A crowd in front of the hangars. Were they holding his beer? Bet this was not the first time that has been done there.

​​​​Scary but do-able,I should think; until the roll stopped. I know that is obvious. Question is; why stop the roll? All my aeros were/are done above 3000 agl, so would not attempt to answer my own question.

They would have been confident of the outcome going in. Ray Hanna did most if not all his rolling going up hill (always exceptions I know). Did that give him a big margin for error? It kept him alive.
