From my perspective, this 340-600 didn't look anywhere near the 50' threshold crossing height that is normal for landing. In fact, it appears in the video that they knew they were low and were in the process of reducing their descent rate. It can happen to anyone, even very experienced pilots and thankfully this one didn't amount to anything other than a vey interesting video.
