Stop it exactly at 1:00 if you want to rid yourself of the myth that the left (or lead) wrist stays flat all the way through to the finish. You'll find much the same at that similar stage in the swing of virtually every great player.
I have, from quite a few theorists who don't know what they're talking about--and even some top tour players who ought to know what they're talking about. Probably what makes them say that is that they feel a firmness through the left side through and beyond impact, which is good, and maybe they think that includes a flat left wrist all the way through to the finish. The fact that _you_ knew instantly what happens after impact means you're ahead of the game, IMHO.
Soon as I get some time to go back through some material, I'll post a few references about "firm left wrist all the way through." Nobody _should_ think that, for sure, because it's observably not true. But then, people believe all sorts of things about the swing that are observably not true (like the guy on YT who says "300 yards with no arm swing," or "shoulders lead arms through impact," etc.).
@emncaity yes I've already taken the No Arm Swing fella to bits using simple logic and observation. Some people on Youtube should stay silent on their opinions of the mechanics of golf, despite it being an open forum.

@emncaity No one thinks that. It breaks down naturally after impact. I've never hear anyone say it doesn't...
