how in the hell can the body stand that kind of force?

It's called kinetic friction. The force is dependent on the weight of the plane, landing speed and coefficient of kinetic friction of the landing medium (in this case the runway). This force is parallel along the belly of the plane and it's a tensile force which the alumimum frame can absorb.

Hey I actually understood that. Either way if we had the numbers or guessed them and calculated it like in physics I still don't see how such a force can get spread around that mass.

I love when Pavy talks smart.

Matty remember when we were having burgers and we were mesmerized by his explanations?
