I won't say, that someone did it with aftereffects. It is a lot of work and the behaviour of that egg block is too natural. In addition the car is involved in collisions with the egg. That's really hard to fake.

So in my opinion it is more likely, that someone edited his gamefiles with the right programms and a good amount of knowledge.
Here you have to ask yourself, why is the egg not in the center? Probably because that person just edited the textures of an already existing block. The block 3-5-2 fits perfectly with the collisions shown in the video. It seems reasonable, that the egg block is just a copy of the 3-5-2 block, but with different textures.
The new folder, where the egg-block is in, is actually not new. It is the podium-block folder, but just moved between folder 1 and 2, so that it seems new. You see, that the podium-block folder at the end is missing.

This is my guess. I am not sure, if it's right, but from my point of view it is reasonable and more probable than the aftereffects editing :D

What bugs me most is that trackname and author isnt shown anywhere.
Is there a special reason why?

If you watch closely in the first seconds, you can see that the top of the main menu is cut off. So later on you can't see the track info because it's also cut off.

But that would kill the topic. He wants to see how many pages it goes.
