Possibly. But take a look at this interview:

Could be a great web PR spoof - what is missing is the alleged location of
the event and witnesses.

There are numerous videos of this being done with R/C aircraft of the
aerobatic type, Extras, Edges etc. So I think it possible. But
usually some damage is incurred. link below

The interview was a bit sketchy, but check out his bio...
http://www.jamesandersson.com/biography.html .This is most definately
a PR campaign for whatever killathrill is.... this also explains why
he isn't in any redbull events http://www.jamesandersson.com/news.html
.. How Conveeenient. Besides most of the pics on his site are
photoshopped to pimp the sponsor.

It is most definitely fakery. If nothing else, the landing "bounce"
is wrong from a physics standpoint.

There's an awful lot "wrong" in that video. But the clincher is that
if you look frame by frame while he's taxiing you can see that there's
no damage at all on the horizontal tail.

That's a con job.

Now that's keeping your head.

I think it has been faked. Woman's voice didn't sound alarmed about the
wing. Plane flew upside down in level flight briefly on one wing. Came to
rest too suddenly after touching down. He was slow getting out -- notice
how slow he was latching the canopy open after it stopped and in his
int4rview he said he smelled gas; I think this was from another landing
-- notice that the right wing doesn't show.

Almost nothing about that video passes the smell test. Just a couple
of observations:

1) The wing root that's exposed just before the airplane turns around
on the runway has no broken spars sticking out of it. Instead, it
shows two nice round holes -- which looks just like the wing root of
an RC model. In this model class, the wings are connected to the
fuselage by aluminum tubes that telescope into fiberglass tubes built
into the structure.

2) After the airplane stops, it sits dead level on the gear, even
though there's ostensibly a few hundred pounds of wing missing from
the other side.
