Both, although the absence of ANY head movement from the helmet cam does raise doubt. :argue:

I wear a helmet cam when I'm out at the mx track on my quad, by getting the helmet in the frame you provide a fixed point of reference for the camera and it makes it look like it never moves...perfectly normal.
I think it requires some skill, nerves of steel, and perhaps a death wish?
For a good motorcycle rider, I don't think it would be too difficult. The hard part is being able to not let the sheer drops on each side make you loose your focus.
Kind of like walking a tight-rope. If you can easily walk a tight-rope that is 2 feet off the ground you should be able to walk a tight-rope 200 feet off the ground....The trick is to just concentrate on walking the tight-rope and ignore how high you are....but for most people, that is easier said than done....and that includes me. :grin:

Now I am reading that the location is a very popular walking, biking and motorcross trail and it is his fisheye camera lens that gives the illusion of a very narrow trail. I wouldn't do it but I'm guessing it is not as bad as it appears on his camera.

Reminds me of the old days when I road dirt. I rode a Spanish bike, an Ossa great machine and had a friend who rode a Bultaco also Spanish. The Bultaco was geared so low that you could have ridden it on the edge of a dime without falling off. However we didn't get quite that far above the level ground, but did alot of hill climbs in the Rockies. The camera could have been a chest mount which would allow for the additional stability.
