Your plane pulled up and climbed away during landing because the pilots performed a go-around — a normal, safe, fully trained manoeuvre, not an emergency.

Airplane windows have rounded corners instead of square ones because sharp corners concentrate stress. A pressurised cabin inflates and deflates on every flight, and at a sharp corner that repeated fatigue stress peaks dangerously.
