He cut the engines on approach and cranked them so they would be horizontal so the propellers wouldn't hit the ground....not for safety reasons, but for money savings, as a clipped prop means that whole engine would need to be pulled out and swapped.

Nice view though.

Nice landing

Doesn't look like all that cranking really helped though...
