No. The unibody was the second gen redesign: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro#2nd_generation_(Un...

Rossman is handling a first gen MacBook Pro in this video, pre-unibody, and discontinued in 2008.

Not suprised to see Rossman succeeding in mining anti-Apple rage clicks.

Rossman's video is about the pre-unibody, but the first-generation unibody indeed had a heat-unsticks-the-adhesive issue. The EM209 issue (<https://randyzwitch.com/broken-macbook-pro-hinge-fixed-free/>) affected me twice, the second time not covered by Apple (<https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21542522>).
