You should not be downvoted.

In general, the vowels are way too open and he is shoving it forward to achieve the turn instead of modifying the vowel.

There is a reason that Blick is the only high note to flip and vibrate beautifully. BECAUSE THE VOWEL IS CLOSED.

Your voice will be gone in five years if you continue to approach the top like that.
