It's forcing him to place his feet side by side, and he can't take a step backwards because of the incline. On a level surface, you can put one foot ahead of the other, and then rock with the recoil, transferring your weight from the front foot to the rear foot.

Honestly. I got a small bruise on my shoulder and that was all. It was my very first time at shooting range. So, it was quite good for a beginner. It wasn’t that bad. Honestly.

I'm a 240 pounder, and if I shot a .458 like that, I'd look just as bad off in slo-mo. Probably worse; this dude's skinny enough his head got right out of the way. The one time I shot a turkey load like that, I darn near broke my nose. Well I can’t say for sure, but it looks to me like he doesn’t have the stock firmly bedded on his shoulder.
