In the video in question this tracking band is indeed there but never and not once ! ..does it distort anything beyond the small band itself. Anyone familiar enough with analoge recordings will know instantly what i am talking about i am sure.

Sorry. That simply isnt possible. You can't make something out of nothing. When it comes to video, if you were to "digitize it to 1080p" the result would be BLUR! You simply cant take a video, that at the time would have been shot at 320 x 240 and blow it up to 1080p and expect it to get clearer...just not going to happen.
I am convinced this is a fake. Video at that time was shot at best, 320 x 240. This video is way to resolute to be of that time era.
His statement about 2012 would mean that the world's timeline ends in 2012. If it were the "year of his death" that wouldn't effect his ability to see past 2012. That would imply that the only reason he can see the future is because he actually will live it.
In this case, then, his death would mean nothing. If he were truly a psychic, he could see well past his death.
In his example, he was 10 in 1950, and was able to see the moon landing 19 years later. That means, at a minimum, he can see 19 years in the future.
So, if that be the case, in 1980, he could see to 1999. Right?
But he obviously goes further than that.
Also, I find it ironic that he is accurate, without being specific, on everything he states. How about some inaccuracies? in 1980, we were in a very high state of the cold war. Everyone was thinking, talking, and worried about the USSR pushing the button. Not one mention of Nuclear war, which was the subject of the day. Not a word.
So how is it that everything he predicts is close, yet, he has not one that is so far out of line to make this video more realistic?
It was scripted.
Also in the late 40's and 50's, Buck Rogers and other sci-fi movies were being made about man going to the moon. So, nothing shocking there.
I think the dead give away is the clock, as one other poster pointed out. In 1980, clocks were very important. There were no VHS (not many, and people today still cant set them correctly) or DVD players or Cable boxes or iPhones etc to constantly show the time. I would find it hard to believe that a person back then would have on display a clock that didnt work. It would be as annoying to us in 1980 as was a blinking VHS clock was in the mid to late 80's, as it is today to not have a device that functioned with a clock at our immediate disposal and view.
Another poster said that the quality of the tape would make a difference. Yes, but, not that much. The quality of the tape could help the tape keep the video longer and better. Though, I doubt that if this video were shot in 1980 that it was to VHS to begin with, and even TV broadcast quality back then was NOT anywhere NEAR the quality of this particular video.
This vid was shot digitally, at 720 x 480. One poster mentioned that it could have had the subitles added with modern equipment. While that is true, it does not explain the fact that the video is of higher resolution than what was available in 1980.
My PROFESSIONAL opinion.
