It has been discussed in other forums. Usually most think it is a spoof but the guy is for real.

It is true that to use Tarptents (and tarps , tarp tents...) you do need a bit of skill, however if you just take a casual look at the way the tents are meant to look when set up correctly, you will notice that that guy has no clue at all.
The tent is floppy and the guylines are set incorrectly.
BTW note that he could not figure out that if you open the beak that will avoid you crawling under it. Very much like it helps getting into any tent when you open the door panel on the fly...

As for stability , have a look at this video :
