Any white-knuckled flyers out there?

Some amazing moments were captured on video as passenger jets landed in strong cross winds at the Dusseldorf, Germany airport.

Pilots were forced to turn their planes into the crosswind slightly with the nose down and then straighten out at the last moment.

Edited footage in the video player above is sped up two and a half times.

The original footage can be seen below (scroll down):
