They seemed pretty calm. I wonder if this was shot as a training video?

Having a hard time believing that a "regular person" could remain that calm and film an emergency landing like that.

Guys.....

Read the description of the video on youtube.

Quote:
Charles W. Baker Airport
USA January , 2007

From Paul Wingo:

"There was a snow storm approaching in about an hour and we were doing a check ride. Because of possible ice, we had been flying with the gear down the entire time. We started doing touch and goes after a while. Habit when you take off is to raise the gear. This is what happened. So, when we come around, they were conversing and what not and simply forgot the gear was up. The prop got bent up pretty bad along with the belly of the plane."
