Obviously in the more than 30 years of riding, you haven't been on a recumbent lowracer to even have a clue of what the road and surroundings look like in passing.

You may need a video card with more memory or your computer is slow.........or slow connection. That could possibly make the passing surroundings not look right to you.
The video was also recorded at MPEG-4 SP, up to 720-by-480 at 30 frames per second. This is a widescreen format, however I see that after downloading it to youtube, the aspect ratio looks like it was converted back to full screen. This could also affect the way video looks at the outer edges of the screen.
