Big thread on PPRUNE about this last year. Concensus amongst the pilots was it was reckless and dangerous.

Does look cool though!

What you have to remember to do is a "pulling roll" so that your roll axis is round the bottom wing tip and not the axis of the fuselage. As you roll the fuselage goes up rather than the wingtip going down. Its not all that difficult to do and you don't forget to do that when you think about the consequences if you don't! It was a standard manoeuvre at a display with a large aircraft.
