A video is going viral on social media that shows two planes landing and taking off from the same runway in a gap of just a few seconds. The 52-second long video was shared by a Twitter user named CCTV IDIOTS and has already garnered over half a million views. In the video, a plane can be seen taking off from a runway at unknown location seconds before another plane lands on the same tarmac. 

Video prompts quick reactions

Many people took to the video and called out the air traffic controllers for their negligence. However, few users pointed out that the footage is from an air show and its just part of the scenario. One user wrote that the sharp right bank done by the A350 gave it away that it was an air show. Some users also commented that the video is not original and it was edited before being shared on social media.
