There’s also a visible tank that isn’t just sitting on a sheet of ice, waiting for you. If you pause the video literally a nanosecond before it goes to the next frame (of an employee), you can see Sidewinder’s clear blue sky.

how theeeeeee do you pause at that nanosecond. you have some amazing youtube skills sir.
I don’t see it.
Run through that portion a few times. You’ll see it. If it helps, you can also catch the sky (the big giveaway) while the video’s running, keep your eyes above Master Chief’s left arm, and you’ll get a glimpse of it. Trust me, I’ve wasted enough hours in campaign to know the real AoTCR from the imposters. 
I’ve actually seen that video a few times already without ever noticing it, this most recent time I just thought something was strange about that snow area (at first I just passed it off as AoTCR) so I stopped and took a closer look.
I dont want to be the one that ruins this but to me it looks like the beaches of Silent Cortagrapher and the Spartan is obviously Master Chief because those are the remake graphics not Reach graphics
Looks like sand and if you pause it right during 1:19 while the camera is going up you can start to see the water. My guess is it’s Silent Cartographer.
Okay, so what’s a tank doing there?
Hmm, not saying your wrong. I just don’t see it. You also kinda busted your own theory when you said look over Chiefs left arm. His not in the MP. I looked again and that does look like him from the remastered campaign. Here’s hoping I’m wrong though. I liked Sidewinder. 
Fair point. But something’s wrong with this picture no matter how you look at it. It’s definitely not AoTCR, but that’s the only campaign level with a tank.
Death Island, perhaps? I still think it’s Sidewinder.

I would much prefer Sidewinder.
…What?
…What tank?
That’s sand, not snow…
I don’t even…My head hurts.
It can’t be Sidewinder because he has campaign armor, therefore it’s not multiplayer.
Here is a much better version of that video; 720 HD pixels. The point you’re talking about is still at 1:18 and… Honestly, the clear, blue sky you’re talking about is clearly water to me. The snowy sheets of ice you’re talking about looks a lot like sand to me. And the tank you’re talking about looks a lot like either a dead leatherneck or the base of a rock to me. I don’t see it. I think this is The Silent Cartographer. Thanks for the post though, OP. Keep being on the lookout for things like this in released media… Never know what you may find!

I don’t either. Because it’s not there. You’re seeing the base of a rock, I think.
Then that is one oddly shaped rock.
Do you mean that frame? If yes…
That’s not snow Master Chief’s standing on, it’s sand.
The “sky” right above MC’s left shoulder is actually water. The angle is completely wrong for that to even show the sky.
That grey thing in the upper-left corner (under VLC’s Video and Tools menus) is a dead Marine.
It’s actually Master Chief and not a Spartan III, so it’s campaign and not multiplayer.
And because of all that, it’s definitely not Sidewinder. I bet it’s from Silent Cartographer.

No, there’s a clip that appears for a nanosecond, like an easter egg. I saw it just once by luck as I clicked on precisely the right time… at least I think I did.
I thinks someone with a good video editor/programme needs to analyse this frame by frame if we’re actually to get a good look at it.

Ok, I’m really curious now. I’ve just installed Cinelerra and am rendering the whole video frame-by-frame as JPG sequence. This might take a while, though, but I’ll keep you updated.
Edit: Rendering done; 6,820 frames, i.e. 6,820 .JPG files… ^^ Checking them now…
Alright, done. One word of warning, though: The picture quality sucks and they’re a bit cropped. But if you’re creating almost 7,000 images in one swoop, bad quality - which in turn means small files - is actually good. Otherwise it would have taken much longer and I would probably have fried my HDD. XD
Frame 2,300 is the last frame of the part where you see a Warthog mowing down jackals (which starts at frame 2,233), and the next one, 2,301, is the first frame of the sequence where the camera moves around Master Chief on what appears to be the beach on The Silent Cartographer. This sequence lasts until frame 2,371; the following frame, 2,372, is the first one showing Kevin Grace. All in all, those frames last from around 1:17 in the video to 1:20.
I’ve checked every single frame from 2,200 to 2,400 just to be sure, and there is nothing that even remotely looks like Sidewinder. So, I’m afraid your eyes played a trick on you.
