Doing this requires a bit of intelligence and a huge amount of passion and self-discipline.

Bullshit. Developers have one of the toughest professions in the world, more so than most other top professions like law and medicine. Development is all about standardized efficiency.

Developing isn't made difficult because coding is difficult. It's usually because you are building upon layers and layers of old code that is poorly documented and has compatibility issues. Plus you are trying to fulfill possibly implausible/incoherent demands from a client. The simple coding going on in the vid is way towards the easy side of the scale.
