a search on youtube for some of victor's technique videos will get you somewhere.
and next time write a question that can be answered. no one likes a dumb post!

Victor does a LOT of cool things, nobody can explain the "it" you're looking for until we know what "it" is.

No, but honestly, its lots of practice. I have been playing for 5 years, and I am still afraid to even attempt that video. I can do some of the things he does, but not like him.
Remember, he is Victor Wooten!
Watch lots of videos, read lots, take lessons, etc.,, and PRACTICE!
