Move was practiced. He does it once a day just to keep in form.

Plays to a packed house (field) every weekend.

Pulls a lever, wing comes off.

Next year he plans to try with no wings.

If you look closely it seems like that wing hit the right pylon as he was passing through them.

Yep. Watching it a couple of times you can tell it's fake. There is a little bit of different coloured sky that is just around the immediate vicinity of the plane. Plus, there is no possible way a plane will act like that with one wing. It would crash. The last part of the video(when the plane was on the ground) looked like it was computer-generated.

Looked cool, though.:smile:
