At the end of the 30 years, the buyer in the video would not own the house. He would still owe $1M in order to own the house (if the market is good, the house could very well be worth more than $1M, but that is besides the point).
The amount that he was paying monthly goes towards paying off interest on the loan, property taxes, etc. only.
