The fake-or-not battle is really raging on this one all over the internet. I’m leaning heavily towards hoax. Just doesn’t look right to me.
The jerkycam crappiness of the camerawork is a dead giveaway:
Deliberately pointing the camera at the ground so they can transition to the fake CGI wing that suddenly shows an extra black square on the right wing.
These people need to be kneecapped for wasting my time.
