Bumpy landings not all that uncommon, according to YouTube plane spotters

A few minutes after midnight, a Boeing 737 skidded off the runway at Port Columbus Airport in Ohio. None of the 130 passengers were hurt. The plane is fine too.

Port Columbus International is a busy airport, but bad Port Columbus Airportweather is causing a dizzying array of cancellations today.

Cleveland Hopkins International Airport is open but also reporting massive delays and cancellations as well. Continental uses Cleveland as a hub and airport spokesman, Todd Payne told the Associated Press, "I would imagine, based on Continental's figures, we'll probably cancel about 50 flights today."

We've covered a few bumpy landing stories in the past few weeks. The Lufthansa landing in Germany caught by a plane spotter on the ground, and Matt Cawby's video of the hot-dogging stunt that cost the pilot his job.

But bumpy landings are a lot more common than you think. We've gathered a few videos from Youtube that will make you glad you didn't have a window seat during these flights. Enjoy!
