"The promo uses 'free fall' sequences that make for a fairly simple optical illusion. The subject is strapped to a motorized pole that runs through the back of his jacket. As the pole rotates taking you with it, the camera follows at the same angle giving the impression that the subject is remaining still and everything in the background is actually moving. Peter also used another similar trick where the camera is attached to you on a kind of stiff harness (no cameraman). As you move around with the camera, you again appear still while the background moves around."
