Wow, the g-forces at the back of the plane must have been very uncomfortable.

I'm no pilot, but it seems as though the left rudder was held for too long as the rear wheels touched down, resulting in the excessive yaw.

I've seen quite a few good crosswind videos from DUS. It was my primary airport for over a year, but sadly I never experienced anything particularly exciting
