FWIW, I was once on a CO 737 landing at EWR. We were headed for rwy 4R when at an altitude of a few hundred feet seconds from landing when we swung left and then right in one quick motion and landed on rwy 4L. It was pretty smoothly done and done too quickly to cause any sort of panic. Nobody else seemed to notice! After pulling to the gate I asked the pilot what had happened. He said he was going to the control tower to find out. He was not happy.
