Great to watch I'm sure, but you have to wonder…

Judging by the rather rapid spoileron application after takeoff it looks like a bit too much focus was made on a fun banking angle than AOA! Hurrah for GE and aerodynamics!

Yeah, looks a bit OTT to me.
Way stupid IMHO. Reminds me of the fatal B-52 "hotdogging". Low and slow.
He struggles to correct after trying to set runway heading on climb away. See the continuous coarse control movements, including large rudder deflection.

Crosswind from right of aircraft.

V2+10 is slow at large bank angles.
However, I can concede that the bank angle might be less than what we think.
Slow, low, dirty... not a good combination, specially if not practiced beforehand.

Only an observer of planes, albeit for over forty years, and not a pilot. Also accept that lens/camera effects may be in play.
The first roll, to left, looks smooth and co-ordinated. That to right looks rough and almost as though effects were not quite those planned for.......
