After seeing a picture of the approach end of the runway, maybe he was trying a little too hard to touch down on the numbers...??

At this point in the information available this was pure cowboy.

Two hotshots went VFR in an an amateurish attempt to touch down on the runway threshold. If the aircraft's equipment is found faultless, these two cowboys should be stripped of their airman's certificates and criminally prosecuted, followed by a civil suit to recover all the assets they possess.

Nah...touchdown zone’s about 500 feet past the threshold.
