So what, besides nuts, is a dead stick take-off?

Your sense of it is correct, CJ.
It's a stunt.
If this had gone badly, this guy would be a candidate for the "Darwin Awards".
His type will eventually succeed in making the news.
Just hope he does it solo.

Can you pull of a similar stunt with rotor? I know you can autorotate but under the same experiment would rotor be able to *fly* from that amount of runway length?
