They call it the impossible turn.

 The point of this presentation is to attract viewers. Unfortunately, it will 
 have exactly the opposite effect of what you suggest. Many of the pilots 
 seeing the video will leave it with the impression that it is in fact safe to 
 try to turn back to the airport. They will retain the exception and forget the 
 rule. The pilots most likely to do this are the same ones who are already 
 prone to make this mistake themselves. Pilots who know better will not have 
 their minds changed by the video and will not profit from seeing it, since 
 they already know how dangerous it is to attempt this type of turn. 
 
 Pilots destined to kill themselves notice and retain only what reinforces what 
 they wish to believe; and they ignore everything else. Pilots destined never 
 to make this mistake already know of the danger in the maneuver and don't need 
 to be told how dangerous it is. 
 
What makes you think many pilots seeing the video will think its safe 
to do?  You obviously didnt and you have never even had any flying 
training,
