I was thinking of looking him up and interviewing him. Maybe I will succeed and bring him to Hive. He might even be interested in sharing his travels here.
He said in the video that they wouldn't let him try it in front of the Capitol, but he did it somewhere else and apparently faced technical issues. There is a record set by an American, the one in the video. From there a nice friendship grew up between the two of them and they got bikes tattooed on their legs.
