"It is even cooler to see a B-52 land in a strong crosswind. To see the landing gear pointing down the runway and the airframe twisted at an angle is just mind bending. "

Good video showing the landing gears (trucks, they're called in the AF) crabbing.
There's a crab controller system and indicator in the cockpit of those B-52s.
