That'll only work if the video was shot in true 60 frames per second instead of 
2x the NTSC 29.976 frames per second AND the AC power for the lights was rock 
solid on 60 hertz.

With anything else there will be drift in the flicker, caused by the lights and 
the video recording going in and out of synch.

Old or inexpensive fluorescent lights have poor or no filtering in their power 
and control electronics so they have a 50 or 60 Hz flicker. The human eye and 
brain of most people just filters it out with persistence of vision. The quite 
slipshod frequency regulation of alternating current electricity everywhere 
just makes the problem worse to deal with when recording video.

If you can't synch your camera to the local power, do a short test recording to 
see if you get flicker. If you do, use a DC powered light or an AC powered 
light with good filtering to try and fill in or overpower the flickering lights 
on what you're shooting.
