Despite popular belief there is nothing in that vid that suggests this guy acutally does capoeria. He looks more like a gymnast mixed with TKD. Even during the "play" squeance at 4:52 it looks like he never really did Capoeria but is trying to (badly) imitate what he's seen. He's just missing alot of things he doesn't have that rythm and flow that you see in real capoeria.

If you want to see REAL Capoeira in a fight look a Jean Silva or find the Capoeria VT promotion that was in Brazil a few years ago. The vids were floating around the internet but I can't seem to find them now.______

I see a flexible and athletic guy being very aggressive in point sparring against people dumb enough to move straight back. His main art could be ballet and he would do as well.
BTW that video was from 98, check out his website and his 2002 video:
