If you go back and watch the video carefully, the pilot is wearing a Cartier watch, and the time piece shows up again as a clock on a building later in the video.I also think that the pilot was meant to be taken as Santos-Dumont himself, rather an odd memorial to one of the lesser known pioneers of aviation. But that may be due to the fact that Cartiere released a set of watches named after the man in 2012.
As to the plane it may not have been the 14-Bis but rather one of the Oiseau de Proie (eng : Bird of Prey) derivatives that succeeded it.
