That was scary as hell. Would not have wanted to be on that plane.

Notice how slow he taxied in. That gave the flight crew enuff time to get a fresh pair of fruit of the loom out from their bags so when they walked off the plane no one knew they crapped themselves.

Old man luck was with them that day.

It may have also been to cool the brakes down before bringing it into the gate. I can't believe he kept it on the runway.

He probably got a medal for bravery in the face of extreme poor judgment and incompetence.
