- saalweachter 4y agoWithout re-watching the video in question, wasn't Carlin's complaint about a "near miss"? A "near collision" is everything he asked for.
- blackshaw 4y ago.... damn, you're right.
- moloch-hai 4y agoYeah, he's wrong. Was it any kind of collision? No, it wasn't. There was no collision of any kind. Was it any kind of miss? Yes, it was a miss. What kind? A near one.
