Now how do you suppose this was done?
You can ponder the question while you watch....

Hah, I would have never guessed that!! Super cool!
I did not expect that! Very nicely done.
Red Bull are a fantastic film production company.

4! :D
I don't want to be a snob...but it was done exactly how I thought it was done.
On another note, that guy is so boring. The least amount of style I've seen in a freerunner in a while..although maybe being on a train gave him like artistic liberty.

I'm with Norbi. For all the production work they put in, you'd think they could spend it on someone with any amount of any style. What is he even wearing? Also, you'd think they could have filmed it in good lighting conditions. I got bored and started skipping forward. Juliane guessed it was on a train, but I wasn't even sure what the question was. Unfortunately it didn't come out like a retro video, but badly done green screen work. And that's weird, because it seems like it was all done live.

Yep, I agree with both of you. The only cool thing for me was being surprised at the end (I would have answered 'huge green screen'), but the guy is boring and the light is weird.
I guess it is also kinda harder to make a cool video if you film everything from the same perspective.
It must be fun to create though :)

It's. Not. A. Bloody. Train! It's a locomotive, or an engine if you must be vulgar and uncouth. Calling it a train is like calling a club a bowling pin.
Weirdly, I think I was looking at that loco on YouTube a couple of days ago but I can't find it now. There's a film of a preservation yard with a collection of locomotives around a turntable where they have one of those quintessentially German locos under steam.
Surely the combination of an engine and a big long thing with stuff on it that moves along tracks is called .... A TRAIN.
TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN.

What emily said, the reveal of the loco pulling the rolling stock with the platform on it inherently reveals the train.
Had the loco not been coupled to any rolling stock at all, I would have agreed whole heartedly with the pedantic rant :)
