High winds at Schipol. What a landing!

Not at all qualified for heavies but I still fell that at some point the wingtip was way to close to the ground for comfort. Yes camera angle can be deceiving but I guess everyone would agree that there was very little margin for error or unexpected wind gusts... In my book safe aircraft operations is all about minimizing risks: unless they were critically low on fuel they should have gone around, even if it was for the second time.
Just my 2c obviously
