I believe this one was for real! Read below, then watch the video.
It was at an airshow in Argentina, involved a home-built airplane
not designed for significant negative G's, and a pilot flying it over gross weight
and above limit speeds doing negative pushes. Fortunately for him,
he had a BRS (Ballistic Recovery System) parachute on the airplane that saved his butt.
After the first regular speed video pass, it shows it again in slow-motion.
