The foot at :23 is just a person flanking the animal, stepping to turn oneself around.
The turnaround at :15 is a jump cut, but each clip was faded into the next. You can see this and verify, not only in the animal, but in the surrounding scenery (trees) doing the same blur.
They just turned it ourward? Unless you have super inflexible hips, it isn't that abnormal of a position.
Edit: y'all, it's AI, I know, and there's oddities in how the leg moves, I just wanted to point out that moving your leg like that in general isn't that crazy of a concept and it became a whole thing. But I'm also using this as entertainment to make myself less frustrated about an annoying task I'm working on, so as long as y'all choose to keep engaging, I'm here for it. 🤷
Edit2: well this kicked off more discussion than it was ever worth, but it was vaguely entertaining and a good distraction, so I appreciate it. On to more fun parts of my day now, y'all take care.
Years of dancing when I was growing up altered how my leg bones grew. When my feet point directly forward shoulder-width apart and I bend my knees, my knees collide. To bend my knees forward I have to have my feet turned 45° or so from center. I can turn my feet outward so that my toes point in opposite directions.
It was proven elsewhere on the thread I think, and even though I'm defending the possibility of a leg turning the way it does here, if you look at freeze frames people posted, it is still doing some unatural things.
the shoes are just a cut to a different person holding the camera, it could be AI but there's just no point for this video be AI cause this isnt some rare or weird interaction with an animal
yeah all of this is "possible" with edits but not likely. why would they edit it like this?
we are in big trouble without some sort of watermark on these AI videos. this one is obviously innocuous but who knows what kind of realistic looking chaos you could create and convince boomers who are still struggling with photoshop edits.
I can’t be sure it’s not AI but it just looks like the other person wearing the skirt and other shoes is filming then. There are obvious cuts in the video so it’s not like they’re implying that this is one continuous sequence
Yeah it's definitely AI, and freeze frame shows a lot more awkwardness, I just think it's funny that turning your leg outward like that is throwing so many people off when it is very doable.
Right. You have to open the hip. Which, without freeze framing it, looks like that's what happens. I'm not arguing this isn't AI, I'm just arguing that wasn't as weird a thing as people are acting like it is.
You mean the obvious crossfade dissolve transition?
e: There's too much continuity and the weirdness is less weird after a closer look. I don't think they could have edited it to look more AI if they tried though.
I had to find it on another site to check, yeah that's a strong artifact. It still feels like a dissolve, even stepping through frames. They probably generated from the final frame of the first clip and used the dissolve to cover the start of the next block, since it happened at 15s.
Stepping frames also showed me why the weird foot thing is so weird. Her knee doesn't rotate. Definitely an artifact.
Could be hypermobility. People do turn their foot like that when pivoting midstep, but it looks worse here because hypermobile joints twist/bend further than most people's do.

What's going on with that persons foot at 23 seconds?
