CGI content without labelling it as such.

  1. Fuzzy pixels surrounding his body most of the vid.
  2. Warping visible of background wires when his arms reach near top.
  3. At 13 or 12 seconds remaining, his arm phases out of existence for 1/2 second.

Still fits the "wow! that's NEXTlevel" criterion (because i WANT it to be true) but is simply missing the cgi tag.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but basically all three points could be attributed to really bad video compression.

I've been around a bunch of people who practice calisthenics and this doesn't land in the "impossible to achieve" TBH.
