Can anyone figure this out?

Liberation Begins - 5DMK3 OLPF Removal Day 2 on Vimeo	Small | Large

I love the look of this video. the video is basically focusing on the fact that he removed a filter within the 5d mark iii. but im trying to figure out what color correction/or lens or what he was using to achieve that look. It seems people have asked in the comments section but the uploader doesn't seem to respond. I feel like this look is possible to be achieved without removing this filter. if anyone can give some insight that would be awesome.

It's difficult to guess at what the exactly the shooter did to achieve this look but here's how I would approach it:

In some clips, the glare coming off the water suggests that a polarizer was not used, but in other clips it looks like a polarizer may have been used to capture the raw footage. In any case, do you have adobe creative suite production premium or master? I am fairly certain that you can achieve a similar look by processing the clips in adobe after effects and then composing the sequence in premiere pro. I would specifically experiment with carious "channel effects", "color correction effects", or "stylize effects" in After Effects.  I think there might even be a few preset effects in Premiere Pro that you can tweak to mimic the suppressed and somewhat vintage look of the video. Good luck!

Still seems surprising removing the filter, tuned for stills, would make such a big difference. Maybe if they applied RAW ACR-like pre-demosaic sharpening as you do when processing stills, sharpening of a low say .5-.6 radius instead of Canon's 1.0 it could help get there without removing the filter?

It looks like he just adjusted the hue to a bluish tone via basic color correction.  There are some presets in Magic Bullet Looks that look very similar.  Either way whatever it is it didn't take much time or effort.
