In the 33 years I have been paid to watch landing and take off I have seen a lot worse!! Did well in the conditions it is a B767 getting tossed around out there!!
That really was not all that great. Very hard touchdown, although the 767's unforgiving landing gear design made it a lot worse than it should have been.
Tough conditions but that pilot was making it worse with significant PIO.
Wonder if those huge winglets are a help or hindrance in those winds.

An even more impressive DC9 cracking happened with passengers in Granada.
I know someone who ended up unexpectedly sitting in his seat on the grass.
