In the video you can see how he zooms into the map in an inconspicuous place. He marks the spot with blue stripes and dots. Contours give the impression that it could be a hill. Suddenly it becomes greener, first you can see fields and trees. Then the user pans to the left and crosses become visible. Apparently thousands and thousands of crosses towering meters high give a bizarre picture.
