What do you say about this video :

For the video clip. The lift is good. But it's bad when he lowers the bar slowly. Look at any competing athlete, none will lower the bar slowly, all will lower the bar as quickly and as safely as possible. Slow is not safe when lowering the bar especially for the deadlift where we just lifted a heavy weight.
When we lower the bar, we perform an eccentric movement. During the eccentric movement, we contract our muscles less than when we lift the bar. Bear in mind, we just expended some strength to lift the weight. After what we've learned about the job of the back, lessening the back muscles' contraction is a bad idea. It's like saying it's OK to round the back when lowering the weight. No it's not OK, it's never OK.
Look at the link about Analysis of the Deadlift that LOL posted. You will find three links to video clips of Andy Bolton and Benedikt Magnusson. Observe their technique. They must have perfect technique to lift such heavy weights. Otherwise they'd hurt themselves. Notice how quickly they lower the bar after the lift-OK signal.
But even if the lowering part is not good in the link you provided, it's still good for the lifting part.
