Sadly, the only place I've ever seen that video is at the Robby Course (been there six times), and (even sadder) since they've doubled the price of that course I doubt I'll ever see it...

Never heard of this way.

I got my PPL in 2003, and CPL in 2006, and throughout my training, insurance/rental checks, subsequent BFRs and six trips to the Robby Course, these past twenty some odd...

The pilot was on a photo shoot with pax, so its not unreasonable to think that he just got distracted and didn't notice his increasing rate of decent. I mean sure, its easily evident from our...

You seem to be assuming the pilot knew he was in VRS. He may not have, hence the decision to "continue yo the rooftop".
