If you can look out the side window of a plane a see the runway coming straight at you, something is not going right. That's what happened to a Ryanair flight in 70 MPH cross winds.

This plane is landing at Bristol Airport in England in what are clearly less than ideal conditions. As it comes in, it goes rather sideways. Like Ken Block Gymkhana sideways. Except it isn't connected to the ground. It's in the air.

If this went wrong, it would have gone really wrong. This is right up there with the scariest airplane landings of all time.

Thankfully, it lands safely, which means that the number of passengers who shat their pants was probably far less than it could have been if something had gone very wrong.

Still, this is terrifying.
