A video that claims a giant moon (super moon) rises and sets in 30 seconds at the border of Russia and Canada at the North Pole, circulating on Whatsapp, Thursday, October 7, 2021.
The 35-second video shows a giant moon rising above the earth’s surface, covering the sun for five seconds and then setting.
“This is the moon at the border of Russia and Canada at the North Pole, from sunrise to sunset, it takes about 30 seconds, then blocks the sun for 5 seconds, then sets immediately … If not wasn’t on the internet, maybe we’d never see this natural wonder in our entire lives.

VERIFICATION OF THE FACTS
Tempo verification results show that the giant moon rising and setting in 30 seconds is not an event that occurs in the real world. The video is edited or artificial.
Tempo recounted that the video was first uploaded to the Tiktok account @aleksey__nz on May 17, 2021. He wrote the hashtags #moon #foryoupage #cosmos # 2021 #Odessa #space.
In addition to Tiktok, the account uploaded the video to Twitter and Youtube May 30 and June 2, 2021
Tempo is checking more on the owner of the @aleksey__nz account. In a Twitter post, Alexsey wrote: As the creator I sold NFT of this video to @smaugsnft:

Then on his Instagram account, Alexei writes that he is a digital creator.
Tempo also checks Alexey’s List of Works on his Tiktok account, most of which contain videos of his creations. On May 22, 2021, for example, he uploaded a creation video in which the planet Saturn appears to be approaching Earth. Or on May 26, he made a video showing the moon exploding.
CONCLUSION
From the above fact check, Tempo concludes that the claim of a super moon rising and setting within 30 seconds at the Russia-Canada border at the North Pole is false.
