Found a video with an interesting perspective of the landing.

I see that SpaceX is preparing to reuse the first falcon9 to successfully land on a barge (drone ship) next month. It will be used to launch SES 10, a telecom satellite. Would love to have been a fly on the wall for that discussion with the insurance co.
