Good Lord!

Take a look at this photo of a pair of Cubs on their website.

Thats not an unusual bush pilot technique for short field landing. You
skim the water on the mains (the water is as hard as a rock when your
moving) and time your roll out so you hit the beach at the right time.
You can land on a beach with less than 100 feet of runway doing this.
