ok now record it again, but this time zoom out and show more of the sky the way the human eye would naturally view this

I wish people didn't feel the need to portray awesome nature as more awesome than it needs to be.

Reality really can't keep up with it.

conversely, I have seen some truly jaw-dropping scenery in nature, but when I tried to get a picture or video of it, it didnt even remotely translate. So I can understand why sometimes people try and spruce pics/videos up, to try and give a better sense of what the view is actually like

Yeah these armchair experts have definitely never tried taking a picture of a mountain. So hard to create the true feeling of scale with something so massive and often at a distance.
