I bet you could design some sort of hybrid wing that would allow for positive lift, with just enough negative lift out on the tip to reduce the roll. Maybe not, just an idea. Make a model airplane with similar wings, but one can break away on command. LIttle practice and it could be done.

But yeah that video is bunk. The audio "Where's his right wing?" really shows its an act, I mean his right wing was flahsing across the view finder..... And then when it did break off, it did just that, it looked released. It didnt look like it folded.
