This is not new, or "never before seen." It came out a couple years ago, and is highly controversial. The thing that makes it especially suspect is one of the alleged "bystanders" identifies the aircraft as "United Airlines." How would that be something someone on the ground would see, and be the first thing they say such that it is recorded? In the moment of witnessing something like that, that would be a very odd thing to say.
The fact that it was "delayed" several years, coupled with the odd commentary, makes it appear as a tool of propaganda.
With regards to identifying it from the ground. 1. It was not that high up. 2. Airlines paint all their own planes in similar fashion, making them easily identifiable at a distance.
I'm trying to recall the "story" about the provenance of this alleged footage. I think it was on a VHS tape that had been left in the recorder in someone's closet? My memory's fuzzy, but when it was posted on GAW a couple years ago, I remember that everyone found it suspicious.
supposedly he uploaded it to youtube, but accidentally left it private and didn't realize that for years.....I just read that somewhere....there is other footage from roughly that angle.

It was left without comment...
