Well ordinarily I would agree but think about this for a moment... A lot of phone cameras have the video set for MMS, meaning it cuts the allowed time you can record, as to keep the size within sending limits... A lot of people don't know the first thing about their phones, they can make a call and take a picture and perhaps browse the web and thats about it...
So it is plausible that he is in this category...
On a side note it is not like you to be skeptical, lol... I've seen you promote some very dubious looking videos, I'm rather surprised... I have watched this one over and over and I can't figure this one out... I'm not buying the mountain top nor the building nor the statue argument... The triangular shape beneath the light is at a funny kind of angle and it appears to be kind of roll top, cool video in my opinion.

Check 0:18 ... the aircraft has it's flaps deployed - you can't fake that !!! It's definitely not flying in 30000ft - more like 3000ft ..
Than the building or mountain is more reasonable!

This would not be that difficult to fake with CGI. I don't know why a few have said that. Its rather ambiguous and not a whole lot of detail is there. As someone already said, this does not look like a plane at 30,000. Since we know that wasn't true, everything else should also be suspect. Obviously, the uploader was not being completely honest.

Why can't this picture be from 30,000 feet? Here is a picture from an airplane window at 30,000 feet at sunset of clouds...they look very similar to the ones in the video.
Clouds at sunset at 30,000 feet
If this is actually at 30,000 feet then it rules out any skyscrapers or mountains. I did a google images search of over a dozen American cities and their nighttime skylines and I couldn't find any that had a blue light on top. They all had red lights at the top and most of the tallest ones had towers on top. Miami almost worked, one tallest building but it had the red light on top without a tower.
So, the blue light is what gets me. I saw the post about the weather beacons on top of skyscrapers, such as in Boston, the Berkeley Building, but even on that one it says steady blue light...all clear, and obviously in this video, it's cloudy, not clear.

It takes a fair amount of intelligence to use CGI. That's not indicated by making up a backstory claiming a flight on an airliner into a city that the airline has never served. Or to claim an altitude that is so clearly belied by the flap setting.

I know
I think my DNA might've reactivated or somethin' because now I can see through everything!
Because I've been nursing this thread almost from the beginning, this "brother wrestler" has not only stuck his foot in his own mouth, he has also kicked his own arse a few times too. He constantly contradicts himself. He is now taking off comments that have to do with the Revel Casino which, this probably is thanks to a phenomenal member who looks incredibly like me but, I forgot his name (sorry, my Star-Brother)

Strange only one person got the video. Can anyone keep a steady hand when they videotape?!! What about pilot or cocktail waitress observations?!

Yeah, after I made the post (before I read all the way through), I went back a few pages and found that. I searched the Revel and its location on google maps to the airport. It lays out perfectly that the plane is landing coming in from the ocean and the building is sticking out over the clouds. Nice find. I still couldn't find the blue light on that building but I'll take your word for it. I'm glad I didn't offer up a flag and star for this one. That's why it's usually good to wait until the video or photo can't be debunked so easily.
