You hit the nail on the head in describing King. This may sound cliche to reference "Raining Blood" but if anyone has actually taken the the time to look at the tabs for the little bridge or whatever he does at about 1:10 they'd know that it's ridiculous. Not necessarily finger placement or anything like that but just blinding speed.
