This video of a plane caught in crosswinds is unsettling

Maybe don't watch this video if you're getting on a plane anytime soon.

Youtuber 'flugsnug' filmed this clip at Birmingham International Airport showing an Airbus A321 coming in to land.

Thanks to strong gusts on the runway buffeting it around, it's unsuccessful and has to come in for a second attempt.

And after a bit of wavering, successfully lands.

Kinda looks like a toy plane, doesn't it?

While it might look unnerving, it is apparently a common occurrence and, as the First Officer on board put it, it's just "another day at the office".
