Accessible description of video:

first a scene from Airplane! (1980) a closeup of Lloyd Bridges with a puffy face and a silly grin, he is sniffing glue. zoom out showing that all of his hair is sticking straight up. pan right to show air traffic controllers walking around, but they are upside down -- the camera is upside down and so was Lloyd. (that's why his hair was sticking up and his face was puffy)
Cut to a night scene from Starman (1984) showing Jeff Bridges standing naked, his arms out with his palms up. a small bright bluish light is next to him about shoulder height. the light slowly moves up and illuminates his head showing that his hair is sticking straight up, just like his father's was.
