As a pilot that fly's 30% over gross weight (Yes, With Proper Permits And
Special Airworthiness Certificate) in Piper's and Cessna's and max aft CG
turn a 172 in to a tail skid when you get out I can point out a few things
wrong with that take off.

Main Reason,
# 1 Lack of Directional Control
#2 Left Ground Effect way to early
#3 Had way to much flap max 15 Degrees in a cessna overgross......

I got my rating in Amarillo Texas. On a 100 degree summer day (3640 feet
elevation), power is at a minimum. I was taught to use 15 degrees flaps as
a max and keep the nose down until reaching the desired climb speed.
