I was watching it and admiring his "model", then he started taking the body off I was very impressed. Then when he started talking about the engine I nearly fell off of my chair. And when he showed the cockpit with the working pedals and gear box I scared the heck out of my wife when I screamed OMG! LOL

I came across this link, with additional info and still photos of the model. The more you learn about it, the more incredible it seems:
