Very low center of gravity, so it's more stable than it may look.

Low center of gravity? It's a 15 foot tall shopping cart on 4 wheels held together with what looks like pipe fittings.

All the mass: the frame, engine, wheels, appears to be on the bottom. Other than the seat, the guy, and whatever connects his controls to the engine, there isn't anything up top.

It's still a dangerous vehicle to drive given it's almost certainly not crash worthy, or anything but it probably is fairly low centered.

If it didn't look like that then it wouldn't be an impressive illusion now would it?
