[Pavel]

It's unbelievable. I'm deeply shocked.

I'm totally agree with comment that "the pilot's got balls big as dumptrucks. "

Now this was somesn' that most of us could learn from. And those surviving the lesson probably would tell that they enjoyed it...!
Thanx Pavel!

I think it is not real wen he landing it looks like fake, now in youtube possible to find many clips with some special effects for example -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_OtbXmu9kg

The fuselage of the one-winged plane after rollout shows that this is a regularly performed stunt. The separation of the "broken-off" wing is also so clear that the pins are pulled from the spar-attach points by the pilot.
All this does not take from the value of the flying skill. (maybe the surprise-factor, which is frequently exploited by airshows is faked.)
It is a well-rehearsed act, finely executed.
