Oh Lufthansa (part ?)

Was the cabin door closed? I can't see it so I guess this was right after arrival? And yes, I admit, I didn't read anything about it, just watched the video.
 
I suppose most 787 operators just told all their rampers to start pinning nose gear until they hear a reason why.

What on earth would cause this to happen? Sheesh Boeing.

There was reporting about another similar event that involved a maintenance action involving a gear pin causing the gear to retract.

I’m not familiar with the 787 gear, but sounds like some sort of patellar reflex.

I saw a photo of an AD(?) that had like a 3 year compliance window about the pinning hole in the NLG. apparently there is a quite similar sized hole that the pin can fit in and it is easily mistaken. not saying that was the cause but certainly would seem like the nose retracted
