Flight Test & Engine out (Video added)

During my flight test last year December, my instructor turned both fuel tanks off whilst I was flying (unbeknown to me as the are located behind us in the aircraft) and I was expected to perform an emergency landing at our airfield. I noticed the propeller was stationery and realising what happened, restarted the aircraft and performed a normal circuit.

Has anyone else experienced this, either during a flight test or been in a real emergency of this sort?

I will post a video shortly of this experience once it's ready.

It is a long video - the highlights are:
Stall recovery - 11m:25s
Engine failure - 15m:26s
Short field landing - 17m:00s
