I would have thought that finding the original video, with natural sound and reversing it back to normal would make it clear if it had been reversed here. But it really doesn’t.
But, if this was done as a very clever and carefully planned trick shot, they would have taken great care to get everything just right. Not enough video at the beginning or the end to catch any strange motions. The man’s steps on the ladder cut off pretty quickly, so we don’t get to see him actually climb. That might be easy to spot a reverse.
Played in reverse (a take off, not a landing), all the pilot would have to do after taking off is turn the nose of the chopper back to the camera for just a second. VERY easy to do, especially for a cropduster.
Even the sound, I thought, would make it clear, but it doesn’t. (Unless they edited in replacement sound of a normal chopper landing). But I can’t tell the difference forwards from backwards.
The take off looks much more natural when played reversed (as a takeoff, not landing).
In the end, the only thing I can really say is that the man’s yank on the pull-string looks kinda awkward when played as a landing, but looks more natural when played as a takeoff.
You be the judge. I’m gonna contact Captain Disillusion. If the was set up to be an elaborate trick, everything in this video carefully lends itself to that.
