No kidding. In one of our lecture halls in undergrad, there was a wire that hung from the ceiling. My physics prof would hang a bowling ball from it, walk it to one side of the room, and put it to his nose. He'd then let it go, and let it swing back to his face to demonstrate the conservation of momentum. Even in that basic knowledge that the ball can't pick up speed doesn't make it less exciting, I bet I'd flinch.
For this, he's so very close to edge. I'm sure crosswinds or low pressure areas could lead to significant differences from one run to the next, even if he didn't change anything. I don't know if it's just me, but it almost looks like he got some uplift at that 1:40 pass. Or maybe his rate of descent decreased noticeably. It looks like so much fun. Perfect song.
