How realistic is the Airplane Crash Scene from Breaking Bad?

In case you might not know it (spoiler):

​

Because of stress and lack of concentration a single Air Traffic Controller causes two Airplanes to collide mid-Air.

Hi Mark, thank you for taking the Time!

Honestly I don't know you, but there is one topic I'm always interested in reading personal experiences about from former Players. In 2018 I listened/read from two german Players Per Mertesacker and Ralph Gunesch about the pressure of being a professional Player.

Mertesacker, who played for Germany in the world cup 2006 said, after losing to Italy he kind of feeled reliefed, because the Tournament was over.

His comment blew up a little, because some fans thought he didn't actually want to win the world cup.

As a result of that "shitstorm" Ralph Gunesch told a Story about being traded to FC Ingolstadt to help them stay in the League mid-Season. After they won the deciding game to not get relegated he couldn't enjoy the Moment. All the Pressure over the last weeks had build up, so he just sat in the locker room and stared at the wall for some time.

​

Long Storys short: What are your personal experiences with pressure in professional football. Did you ever have critical Times when you just wanted to quit and never look back? What would be a good advice you'd give young players today?

Sorry if this gets too personal ;)
