Nice job by the pilot. I'm sure he could have also just glided down and made a water landing, but perhaps with the chute there is less error factor involved (stall/spinning too high off the water, misjudged speed, possibly flipping over upon touchdown..etc..)..

Interesting. The original link was not a subscriber link. Weird.
