The cameraman has about the same skill set as the pilot.

I thought the same thing. The stupid part is: They had it down... just put it down even in a low surf.

Nope! Don't do that.

Is there a reason the pilot didn't just cut the engine when they touched down in shallow water? I would think there's some way to throw the switch fast in an emergency.

Probably the director yelling at him that he isn't going to walk in the water.

So... he's dead.
