I have filmed a few thousand crosswind landings at several airports in Europe within the past years, but this Airbus A380 crosswind landing was extremly dangerous and extraordinary. At first it looked like a pretty normal crosswind approach but after touchdown the pilots tried to align with the runway which almost ended in a runway excursion. I have never seen such a tremendous reaction of an airplane after a touchdown. You can see that the pilots tried to align with the runway by using the tail rudder and luckily it worked out.
