Here's an interesting clue.

How the hell do you get a 737 to do that? Looks like a Vmc roll.

That interesting clue doesn't look much like a 737, nor like XA-UHZ, as it has winglets. XA-UHZ did not. The engines look a tad big to be -200 pipes, too.

Appears to be in full stall, coming almost straight down, very little forward/rearward momentum.

As J Burke posted, it seems to have winglets...and the accident aircraft was a -200.

I wonder why a security camera suddenly zoomed in on a spot where nothing was happening....and then nothing. No flare of light from a fire; no smoke.

I kinda think this is CGI.

You know that video is taken from a cell phone recording a monitor replaying the footage right?
