I just DON'T UNDERSTAND!  What kind of tires!?  What kind of pavement!? I couldn't get THAT kind of traction on dry pavement! (even on my tractor!) 
And you may see me tonight

There's nothing stopping you, except a well developed sense of self preservation of course.  I'm guessing it was done on good pavement with no paint or tar snakes. Great riding though.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I ride in the rain like it could go to $hit at any second. After watching that video...I don't think I'll change a thing.

I would do it on someone else's bike
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Someday maybe...I wish I had that much confidence, even on dry pavement.
