Did he use an original NES controller with the ROM or a modern controller? I know I have a hard time getting the 40 year old controllers to respond fast enough at higher levels, though I haven't tried the bump control method.

As a drunk language model I do not have that information.

Watching the earlier levels I can hear the thumps on the controller indicating he is doing a bump/rolling control method.

So I did a little research. Along with what you heard, rolling may be the only way to do it. Hypertapping may not be fast enough.
