Didn't notice anything close about that, looked like a normal TNCM landing...I have seen closer..

Wasn't anything spectacular about that on in comparison to other landing videos posted from there. May be a different feeling being there in person
This is an established approach with a 3 degree letdown. It is not unusual at many airports to be close to whatever preceeds the touchdown point. I have flown into the Bahamas and one approach is over a beach like that. So is the flight into manilla, -so no biggie-it just seems low to the idiots standing there.
I am pretty sure I heard the B-747 pilot blow his horn, a couple of times, to warn the people ;-)
