Also, where is the fire coming out of the missile?

It very obviously didn't fire. It appears that the missile broke loose
when the aircraft stopped and skipped down the deck.

Yeah, I think the thing that is "fake" is the label for the pictures, i.e.
"wrong button". Looks like what happened is that the F-18 landed hard
(which is saying something for a carrier landing anyway) and the release
bolts broke. The missile simply skidded across the deck, while the plane
stopped as it was supposed to do.
