What, aside from the VIDEO FOOTAGE? Yeah, aside from that there's no proof. Even if they didn't go through several kittens and managed to snag each of those shots first time, they THREW A CAT OFF A CLIFF and filmed it struggling to climb back up. They had a dog fight a BEAR.
I'm all for establishing evidence and everything, but when you have damning footage like the entire movie, the onus is on them to provide evidence they DIDN'T do what they appear to have done.
Let's put it another way. A tape surfaces of a ritual murder. The person on the tape can't be found, and by all appearances the murder in the video appears to be real rather than staged. The one who made the tape comes forward saying that it was all staged, but won't demonstrate how the claimed "special effects" were accomplished and won't reveal the name of the person being "murdered" on the tape. What would you conclude?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
