Link to the Everyday Astronaut stream (he gets a little loud).
They almost stuck their flip maneuver to land at the end but looks like they lost one engine on the way up and another right at the end for an unscheduled rapid disassembly but still they got impressively close to sticking the landing. Very cool.
