What annoys me about this video is the intro written by the poster of the video. Basically saying it happened because of not having 21st century equipment but relying on dayglo panels. Dayglo panels are simple and unjambable.....

It was a screw up, as happens. Would it have not happened had they been in radio contact?

The comments then written by youtube users are embarrassing to me a Brit.
