Wonder if he had emergency 'chutes on that sucker just in case? All that practice paid off, glad his wife didn't have to attend his wake.

Not as much of a butt pucker as one might think.
In the take-off he demonstrated that if he overran, the downward fall was long enough to regain flying speed and recover.

You can't do much about the length of your life, so focus on the width.

There IS precedent for how he practiced. Recall 30 Seconds over Tokyo! RIDE SAFE.

Back in the early 70's we had a airplane that was a STOL type working to deliver firefighters and supplies. It had a turboprop engine and could seat 6 folks. We used it one afternoon to check out some timber for a potential sale. ON landing we had a bit of a headwind The pilot said watch this. He us down and stopped without the wheels ever turning. Like I said a bit of headwind.
that guy in the video was one good pilot. wouldn't have wanted to be his passenger.
