Struck me as an experienced airline pilot who is an acknowledged expert in his field. Presumably English is his second language (although very proficient,) and he was being interviewed giving good expansive answers to short questions. Whether you agree with his comments or not, they are something he is clearly committed to, and advocates very well.
Albeit likely part of that particular schools sales and marketing programme, this gentleman comes across as mature, knowledgeable, and experienced. Why do you find that scary? Your other comments are simply churlish.
I have probably answered my own question.
