Originally believed to be too big to land on the tiny 1,850 metre runway, the empty South African aircraft slammed on its breaks as soon it touched down.
Aw c'mon, B737's (usually full of passengers) land on similar - and shorter - runways all the time. Unlike the example in this video, they usually touch down in the correct zone.
