Welcome to next generation advertising.
Judging by the skills, I'm thinking that's Danny McAskill? He did one for Red Bull too.

- Bikes Not Bombs -
Gotta love those road bike trials.
Makes me wonder how they don't get pinch flats, though... tubeless set ups?
A couple kids from my LBS made a video like that too. (not as impressive)

Jumping the set of parallel bars at about 3:20 was simply astounding. Especially on a road bike!
When I was at Frank the Welder's shop a couple of weeks ago, a kid was there who was riding one of Frank's bikes set up to specifically do these sort of tricks. It had no saddle or seattube and was equipped with a fixed rear wheel and a BB freewheel. It of course had jumbo wide tires.
The kid was rather amazing as he hopped out and into Frank's shop through the loading dock. He did all sorts of amazing spins. It was quite a thrill to watch him in person.
