Great video, great catch. Maybe he used Castlemain XXXX instead of Smirnoff for the fuel uplift !!

I wonder if the pilot was thinking of changing his underwear

@Lonercia Think he had too! :-)
Russian pilots are trained and accustomed to taking all the runway they can especially if loaded. It was also a hot day so there air was probably a lot thinner providing less lift and engine power. I think the pilot knew what he was doing.
