This video is not quite truthful as the wrench ‘replicated’ in the video is not the same as the one that was scanned. Someone was cheating in the editing.

In this follow up video the presenter apologises for the misleading piece

Doesn’t say much for the ethical/journalistic standards at NatGeo TV.
