The image is more shocking as you don't know why the person is pointing a gun at a random person and there is an element of surprise as you don't know the background of the photo. The video tells the background and why the hostage is being taken hostage. In the image it looks like the guy is threatening but actually the video shows that the hostage has been shot on the spot. This does make it shocking knowing that the guy has been shot on the spot even though he surrendered but I think the image is more shocking than the video. The photo has been captured at the exactly right time and if you didn't know that the hostage has been shot than you think it is a hostage situation.
