No, you're wrong. Again. He turned around, THEN they showed the ball, which was still VERY high, and landed a few seconds later. No doubt that he turned around

That was about 10 seconds later. Little relevance.
No, it was about 2 seconds later when he walked off to the side of the tee. Do you really think he stood there with his back to the ball for the entire time? Dude, really, it's ok to admit you're wrong.

It was not "clearly right of the hole". It was in the general line within 10 degrees or so of path toward the fairway from the tee. This can be seen by the mowing path on the tee which orients directly toward the fairway, which has no dogleg.
If you understood angles, you'd understand the height of the blimp. take a look at the ball flight, and watch the ball go over trees on the OTHER side of the lake, and spectators. Now take a look at how far left that is actually is. A blimp (which is at a high altitude compared to a golf shot) would have to be the right of the hole to give that impression. If you don't understand, a geometry book might help you.

This has already been addressed, and from a rules perspective this is all that matters. It is not part of the discussion.
What do you mean it isn't part of the discussion. The TWO players responsible for making that decision other than the player himself agreed on the drop. You try to use a TV commentator as "evidence", but the two people standing on the right side of the tee, with a perfect view of the ball, can't be introduced as such?
