Within the hour of US Air 1549 landing on the Hudson, there was confirmation that everyone had gotten out safely and grainy video emerged of the flight flying low, but no video of the actual landing. But it's New York and there's a security camera every half block so you figured some video of the landing would emerge and here it is. Apparently several security cameras caught the landing and the early moments of passengers escaping to the wings. A separate Coast Guard camera on the New Jersey side of the river also caught the very end of the landing but on this video - even though the quality isn't great - you really get to see just how smoothly the pilot set the plane down. Unbelieveable footage.



Comments: Pretty decent video of a great story

If you're a parent, you might find yourself asking, What are my kids watching? Well, this week the answer is juvenile, infantile, and hysterical. Jizz in my Pants? Good guess, but that was last week. This time it's a commercial. The story goes that this is a real infomercial that aired in the mid-90s. The first person to post it on YouTube claims it was taped on his VCR and the quality and old-school-style date/time does seem to support that theory. But is the Wunder Boner real? All of our research seems to say yes. And is that really Mike Rowe, host of Dirty Jobs, doing the voiceover? All signs point to yes on that one too - after all, Mike Rowe used to do sales for QVC. A classic for sure and the best line of the video by far is: "My wife would like that!"
