The two videos show explicitly what should occur when entering the water, as long as no major electrical components acquire any moisture. I would imagine the landing gear contain all water proof parts, and all wiring is run elsewhere instead of within the bottom of the craft.

I think the second video likely violated standard operating protocols. ;-)

actually, most of modern electronics can easily be submerged
