At 2:43 or so in I think those are scattered bent fuel rods with some pellets laying in the center of the grayish flat debris? Smoking?

1. Do you know the source of this? How do you identify #4 spent fuel pool?
I'm not questioning the video, just wanting more information. Thanks.

3. That is #4 I am quite sure
You can tell by how the roof is blown out.

Here is the users videos he is in Japan so I do not know where he is getting hi def drone video.

6. You are correct!
ok, so that one does not have anywhere near as much in the pool. I am very curious to see #4.

Can someone eyeball that debris and confirm its not rods?

11. I didn't see any the same diameter as what Gundersen showed in his video.
But that doesn't necessarily mean these aren't reactor rods. They could be a different diameter for various reasons.

Looked like building debris to me though.

2. At the 50 second mark;
As the camera peers into the void, is that one of those 'impossible' objects Mad Magazine liked to portray?

4. My suspicion is its very radioactive to hold the lens right at it for too long.
It happens a few more times, like when it zooms in on inside the pool for a few seconds its really bad.

It happened in Chernobyl videos with white spots also but I didn't know digital video could artifact.

12. These artifacts are typical digital video noise
The white spots at Chernobyl were caused by radiation interacting directly with the CCD; radation isn't focused by the lens so it shows up as white speckles. The image breakup here looks more like marginal comms on a digital video link. You see the same thing on digital satellite TV when it rains heavily, or on the new digital broadcast TV if you're toward the outer limits of the viewing area and the weather gets bad. In this case the drone probably has a relatively low power video transmitter and is getting in the shadow of something from the receiver.
