Homemade Dyno!
"Tuning an engine can be a delicate procedure. There is a lot of time and patience required to dial things in just right. You can spend hours and big dollars adjusting parameters on an expensive professional dynamometer –or you can be a crafty Scandinavian and homebrew a dyno right in your yard.
Apparently, all it takes is the rear end from a heavy-duty truck, some straps and a quick skaal to Odin. The result is a snowed-in dyno that can tune all the V8-engine-swapped drift machines in the neighborhood"

How do you vary load? Hammer chunks of 2x4 under the tires?
Just about everything about that video, from the brass fittings and vacuum hose for a fuel system, to the "dyno", would make me reach minimum safe distance as rapidly as possible.
Shouldn't surprise me the term "drifting" is involved here.

I agree, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that thing while it was running either.
