It depends how comfortable you get in the seat. When i first started flying commercially, there was no way i could do half of what they are doing in the videos, thank goodness there was a captain besides me who more seat time. Now, it happens alot, and i can handle most situations like that. Of course not at the exteremes of the videos, but we do have some very windy/ crosswind days we encounter in everyday line flying. Most days like that are extremely gusty, and not a steady wind, which makes it a very wild ride on final. We have had several flights where people have clapped loudly and yelled cheers after we rolled out, and just about every one of them makes sure and tells us 'thank you' when they deplane!
