I am suspicious about the originality of those photos and I think Photoshop may have been used on them? Consider the fact that to get so low to that wall he would have had to physically hit and punch through the upper branches of the trees on the left side of the road on his approach and likely damage his props in the process also risking a subsequent crash into the lake? I think the true height is in the last shot of the plane where it is slightly higher than the tree tops?

Also extremely irresponsible of the pilot to risk killing an innocent bystander which he must have been aware of given the sheer number of people present on the road and which he would have seen on his approach - or it is a case of really poor flying!?

I think it's fake.

Yeah I think you're right Kev looking again at the pictures the full one lower down shows it a lot higher up and well above the wall.
And they say the camera never lies lol.
