I see a number of pilots here who already think it's safe to do. People
who
think that way will only be encouraged by the video.


Not necessarily. And I don't say that it is a safe thing to do.

As you correctly pointed out in another thread - if there's a flat spot in
front of you, then try for that.

At many many airports you don't have that luxury because of rough
vegetation, industrial & residential built up areas.
Turning back is sometimes the only choice that will give you and others the
best opportunity to survive.
