Your video clip is obviously badly encoded, the mismatch between the
bitstream and container aspect ratios is proof enough of that. One of the
aspect ratios may be the correct one, but there is no certainty, and you can
not know what stupid processing was done too.

Wild guess: 720×480 16/9 NTSC DVD frame, cropped to 720×470 to remove dirty
edges, then for some reason upscaled to 480.
