Yeah, and I could see such a thing being staged quite easily.
But on reading your link to the Hoaxkiller video, I think that guy is right. The close-up video is probably a fake.
I’m not as impressed with his flash of light argument—it could have been blocked or angled or something—but what camera would give that monitor-y pixelation on a zoom?
I think so to. The other two seem credible. Could the close-up video have been created to sow doubt?
