you can't just say that and not tell me how he put his nose up (the exact opposite of what you are supposed to do in a stall warning) and even overrode the auto

  Really interesting comment on that video which might give some explanation: The pilots of Colgan Air had to attend a "tail-stall" course about a month prior to the accident. As a professional pilot I know that if I found myself in a stall less than a month after training about it, the first thing that comes to mind is a "tail stall" and the recovery procedure is counter-intuitive (pitch up, not down). A tail stall has very subtle differences from that of a regular and are hard to distinguish which are which. I have don’t know how accurate it is, but it’s a solid reminder how complex some seemingly obvious things to non experts are. https://aircrafticing.grc.nasa.gov/1_3_4_3.html https://aircrafticing.grc.nasa.gov/1_3_4_3.html
