A Canadair CL-215T sudden stops into the water at an airshow in Barcelona. It looks if he was going to crash, but it's only a simulated emergency stop by using its reversals.

Seaplane Sudden Stop: Almost Crashes?

Amazing?
What is so amazing about this? The plane didn't almost crash and there was no sudden stop. These planes are designed and built to do this. The plane did as expected.

- Although doing as expected...
  ...it surprised all spectators in that airshow. Water spoof still spectacular, of course it did not almost crash, but apparently it looks like that. :)
  
  Maybe you see landings like that every day, but people don't.

Awesome stopping power!
For a large plane to stop that quickly, it is amazing. Great movie, thanks.

- Withstanding turbulent air is one thing
  But the kind of sudden movenment we see here must put alot of stress on the plane. I don't think this is how it's meant to go.

- Is reverse thrust.
  Is not too much stress...... turbulent can do more harm....... :>
