Description:
Using HiRISE Data - http://hirise.lpl.arizona.edu/PSP_001890_1995 - an animation over the Mars Pathfinder landing site in Ares Valles. The terrain has accurate vertical scaling and is not exaggerated.
The Mars Pathfinder 'Presedential' Panorama is used to show the local terrain in context. A black marker-post marks the landing site during the fly-around.
Data courtesy of HiRISE on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, NASA / JPL / AU : http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/mro/ and the Imager for Mars Pathfinder, NASA/JPL/University of Arizona, processed by NASA Ames.
DEM data generated by Pete Grindrod http://www.homepages.ucl.ac.uk/~ucfbpmg/ (and me!) using ISIS3 and SocetSet at the UCL RPIF, London.

He's referring to the marker that points out the location of the Pathfinder landing site on the image.
I am assuming you are joking.
OK at 0:23 you can distinctly see a black monolith of 1:4:9 proportions. Now, I am nervous and will never get to sleep...
