oww come on!
there is more than enough information in that clip!
-more than 30 degrees of bank was applied, (bank angle bank angle)
-the sink rate was exessive (pull up pull up)
-When the wings are finally more or less level, it takes only 15 seconds to touchdown
-during those 15 seconds, sinkrate warnings go off so the sinkrate is at least 1200fpm.
-15 seconds at 1200fpm is 1200/4=300 feet when he rolls his wings level. And that after a tight turn at more than 30 degrees of bank!
-there is a large trim input on short short final, you can hear the trimwheel whizzing like crazy

OK that is the info in this little movie. What a show-off pilot he must be!
