It's his interpretation of the piece. I doubt he is trying to play the original version. It is a boogie-woogie improvisation on the theme of "Flight of the Bumblebee". Don't take it too seriously.

It was WAY too fast. I'm sure the player has great talent, but when you play that fast, you wind up missing many of the notes.
