Hey, good job; you stalled it in!

I hear those low-wing planes are very nice to fly.

Well, I didn't stall it in -- but the runway was absolutely ice-covered. It
was a real "no-brake landing", for sure!

Ah, you're right, I mistook the landing bump for a bigger drop. Still,
icy no-brake landings are something I know *I've* never tried.

One would think that with a slick runway the.. uhm..."plant"...

Actually it seemed fairly nice to me. Camcorders tend to greatly exaggerate
landing impacts in my experience.

Is it the camcorders...or the angle that the video is shot from? A low angle
would emphasize any "bounce".(?)

....and load "Landing.mov", fourth down on the right. Notice the hard hit on
the right main.

Not when they're mounted on a tripod and have image stabilization...

See http://tknowlogy.com/TknoFlyer/Flights.asp#031115 (Landing HGR) for an
example.
