Worth noting that the Airbus A319/A320/A321 airframe series experienced a high number of nose gear failures of various types (67 or more recorded), although most (thankfully) didn't turn out as serious as the one above.
It's wonderfull that these folks didn't have something bad happen. I'm not so sure there was any pilot skill though. I saw it on the news. It looked more like a put the plane down and hope for the best kind of thing. It's nice that the pilot didn't panic I guess.
