The video is, with respect, not much use. It just shows Phanom Rung on an ordinary day, with Thai soundtrack.

But I doubt that at 5am on 1st Jan, there will be any BR expat members sober enough (or interested enough) to make their way to Phanom Rung even if they were able to understand what was going to happen.
