Seems fake, but maybe just because it was a test landing because normally it takes them WAY longer to come to a stop. Almost seems like a model airplane.
This does remind me of a short book I read a few years ago that went into the details about how many test flights you have to pass flawlessly before you're allowed to land the shuttle. I think it was something like a thousand test landings without any errors before you got to land the real thing.
