The airplane landed hard and porpoised down the runway. During the landing, the pilot began his flare 1/3 of the way down the runway. The airplane's approach speed was slightly high and the flare was longer than the pilot expected. When he was halfway down the runway, he further raised the airplane's nose to land. The pilot realized that he was too high for a normal touchdown and was also slow. The airplane landed hard and bounced three times before the nose wheel collapsed.
Probable Cause: the pilot's misjudged flare and improper recovery from a bounced landing, which resulted in a pilot induced porpoise/oscillation.
