Why was someone shooting video of the sky at that exact moment, unless they were somehow connected to the strike?

Apparently there were two missiles fired, this video could have been of the second one with the person starting to film after having seen or heard the launch or impact from the first one.

I assumed it was the second strike. So after the first missile, an observer would have started recording and managed to catch the second.

  No need to assume it. There is a surveillance video that shows both launches and hits. When you cross reference it with the other video you can confirm that the video with the dog was filmed after first missile already hit the aircraft (and knocked out the transponder).

>in the video, you can see a person standing beside what looks like a small cabin. And there’s a little metal tower with sort of cross sections, almost like a ladder, with a light on top. It looks like a security light illuminating the area. And there’s very distinctive rows of buildings that are all identical in the distance. Sounds like an average security camera setup to me. Was probably recording 24/7 with rotating files.

While some of the other responses to your post are more likely right (they saw the first explosion, and caught the second one), I will add that my house is close to a handful of flight paths for a near-by airport. I have plenty of pictures and videos of planes flying in.

Also, why was the guy filming the video in contact with an iranian "journalist" in britain? The right with the right tools at the right time with the right connections. Very convenient. The entire trump-iran situation is very odd. Trump supposedly takes out a very important iranian leader whose only identification is a ring? They respond with attacks that apparently kill nobody. And then this downed plane? It feels like theater, but that's geopolitics I guess. I didn't think anything could be stranger than the Trump-Kim on-again-off-again romance, but here we are. Would love to see the behind the scene truth, but all we get are the media lies.
