No, the guy isn't doing what he says he's doing. If you keep the front tire pointed to the outside, you'll fall to the inside of the turn.

The first video shows the handle bar turning left for left turns. It's subtle. Look carefully at the BMW roundel.

The second video shows countersteer in the standard way. The handle bar is rotated briefly to the outside and then it turns to the inside during the turn.
