Wow! I was just going to share this exact video, then I clicked on your link!

"The admiral said we don’t understand something. Our recognizance tells us
that the flag has been hit directly again, and again, and again, and it is still flying.
We don’t understand how.
Now we are about to bring every gun for the next three hours on that point.
Francis Scott Key said the barrage was unmerciful. All he could hear was the men
down below praying the prayer-” God keep that flag flying where we last saw it!
Sunrise came. He said there was a heavy mist hanging over the land. But the
rampart was tall enough-there stood the flag, completely nondescript in shreds. the
flag pole itself was at a crazy angle, but the flag was still at the top.
Francis Scott Key went to shore to Fort Henry to see what had happened.
The found that the flag pole and the flag had repetitive direct hits. When the pole
had fallen, but men, fathers who knew what is meant for that flag to be on the
ground, although knowing that the British guns were trained on it, walked over and
held it up until they were killed. Their bodies were removed and others took their
place.
Francis Scott Key said that what held the flag that that peculiar angle were
patriot bodies."
