I isn't. Aside from the fact that it's real easy to do that on AAE, it is not possible to intercept a video stream wirelessly unless the stream is coming in wirelessly, which is highly doubtful, not to mention every system would be different.

Also the thing plugged into the iPhone is the inside of a phone charger. Good luck getting one of those to transmit.

I'm no expert but I'll definitely +1 your logic. This is definitely a fake.

One example is that the iPhone (and most of the ubiquitous wireless protocols) don't have the throughput to support the (mega-)resolution that drives that screen.

But you forgot about the little booster device which cleans up the image and makes it high definition

You call mimicking the exact continued reflection of the other billboard ads on top of his "super-imposed" feed, easy?!
I'm not saying its real though.

With AAE, there would be no need to "mimck" it. You can use a green screen effect
