Yeah runway issues and incidents have been familiar since Harry the Cap put his cap on but forgot to take his 'Commutator' ..... almost sounds 'Terminator' material.
You notice the distance , makes it more dramatic than it actually is ... good example ... check the runway level ... long range cameras/video can blow things out of proportion.

The long range shot at the end of that clip is an old article. Was already hashed to death at the time about zoom affecting how it appears. The issue in the article tho was having to reject a takeoff because Caribbean just rolls across the runway during someones takeoff roll
