I'm thinking he was actually in violation of the FAR that says you have to
fly high enough to bbe able to land without undue risk to persons or
property on the ground in the case of an engine failure. Granted, he got it
down well, but it seems awful close to a whole lot of people.

If it was preventable fuel exhaustion, well...BUZZZZ...no credit.

I should probably take a point or two off for him cruising "500 to 1000
feet" AGL (according to someone in the video) without a really good
landing
spot picked out.

Additional points should be deducted for him violating the TFR around
sporting events but let's not be anal.

All points will be forfeited and the pilot disqualified if the cause turns
out to be fuel exhaustion.
