It really bothers me when people do the "Monday morning quarterbacking" after an accident, or incident, I have 0 tolerance for that...But nobody got hurt or violated on this one, so I'll answer Dynasty's question.
Personally, I'd go around or call a go around (if the NFP) when things started to get interesting there in ground effect.. I disagree with Rickair7777's coment about "being OK on the approach". That approach looked very unstable to me, at one point he was at a 45 angle over the runway.
But then again, here, confortable, drinking a cup of starbucks, I'm thinking clearly... Flying the airplane, in the heat of battle, well that's another story.
