I think it's a rubbish demo. First, he takes a flag made of paper, not a real flag, so it won't show the flapping of a real, full-size nylon flag in the air that would otherwise have plagued his demonsration and which is clearly NOT observed in the Apollo footage. However, watch the flag carefully as he 'walks' the picture of Shepard towards it, and you'll see it move ever so slightly. Air, perhaps?

He also whips the picture past the flag far too fast, and of course a picture mounted on flat card bears no resemblance to a person in terms of how it displaces the air.
