The video events are too diverse and moving too fast to keep up with the narration. We are left to accept what the narrator is saying happens.
There is emphasis on the "plastic" windows, which are irrelevant to events. The shatter pattern is typical of safety glass, which is two panes of glass sandwiched with a plastic middle layer. The purpose is to retain any fragments of shattered glass, so there are no stray pieces or shards. It also means that the pane is removable as a single piece. This has long been the standard for automobile windshields and windows. The crowd had been working for some time previous to account for the windows' shattered condition.
The narrator is amazed that a nose bleed can happen suddenly. That is how all my nose bleeds begin---suddenly. Being shot in the neck can easily result in perforation through the main arteries and esophagus, resulting in blood pooling in the mouth or the sinuses since she was in a supine position.
Babbit being semi-motionless or expressionless during shock is entirely expectable.
The utter confusion of the police suggests they were unprepared and untrained for this kind of emergency. Missteps are common in the midst of confusion. I had the overwhelming impression that this was not professional-grade performance. In a real event of this kind, the response should have been to take control of he scene, get everyone's attention, clear the immediate area, and the stairwell, and not be gentle about it, as every second would be life draining away. I have a hard time understanding how police could be injected into a crowd and have no loud-hailing capability. Shouting never cuts through jabber.
As for fake blood implements or coordinated hand gestures, those are all the interpretations of the narrator, coaxing you to see what he wants you to see. A Rorschach blot reading is not "evidence" or "proof."
People get too wrapped up in a false dichotomy: "It was all real" or "It was all fake." What looks more plausible to me is that it was a scripted event that went off-script. I am beginning to suspect that officer Byrd was supposed to shoot over Babbitt's head, but had poor aim. There is nothing in the record of events to suggest that Byrd was a marksman. The confusion and hesitation following would be consistent with the swordfight of the play going fatal, yet the play had to go on. Their delay and hesitation probably cost Babbitt her life. If this was how the scenario played out, the complexities of liability for Byrd and the play directors become more apparent. They would all be complicit in negligent or attempted homicide, and obstruction of justice. I'm not very surprised that Byrd is asking for more money. This is probably far more than he signed up for. And the Metropolitan Police have much to obfuscate and conceal.
How do you explain the horrible actors at the end trying to stir up drama? This is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE ACTING. This is not how any real person would be acting, and there are multiple horrible actors.
These are undoubtedly paid agitators and they are agitating. Most of them are oblivious to the crisis and are getting screen time, or playing for each other. The whole J6 scenario was street theater.
