I watched the video and overall thought he was a good pilot and safe as there was not a lot people or cars that he overflew. That being said different people will operate
differently and different places will have more risks and that IMO is why we need rules. Also in spite of the best of intentions things can go wrong and that is why we
need insurance. As far as the size yes some of the quad copters are small but I would not want to be hit in the face with one with it spinning blades.
