    Is there an actual video of these in action?

    Yeah, I don't think this is catching on anytime soon:

    That is really sweet looking bike and wheel. Especially the second picture. Looks like something from the future. I think they might have to make these wheels out of some platinum or titanium composite since that would be the only thing strong enough to prevent the wheel from collapsing on itself.

    platinum is really weak. They are probably all steel or aluminum with steel parts.

    That is not really new.

    Billy Lane did this several years ago for the Biker Buildoff show on Discovery.
