Obviously, the cameraman rotated the camera 360-deg. /s

Nope ... video at the source.
I've witnessed (and participated in) some interesting aircraft maneuvers, especially during airshow practices. Even though this bird was empty for the loop, it stills ranks up near seeing the SR-71 Blackbird launch, watching the AC-130 gunship live fire the 105mm cannon, and getting buzzed by a B-1 moving low and fast.

It is for real. I have seen those things do hammerhead stalls, inside loops, outside loops, and barrel rolls. I have also seen one take off in its own length.
When empty, it is rally over-powered. It has a super-tough air frame.
After all of these years it is still the best transport plane in the world.
