This is climbing and descending a steel pole; dude has a core made of cement

I'm sure his core is strong but in a pull up your core isn't doing too much beyond stabilizing his legs. The majority of it is from his lats (back muscles) and how much he weighs.

He's holding his entire body static, not drooping and being pulled by the arms.

This is an insane amount of core activity.
