I just found some footage on the same site (poor quality) which shows a DC-9 (?) landing so hard that even though the undercarriage holds up, the whole fuselage flexes violently and the tail section breaks off! I've never seen any thing like it: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/716035/how_not_to_land/ Elmo |

That was part of certification testing (i.e. no pax on board!!!)
They may want to beef up the tail assembly if that was flown by the correct certification profile...
