'Tis not a fake. The problem with the a340 test was the fusible plugs failing to melt at the correct temperature, leading to tyre overpressure explosions that put flammible material in contact with the brakes. In the 777 test you see the tyres deflate before the five minutes is up, but this is perfectly allowable. The a340 test was repeated with different plugs and all was well.
It's worth bearing in mind that your fusible plugs may perform just as badly when you reject, whatever type you're in. Always a good idea to get the fire services to your location pronto, even if all seems well initially!
