What the footage supports
The reported vertical bar is too small and indistinct to treat as reliable structure. The observer's own reflection hypothesis matters because water, viewing angle, and infrared optics can change apparent geometry.
What the public record says
The reporting observer considered reflection as a possible explanation. The public excerpt supplies no independent second viewpoint.

Evidence limits
This is a 21-second single-sensor clip without an independent optical view, range solution, or recovered object.
This is independent editorial analysis based on the public recording and official record. It is not a government conclusion. Assessments may change when better evidence becomes available.
New developments
The short clip and small target prevent the apparent vertical bar from being treated as reliable physical structure.
