That was pretty wild! This is one of my favorite bad landing videos.

I don't know. This one is pretty spiffy.

I have a scoring method for grading landings
Was the touchdown on centerline? +10 points if yes, -5 if no, -20 if you missed the runway completely
Did you miss a taxiway? +10 if no, -5 if yes, -20 if the next available taxiway had a signal light
Is the aircraft reusable? +20 if immediately, -5 if the ELT needs to be checked, -20 if the aircraft is not immediately reusable, -50 if it will never be used again
Did you, any passenger, and/or instructor have an unexpected bowl movement? +10 if no, -20 if instructor evacuated bowels, -10 for each additional bowel movement
Was the touchdown within the first 3rd of the rwy? +10 if yes, 0 if in 2/3, -10 in final 3rd of runway.
Towers reaction? +10 if none, -5 for audible laughter, -10 for a "beauty of spring steel" comment, -50 for emergency team summoned
Did the tires squeal? +10 if a soft chirp, -5 for >5 chirps, -10 "like a banshee", -20 for each tire popped
Was wind a factor? +20 if no, +10 if "it made it interesting", -10 for >20 kt xwind, -30 for "must've been a huge gust during my flare"
Was an emergency declared? If yes, disregard all previous points and add 1,000

My understanding is that the airplane was later written off.
ETA: Apparently this isn't the first time, as this article is for a different incident.

the BAE146 is a tough aircraft.

I heard my instructor saying, "power, Power, POWER, POWER" all the way through that one.

Am I the only one that finds it depressing that almost every one of these videos is Pilot Induced Oscillation? (Which is really preventable!!! Arrrrggg!!! 
)
Edit: I've seen the London City Bae146 video before. EGLC has always struck me as a pretty hairy airport to operate out of to begin with, with a 4327x100 ft runway (1311x30m) and a ridiculous 7.5 degree glideslope for noise abatement. You can see they're coming in fast with speedbrakes deployed, with a high crosswind, and hit windshear. Sucks... and all the youtube comments say "ZOMG he should go back to flight school!" etc...

Ahh! This is how I change this!
It probably is, but the the airplane in that video actually was down for a while after the landing while they repaired the damage.

"Landing" would be an overstatement.
Yup. That was an arrival.

I like how the FO called a go around and the CA ignored it. You should automatically be fired for ignoring a go around call...whether it is warranted or not. Stupid...

I can't find the video I have in mind, but maybe someone here knows how to find it. It was shot by a passenger sitting on the right side of a Swiss Avro landing in ZRH. The plane hits the ground so hard it bounces maybe 40-50 feet back into the air after the camera thrashes around, then they gun it for a go-around. Very crazy video, seems to have been taken down.
