so, is this a low percentage or no percentage?

At the bars Red5 frequents, that is a high-percentage technique.
This is somewhat lower level technique.
But in the second frame, where his leg is behind him, this can be followed through into a more advanced technique. The advanced version would require him to follow over the top with the kick, pulling his upperbody down and under, thus bringing his heel over, full circle and applying the kick to an opponent in front of them as well.
this can be started with different forward kicks, front stretch, or cresent, or axe for example.

whats he trying to kick? if he was wearing a top hat and was trying to kick it off onto the coat/hat rack then that would be pretty cool and a high level technique IMO.

This reminds me of the Savate "Pirouette of Death", taught by the elite ballet dancer bodyguards of King Louis the IVVIIV

Isn't it high level since his foot end up above his head?

No, it is a closed door technique of the famed style:
Wi Ya Fu taught almost exclusively by the Yuen clan. Once the Yuen clan lived in the area of Hong Kong but recent intrigues have caused many of them to retreat to the hills of the Ho Li forest where they have taught such famous masters as that girl from Bullet Proof Monk.

Simon is right, I was raised in Ho Li forest by a band of dirt trolls. Eventually they couldnt keep up with my appetite for fancy kicks and had to give me to the Yuen clan. Thats when I learned how to kick top hats off of guys behind me.
this skill has saved my life more than once.

with enough force you can kick yourself right in the medulla oblongata and thereby render yourself instantly unconcious or possibly even dead.
so, high percentage if you get it right.
Kung Fu is good for you.
This is a common technique in Cuo Jiao.
I think it's fairly common. I imagine it's used as a follow up to a failed/faked round-house. Basically like how a side-kick would be used, but the angle would be weird since the strike rises from underneath. Plus it allows the practitioner to easily change direction and escape.
some thoughts.
it is actually a legitimate technique from the chuo tui system. I know they practice it and it is in the manual. but, I've never seen it use in sparring/fight, so I don't know how it would be use.Originally Posted by Shaolinlueb
cynthia rothrock used it in that TLC reality show, "faking it" (which caused me to dig this up and thinking it over). in the opening sequence when she was supposedly being "assaulted" in the bar, she used it to kick the "attacker". Of course, the whole thing was a set-up, so I didn't buy how she was using it.
she used when she was clinching with the guy, pushing him off a bit, allow her body to lean forward and kick with this "rear" scropion tail like kick. I didn't see enough power generated to be convince that it would work.

I got hit with that by my first wushu coach in sparring when I was sixteen... not sure how he set it up though, just that he nailed me in the back of the head
That's a legit kick in alot of styles. Like alot of techniques in forms it's abit exagerated, like training follow through motion. It's used to kick the groin and to sweep the leg or legs up in a lot of throws.
