The video clearly shows it didn't crash land. It landed without its landing gear down, then exploded, probably from the friction of skidding down the runway. Horrific, but not pilot error, definitely equipment failure.

Oh gosh, that's just awful. I didn't see that in the video.
2 crew members survived I read, and oddly enough, an Air Canada plane in Nova Scotia had a landing gear issue crash last night, too. 🤷

they landed on the final 20% of the runway, landed way too fast, and used no flaps & speed brakes.
i don’t know what the surrounding area of the airport looked like, but may have been safer trying for water/field instead
Horrific design flaw.
