Yes, but as bob jenkins points out, this applies to an airborne player making a landing. In the video, the player is not airborne when he gains control.
.....EDIT: Actually, maybe he was airborne. Took another look. Didn't notice that before.....END EDIT.
Still, even I have to admit I'd pass on this if I witnessed it in real time. Just too bang-bang for any level of certainty.
However, I wanted to stir discussion and in that, I have succeeded.
