As far as I understand there is no real explanation for the measurements and the video demonstrating the Meissner effect apart from faking it. The Reddit thread that you posted alleges that they were faking the video by super-cooling a non-room temperature superconductor for example. Do you have proof that they actually are so crazy to fake a certain Nobel prize when their research can be verified in a short time? From my side I will wait a week or two for the reproduction from other labs. You can continue spreading your reddit-based opinions until then.
