ask the pilots that run into mountains in IMC flying a published route but not at or above LSALT?

The controller who simply forgot about a large hill and turned a DC 10 into it whilst he was vectoring them to the approach?

The loading crew who thought it was totally acceptable to smoke whilst unloading 44 gallon drums of gasoline from a BAe 146?

I think those are more suited to your "insanely ridiculous things" quote
