Ear shadows gave away a fake Biden clip before the face glitched

I kept seeing people focus on blinking or skin texture, but in that 3 minute speech video from last week, the ear shadows stayed fixed while his head turned 10 degrees, that broke the whole thing. Software like this still maps ears like stickers, so I check them before anything else now. Anyone else got a body part tell they trust more than the usual tells?

July 2nd I checked that same clip and the ear shadow thing just doesn't hold up for me, because lighting from a window can shift shadows in real time without the head moving much at all. You're basically betting your whole call on one angle of light that the average editor can fix in two minutes with a simple mask. I trust audio lag way more than any body part, people rarely think to sync the room tone when they patch words together.

Yep. Audio lag tells you when things were cut. Shadows just tell you where the sun was.
