No this is irrelevant -- he's just turning on the selfie camera by briefly swiping sideways. It's completely harmless.

So interesting that it is activated so instantly. I am going to test this.

It would be pretty bad if it didn't activate immediately. This actually gives me more confidence in iOS. Any time the camera is accessed, even if for one frame, the light turns on and stays on even after you're done.

This is an excellent point.
