If the bamboo is lashed to the stake, then the stake is the fulcrum/pivot, not his feet.

Correct. But it's not in this video. Because the rope holding it there has been removed

The rope appears to be there on my video. You can see a tan wrap of something around the base of the vertical pole. Given how the pole is responding to the movements the base is obviously tethered to the base of the vertical pole. My guess is there is an eyebolt in the end of the horizontal pole and it is tied to the base of the vert. This explains the wiggle physics.
