I would certainly hope for the sake of the people who filmed this, that they got the necessary clearances for authorities to pull this off -- or otherwise be prepared to face legal consequences *if* in the remote chance that there was some personal injury or property damage as a result of an accident.
Even a "toy" helicopter could become deadly if you're not careful...

Not to say that one should ban such things, but operators should not take it lightly "just because" it is considered a "toy" -- they should operate them responsibly and make sure they're operating them as safely as possible.
