I would disagree. Glide Landing an A320 on water is likely substantially more challenging than doing a powered landing with A-10 wheels up on a runway.
Neither landing is especially difficult - but both have major pucker factor - with only one shot to get it right......
Personally - I would opt for the river landing. Drowning sounds less painful than burning alive...
