I saw a similar thing happen in the Navy in the `70s. An A6 had a very hard
landing on the USS Kitty Hawk. It caught the wire at too high attitude and
slammed onto the deck forcing the front landing gear strut into the cockpit.
Thankfully the crew were not injured but I bet they had to change clothes after
that one.

Does nobody notice the ooops-scene in the left??

I have to admit that because of the caption I was focused on the gear at first
but soon caught on.

This one happened while stationary. The tug started towing without the signal
to release brake.
