It's probably real, but at the very least it's a double exposure.  But it
might be photoshopped to "improve" things.

Just like the famous Colorado Springs anti-Edison propaganda photo:
first take a picture of the dangerous discharge in total darkness ...then
fire a camera flash while the researchers calmly stand right next to the
apparatus.

Notice that in the video, when the plasma-toroid is about 8" above the top
of the device, the small tube is incandescently hot, and is lighting up
the walls of the room.  But in the still photo, there's not even a glimmer
from the electrode region.  Something's fishy!
