This guy may have been just a little too eager to hit the beach... Oh well, there could be worse places to do this I suppose.

Ah yes...the, I did it on Flite Sim, so I can do it in real life, long-landing at St. Bart's. Du-mass!
dumbass! I hope he was having a very bad emergency that made a go around impossible...if not, see my first comment!
The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".
what an idiot. if i float more then 2/3 of a runway i'm going around. hope his insurance refused to cover the damages.
it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
Forget 2/3 if your not down in the first third of the runway at a place like that it is time to slam them forward. Got to love the camera guys reaction. "That kind of.........blows"
I made the call behind the stall, I'm going in for guns-Dos Gringo
here is another landing there
Oops , maybe he figured he had it ?
Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.
Watching this landing made my day. I thought this was the runway at St. Maarten in the Netherlands Antilles. Is this runway at St. Bars?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
Well, not exactly free, since the extra time is costing you more $$, but it sure as heck isn't nearly as much as the damage to the plane from running off the end!Never forget go-arounds are free...
