It's funny reading back some back and forth from when the video was released. Me and few others got VERY close from watching the videos. I was off by 0.4 seconds on TCH and almost bang on with the sink rate. And the other guys were telling me you can't say anything based on videos alone and "there was clearly a flare" and "this landing didn't look that hard" and "maybe it was irrecoverable windshear" and other clearly impossible scenarios.
I still believe my own eyes when I watch a video.
