I loved that thread, people where coming out saying he was honest from his body movements and Eye movement etc.
Hopefully we learn to take these things with more skepticism.

Dr Sals warning
Ive done Loss Prevention work, one of the things we where taught to look for when interviewing someone was if when recalling details they look to the left or right. Right tends to be accessing memory, left creativity, left eye movements can indicate embellishing or out right lying. Thats one of the first things I noticed, on some stuff the man looks right, on others he looks left, when he starts talking about being employed by Nasa for special projects he looks left a lot.
Dude was lying, and could spot it from the start of the vid, yet everyone in the thread was trying to say he was legit.

This looking left or right when telling the truth or telling lies is not true ..in fact it has very recently been disprooved as psycho-nonsense by quite a few studies....

Of course it's no lie detector (nor is the so called "lie detector"), they are so called "Eye Accessing Cues". As with the "lie detector" you need to get an individual baseline (Which you can kill quite easily.) and can derive discrepancies. A discrepancy is not a lie and can be caused by stress etc. (So you need to count personality aspects into your calculations aswell, to not get a false positive.) Lieing isn't that easy to identify (Just google the studies of Paul Ekman; "Who can catch a liar" for example.). Best is knowing a person (baseline), get a feeling for small differences (bodylanguage, voice, coherence of story, eye accessing cues etc.) and - best way to check your assumptions - just mirror your perception and see how the other one reacts.

Aside from the topic:
It is true that there is no linkage to lieing, but it can be used as an indicator (of discrepancy). Looking top left (from your own point of view) is recalling (visual) informations, top right is creating (visual) ones. Horizontal lines is auditive, while bottom left is "self-questioning" and bottom right is the emotional/kinestetic approach. Just go ahead, ask some people "Tell me about your last vacation.", "What did you eat for breakfast today?" or "How do you imagine "insert random future event here"?" and focus on their eye movement. (Or just check yourself from time to time. "Why the hell did I say that?", "Shall I buy the new car?" - the chances are high you look to the bottom left)

Concerning the second video I assume he's lieing (Haven't seen the first one.). Concerning his intentions. I don't think he wanted to entertain, doesn't sound faithfully to me. Just an attention-seeker imho. (His apology sounds insincere to me aswell.)

I would be convinced however, the ears are definitely different!
Do me a favor and compare the two vid's and pay close attention to the ears.
Dr Sal's are sort of bent and crooked, while the apologizer's ears are positioned straight along his head.
I hate to even see this controversy continue but, how did he pull that off?

An actor? Highly competitive profession? Viral marketing to get seen a bit and to lay claim to a meme. Up ones profile and maybe catch a director or producers eye? Maybe to generate a few bucks on the extra Youtube hits? ATS is increasingly media oriented and driven... not a bad environment to "throw out a resume'" so to speak.
My .02 cents
