While attempting to land, an Airbus A320 drops to a low point of about 60 feet, coming a hair’s breadth from clipping the 55-foot-tall vertical stabilizer of a massive A340 waiting to depart. The crash that almost happened "probably came close to the greatest aviation disaster in history," as five airplanes and potentially over 1,000 passengers were at imminent risk.
