You guys need to have your eyes checked. This one was definitely pilot error no doubt about that!! Gees!!! Anyone can clearly see from the video that the pilot chopped the throttle on the upline, then proceded to pour himself a cup of coffee before he executed the spilt-s. THEN... instead of banking hard left he banked hard right. If he would have gone to the right he would have had more altitude in conjunction with cramming hard left rudder and applying the speed-brakes and full down elevator he would have been able to slow that F-16 to a crawl and basically walk it in for a 3-point landing......thats what I would have done. But....If he would have only waited to add the creamer AFTER completing the maneuver he would have been able to save it. THE VIDEO CLEARLY SHOWS ALL HIS MISTAKES. OMG some of you are SO quick to judge,....I swear.

As far as being scripted and practiced....Yeah right. I can tell you from personal experience that they fly from the hip. They NEVER practice and they DONT have routines that they do. They all just do whatever they feel like doing next...DUH!!!!!
