Is it dangerous? Particularly near the more failure reps. For example at 1:05. I assume it can't be good or more ppl would be doing it..

Yeah, I wouldn't call that a good way to go at all. If you look at the view from the mirror at 1:07, his upper body is in an almost parallel position to the floor - his hips rose up but his upper body didn't keep up. I can't image the sheering forces on the spine in that position.

I envy the strength of his back haha.

It's called back squat for a reason huehuehue.

I don't personally like it but I've seen a number of world class lifters who squat like that both in training and competition.

Layne Norton has approx 10000 hours under the bar.. I wouldnt be watching his videos for tips and tricks but for amusement, this is probably his self developed technique for best stats :D
