Thème Magnum Force
La musique joué dans la vidéo À la rencontre du Sniper semblerait être un hommage au thème de Magnum Force, le de la série des films l'Inspecteur Harry. La vidéo en lui même porte un fort attrait pour le thème des années 70.
William Tell Overture

The William Tell Overture is the overture to the opera William Tell, composed by Gioachino Rossini. There has been repeated use (and sometimes parody) of this overture in the popular media, most famously for being the theme music for the Lone Ranger radio and television shows, and it is quoted by Dmitri Shostakovich in his Symphony No. 15. William Tell was the last of Rossini's 39 operas, after which he went into semi-retirement, although he continued to compose cantatas, sacred music, and secular vocal music. The character William Tell is known for hitting an apple balanced on the head of his son with an arrow.
Organizations
Greyhound Lines
The bus that drives by at the end of Meet the Sniper has 'BLUDOG' on the side, a reference to the real life Greyhound Lines bus service. This also seems to indicate the video takes place in the US and not in Australia.

This is both a reference to the 'camping' style of gameplay Snipers employ and the internet initialism FOAD (Fuck Off And Die), often aimed at Snipers in various online games by disgruntled players.
