Hover checks and clearing turns

In this age of everyone posting video of their every flight on various helicopter sites.
Whatever happened to hover checks and clearing turns before departure?
Seems a lot of folks just yank it off the ground ( a darn good way to roll over ) and commence an immediate combined pedal turn and nose down attitude and depart.
They are also doing commentary on the flight will doing this.
