The separation requirement for flying parallel and simultaneous approaches is 225 meters (738 feet). These two aircraft are at a safe distance for the approaches they
are each flying.
Due to the Lufthansa 747 being three times larger than the 757 plane and being slightly behind , gives us this incredible optical illusion.

they're clearly not paralel and this is not 225 meters. And I bet they won't allow such landing at once. If an accident happens, it would be biggest in history in casaulties and none airstrip want that tag.
