I don't think so Chris. It's just a lot of editing and a lot of fancy camera work.
Is it that freeze/shift/angle thing that makes you think it's not real?
I don't know what the technical term for the filming technique is, but they've been doing it in martial arts films for a long time.

No, it was the appearance of the background buildings - they smacked of CGI lighting and detail. Always used to being wrong!!

I'm pretty sure its all real, as that is the latest in the series of 5 gymkhana videos he has made, Wish I had his tyre budget
