I also came to the conclusion that it was produced. What is the likelihood that a student would be videoing the professor just before this happened? (I turned up the volume to figure out what the class was about and it was some first-day blather.) And if this was not staged, how likely is it that the student making the tape would know just where to pan to zoom in smoothly on the offending caller? Although the title is something like "enraged professor flips out," he seemed awfully calm to me, in spite of the drama of the gesture, and, curiously, the class makes zero response.
Its a fantasy video . . . which raises the respect question just the same. I know of any number of people who wish they were the professor in the video. Reminds me of the staged, rip up the cheating student/confederate's test paper right there in class. Another academic/urban myth? Claudia J.

I'm surprised that there has not been any further discussion of this video. Is it because there is a sense that this was a staged event?
