To add to my list of interesting things that must be checked -
1. The aerial falling first;
2. The Japanese businessman in the helicopter not looking too fussed until near the end, when he seems to tell the cameraman to turn the camera off (see the Spanish clip);
3. The Japanese document in the Italian news piece;
I have some more questions -
1. What's up with the debris being projected high into the air at the end of the German clip? MGP getting a little angry the debris is raining down on him, perhaps?
2. Why is the briefcase handcuffed to the aforementioned Japanese businessman in the Spanish video?
3. The seismograph two of the clips show show off-the-chart readings - does that mean an earthquake felled Chuai? Or was it maybe MGP going for a morning jog?
4. Why do the Tag guards look like terrorists?
5. How did that video showing the escaping survivors survive, if they were hit by flying metal?
6. At around 2:12-2:13 on the Spanish video, there's a screech before the debris starts coming back up. Is that MGP?
Still, incredibly impressive.
4. they're not guards. they're probably tidowave.
5. found in the raft/water afterwards. Just like the camera at central park.
6.probably.
4. They're Tagruato. If you watch at the video of the survivors escaping, the camera occasionally pans across the arm of the guy sitting next to him, and there is definitely a Tagruato patch on his arm. I'll try and get a screen-cap in a minute.
Also, I think I know where the Spanish broadcast comes from, if you note the the TV44 on the bottom of the screen - just spec though...

The reason nobody noticed this till now is the xbox live crisis. It's hitting worldwide!

It just looks like a piece of the station falling away and skimming the surface to me.

complete german translation (its rushed but understandable i spose):
Presenter: 1300 kilometres off the coast of New York 3 days ago , unknown reason, oil rig (the chuai station) was destroyed.
we just received these recordings showing the event in progress from several international news stations.
the videos do not show any reason why this could have happened. even the experts have no idea. at the time of the catastrophe 355 workers were on the station.
the chuai station was opened in September 2007 and is one of the biggest oil rigs in the whole world. the station is run by the japanese business "tagruato" with their offices in tokyo (duh!). the highly technological advanced station was developed by the firm "Zwichau Engineering" from Leipzig (germany) under the leadership of diploma engineer Dominik Möltgen. We asked him if there was any chance something like this could have happened due to a technical construction error.
Dominik Möltgen: looking at the construction from a structural point of view there is no way such a catastrophe could have happened. there is no question..something like that is "physically impossible!
Presenter: though the videos are of very poor quality it seems like there is gunfire coming from the stations platform.
tagruato has been accused before of building and maintaining a "private army". at this moment experts are researching whether or not the chaotic escape of some of the employees can be linked to a paramilitary attack of some sort.
several reports indicated human casualties, however tagruato's official spokesmen denied any losses.
it is unclear if there were Germans involved in the tragedy.

OMFG LOOK AT 1:57 IN THE ITALIAN CLIP!
in the top right, u can see something swimming away from the Station!!!
Do you mean at 1:47? The clip is over at 1:57
It's a boat driving away at 1:47. Probably the survivors who get rained on by MGP.
Where is Tidowave if they were supposedly there? Idiots on the news, buy everything Tag tells them.
Just to throw this out there; the footage on the station is filmed by a Tidowave individual. I'm purely basing this on what looks to be a guard pointing a gun at the video handler.

In the Spanish clip, watch the bottom of the rig around 9-10 seconds in. You can see flashes of light coming off of it from a lot of spots.
