My guess is Fulton MX-993/U or the equivalent model from the 1960s.
I think the right angle model is MX-991/U.
 
Available at Walmart but sold by 3rd party...
Funny link..

Edit: Not sure it's a Fulton held by NASA worker. Where is the sliding side switch, and what's that black oring around head. Looks like possibly a twisty on/off 🤔

I think I can see a metal/silver coloured switch in the video. It's more noticeable on the lights on the left and right of the screen. The guy in the middle is maybe holding the flashlight with the switch away from the camera.
Also there appears to be some sort of folding loop on the base of the tailcap which looks like the Fulton.

On the other hand though, I can't find any pictures of a Fulton without a black painted switch.
