It's caused by the cylindric projection of the sphere to the rectangle. From middle left to middle right are 40000km, while at the very top left to very top right is 0km. More information at wikipedia -> wiki/Map_projection

0:26 "Look, a letter L off of Africa, it must be a sign of the Illuminati or something!" Shut the hell up

The only reason it appears to be going so fast is due to the earths curve. When seen as a flat surface anything passing the top will appear faster than usual, because the aircraft has less to travel in comparison to the equator

lol I hope you know by know that this isnt how the world looks. It's a sphere, not a square. The plane LOOKS like its moving very fast, when really its moving the same speed as every other plane, its just showing it get to the destination faster because the globe is stretched out at the top in the video for our viewing purposes.
