Free 4K and HD stock footage, mostly nature, landscape and aerial shots, all by one photographer (Joel Holland, founder of VideoBlocks). Everything on the site is under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0, so it is commercial-ok with a credit.
Credit is owed. CC BY 4.0 requires attribution; the site offers the line "Video courtesy of Dareful" with a link back
One shooter, so there is no uploader-provenance risk of the kind aggregators carry; check shots with people or brands in frame yourself, as the site says nothing about releases
Not everything on the page is Dareful's. Clip pages embed Shutterstock previews and a Shutterstock discount code. Those previews are paid Shutterstock stock, not CC BY
