It's weird to hear how calm he is during the whole ordeal


People that lose there cool under stress usually don't make it through the early stages of training to be a pilot. The are a lot of cockpit recordings available of pilots in situations that have the potential to end badly and most did, in all of them the pilots maintained a calm professional demeanor.

This is audio from United Crash in Iowa some years ago.
