My theory is still throttle jam, few punches of the brakes whilst he tries to work out what's gone on.. he's not at full throttle when he's going up the hill yet just before he bins it, it's flat out.
Although notice when the brake lights flicker.. it's 4 flickers at the same time spacing and same length - Could it be the ABS or anything kicking in and he's actually not dabbing the brakes but holding them on? As I know plenty of cars will put the hazards on when the ABS kicks in.
It sounds as if it's a lower gear when it shoots off, has he perhaps tried to slam it in a lower gear to try and engine brake? Obviously couldn't react/think quick enough to turn the ignition off/stick it in neutral
Has the driver not released anywhere what actually happened?
