It's fake.

If you stop it exactly at :25 the board is broken in two.

You might have to work at it, but you can clearly see that the end of
the board doesn't go anywhere. Also the guy is still standing there.
There is a frame blur of him going up - it's a light fragment meaning
it's fake.

Besides, the acceleration would have broken both of his legs at his
hips.


I figured the legs would have been crushed at a couple places, not just the
hips, but is more fun than most of the posts here.
