I'm sticking with gamma ray.  I hope he was wearing his tin foil hat!

@Les - I didn't shoot that video but to achieve panning in time-lapse video you need to use an auto panning tripod and set it to a very slow pan cycle.  They sell them but they can be pricy. I read somewhere that you can get a panning telescope tripod much cheaper and retrofit it for a camera.
