Yes, the initial collapse is recreated but it’s based on satellite imagery (which is displayed in the video)
Comment on Minute by Minute Recreation of Apocalyptic Nepal Flood
undefinedValue@programming.dev 1 week agoI don’t blame you for that gut reaction, probably the safest instinct in today’s world. That being said I honestly can’t tell if OPs videos are real or not. It appears to be a news agency called France24 but the footage is so surreal as to be indistinguishable from disaster movie cgi and a few of the shots capturing the initial collapse look like they may have been recreated?
What a time to be alive.

France 24 seems to be a legit publication, but it’s possible the glacier collapse video is a recreation. Also possible that it was a state-owned video that they acquired, which is why it hadn’t been shared on social media up until now.
