@TheBirdName - it's the same technique, just done with your tongue on the harp and your airstream off of the side of your tongue. Naturally, it helps when you are comfortable and used to the tongue-blocking embouchure, since it takes some getting used to it, especially if you are used to puckering overbends.
Not sure I can say this without offending some but this is what JR would do if what he did was musical. Stunning.
