Optical illusion or real close call | 2 planes narrowly escape collision in US

Imagine a situation where two stubborn friends make a bet, and one finally gives in. This scenario resembles the footage of two planes that narrowly escaped a collision in the sky over Syracuse, New York. A dispatcher mistakenly allowed a takeoff on the same runway where another plane was supposed to land. Fortunately, one pilot managed to reorient the jet in time.
