If you're talking about the aerial shot, the altitude of the plane is much higher than that. Those are baseball fields on the left and the light poles at the fence are probably around 50 - 75 feet high, about the height of mature trees. My truck at the bottom right is a GMC Sierra king cab, which is around 17 - 18 feet long, and that's me standing in the parking lot, and I'm 6' 3". This is at LEAST 150 - 200 feet up, if not more. The roof peak of my house is 27 feet tall and even at twice that height I wouldn't be looking down on baseball field lights, even at a distance. I circled the field at maybe 300 feet out from where I was standing.
