Yeah, makes sense in the end even though it's hard to grasp for me. Especially if the object on top is freely rolling and therefore feels somewhat decoupled to me. I imagined the train below the bike to behave like a tablecloth pulled from underneath a glass and where the glass keeps in the same place thanks to inertia.

But coming back to my initial statement, if the train's movement doesn't impact the point of landing, does it increase the difficulty for the stunts? Or is it more for the nice effect in the video?

It's for the nice effect, it looks cool with that perspective, almost videogame-y, while normally it's hard to follow any stunt in this angle. It's very share-able.
