If you've ever marveled over a hummingbird hovering in the air, or even a bluejay balancing on a wavering wire or branch and you see how the bird's head remains amazingly 'locked' to inertial space-- neck muscles plus bird brain processing and gyros magically absorbing all the errors -- you see how far we still have to go to match natures "6 axis stabilized" Rigs!

 

The guy's video was certainly faked and meant in good jest but all great humor contains an element of truth. Reminds me of the WWII pigeon guided munitions-- which were a serious attempt at the time.
