   Yes I think its fair to say that that counts as a near miss! 
I wonder who realised that was developing first, the pilot of the incoming aircraft or those in the tower. Either way someone's quick actions prevented the potential death of a few hundred people there.

I sense a plot now for a remake of Final Destination 5

I can just imagine what the pilots in the landing aircraft were saying as this was unfolding before their eyes.  They were extremely lucky that they had the wiggle room to abort the landing.  I do wonder if the pilots of the aircraft on the ground were on their cell phones.  One would think that they would be looking out of the windows for just such an occurrence, although the angle of the approaching aircraft may have been such that they couldn't see it.  More than likely it was bad communications between controllers and aircraft crew.

Nice runway incursion - someone obviously wasn't concentrating!
