He said he uploaded it on YouTube way back and just unprivated it, but if he did it would still have the original upload date in the description not 5 days ago.
The first video uploaded to Youtube was in late 2005 I think so there no way he uploaded it in 2001. I mean heck in 2001 you couldn't just upload videos like we do today, there was no just free platforms to upload videos and stream then back then. You had to download everything you watched.
This is true but the MiniDV format (also a cassette format) provided spectacular image quality for the time. It's not HD but it's damn near close depending on the camera - which could run in the multiple thousands of dollars. It was a format that was in use and is still used today by professionals. Brand new cameras are nearly impossible to find today but production houses in Hollywood rent them as well as higher end camera stores.
This footage was either a pro camera or an off the shelf MiniDV. Something is definitely up with this footage being almost too "clean" meaning, it feels like the person recording it was intentionally panning all over the place - trying to look like an amateur but knowing full well what they were trying to achieve. The dialogue especially has a glow to it.
That means this guy converted this video from casette to digital... so he ignore the fact that any news agency from Alaska to Mexico would pay thousands for his footage in 2001 but then when YouTube comes out in 2005 he finds it so important to upload it that he converted it from tape to digital so he can...
It's like someone else said. Maybe he was expecting a second plane? He had inside military knowledge of what was going to happen. Then thought it would be best to not draw attention to himself releasing the video?
Not really. You could easily upload your MiniDV footage to a PC with an AV cable then edit/cut the footage and save it under various formats to be uploaded to YouTube. This is how I used to upload to YT 15+ years ago..
I just looked that ul online because ive never seen that as a thing and all i see online is that its impossible to change a videos publish date. Like you can still watch unlisted videos if you have a link and it shows the original upload date...
It only changes the first time a video is set to public. You'll see with some youtubers that use patreon they'll have n upload date of like 3/2 but comments going back to like 2/27 because they gave the unlisted link to their patrons and then set it to public on 3/2.
Oh hey that's a good point. I missed that completely since time kinda blurs together these days. And not only that but when then news was frothing and seething for footage from people this guy didn't remember then?
I dont even think you could private list videos back when YouTube started.
If it had been uploaded all them years ago and he reset it to public the date wouldn't say uploaed 5 days ago.
2001 everything was recorded on camcorders.
Digital wasn't very advanced even digital cameras we had at school back then took a floppy disk and we could only get 1 to 5 photos on a disk 😂
Not only that but did you hear that guy yell "It was a 'United' airplane, it just crashed, right into it!" I'm watching that video, from that angle there's no way you could tell what the name on the side of the plane was. Methinks that was dubbed over. I'm guessing this video is fake and will be used to try to debunk whatever info is about to come out about this.
Yeah that video is better quality than the quality of what they have in their News archives. Something stinks.
Where did he upload certianly not YouTube as it wasnt even a thing in 2001

most camcorders were still cassette tape

Yeah, the almost deadpan, "Oh my Lord." raises red flags for me.
Cameraman: It was a united airplane! He flew it right into the building on purpose!"
Great eye to catch the brand of airplane lol
I had a high 8 that wasn't bad
MiniDV is still in use!?! Isn't it all interlaced etc
Correct.
Minidv was 'hd' and even though used little tapes they were digital, not analog.
I had one. The video WAS excellent for the time.
All my home videos back then were great, then when we switched to early smart phones, the video sucked, until it progressively got better.

Thats not suspicious at all.

If you private or unlist a video during the upload process, the upload date resets once it's made public.

He posted it to his geocities page. :)
Nice... completely forgot about Geocities!

Reminds me of the whiterabbitmanifesto, that was also put online ages ago and went completely unnoticed until someone told people about it...
