The “Roman salute” isn’t real, it’s from a movie. The fascists - who believed the Roman salute was a real thing because they lack critical thinking - copied it. It is 90 years old, not 2000.
The clip you linked to didn’t clarify any of that… he just said it was something “no one’s ever done or heard of.” But it has been done - first by some movie stars in a film about Rome and then by fascists. And, well, I’ve heard of it.
