Vodka burner - where was V1?

I'm sure many of you will be familiar with the video of an Il-76 taking off from Canberra Airport, Australia and using every last inch of the runway. Video is 2:25 long. At what point in the video would the aircraft have passed V1 and been committed to taking off no matter what happened?
