I realize there is an airport behind them, but I don't think I could stand there like the cameraman did, with a plane flying no more than 100 ft over my head.

There was a program on the History Channel not long ago "The 10 Most Dangerous Airports in the World" and i believe that one was in the top five on the list.

It appears that many on that little beach gets a thrill out of those landings!

I wonder how much that costs. I don't know who would pay to potentially have a jet airliner annihilate them, and their little house.

Insane. I thought the original pic was shopped.

That gave me a rush just watching the video. It is sort of like that when you fly into Toronto's smaller Airport because it is on an island. Coming down looks like you are going to land on water, then all of a sudden the tarmac appears

That's terrifying.
