That has to be fake, lol, nice

Yeah, you can see they edited his beanie hat in later with visual fx.

wait, is it fake? That sh*t is crazy!

That guy has too much free time.

That was unexpectedly hilarious!

I'm guessing he's a surfer or skateboarder or something?

I don't think this is fake. If it is, it's a really good fake.

It's possible and not really that hard. Why would they fake it? It's not fake.

how bored do you have to be to try to be good at this?

I love how people say 'not really that hard'... yeah, you try it.

I would definitely say NOT FAKE, but dang, that's impressive!

Pretty good fake, but not good enough.

At first I was sure it's real, but after seeing two replays I call it fake.

-the guy would've fallen backwards at 0:26 and 0:32, because there's clearly no balance; he's leaning too far back.
-the chain pole isn't moving (the vertical distortion line helps indicate this).

But it's impressive nonetheless. Although if the shadows had been made a little bit better, I'd probably had dismissed the calls for fake completely. They were really nicely done and I can't indicate a single specific moment where to nitpick on, but they just seemed 'unreal' throughout the whole 10 or so seconds of 'surfing'.

This does seem unreal I admit.

But when searching for this clip I ran across another one where Pro skating Legend Christian Hosoi does the same thing on a chain in San Diego: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gSOz21jOKk

His moves are not as extreme, but I think this is quite possible to do with a bit of practice and if you are flexible and have good balance.
It might be even easier with the extreme swinging motion than when standing still.

Remember, there are lots of people out there with amazing body skills. Just look at David Elsewhere, his movements seem fake too if you apply the same standards.

I still think it's real, and would like for anyone to prove otherwise, as I've seen/read nothing to change my stance.
