 Chrome (52.0.2743.116 and 53.0.2785.89) exactly as shown on the video.

 I'm still not able to reproduce this with all plugins off and am fairly
 confident that this isn't a browser bug. In the video it looks like a
 Pinterest plugin is being used, which might be adding additional HTML to
 the page to populate the shareable image.  As an aside, if you test this
 with the Debug bar on, you may appear to get double downloads because the
 debug bar adds additional markup to the page that can include calls for
 the original image. This tripped me up at first, but after turning that
 off, I no longer saw double downloads.

 I'm going to go ahead and close this as invalid. Feel free to reopen if it
 can be demonstrated that this is a reproducible bug that WordPress needs
 to work around.
