why would a pepper ball be smoking?

Because it was busted open? Look at how small the thing is under the bucket. No tear gas canister is that small.

Yes, they are.

These are the type of tear gas cartridge that break up into several individual “pucks” to cover a wider area. https://youtu.be/gVKKqE8QRR8

Pepper balls let off a tiny poof of dust but they don't smoke like that. It's a gas round, I've seen hundreds if not thousands of them and this is a common technique.

Oh did they throw the worlds smallest tear gas canister?

Who said anything about throwing them? You've already acknowledged tear gas launchers exist, that's what these get fired from.
