Absolutely nothing wrong with that landing.

On an absolutely perfect flare, you want your main wheels to touch down on the 1000' markers just by the PAPIs, This guy flares maybe a little bit high but he flies the plane all the way down to a touchdown just after the 1000' markers.

The aircraft touches down roughly at the 8:10 mark. After that, all he's doing is keeping the nosewheel off the ground. I personally don't like doing that but some people do to bleed off energy aerodynamically.

Good landing imho.
